Yoga for Back Care Workshop - ‘Demystifying the Core’ Saturday 17th May 2.30-5pm

Join Rachael and osteopath Matt Parry-Jones (Pavilion Osteopathy) in Space Yoga Studio for an afternoon of experiential learning about your core, and why it is such an integral component of your overall health, yoga practice and movement in general.

In this practical workshop we’’ll explain what is meant by ‘the core’, learn exercises to improve core awareness and integration in all movement, and finish with a yoga practice that incorporates all that you will have learnt. We’ll also explore the relationship of the core to posture, breath, injury prevention and lower back pain.

All levels welcome - please book via Space Yoga Studio website.

Reviews for Yoga with Rachael

  • “Highly recommended. The venue is perfect. Great teaching. Great company. Lovely lunch. I feel like I’ve been away from my day-to-day life for much longer than a day and leave with a sense of peace and joy.”

  • “So relaxing - better than a spa day…”

    Yoga Day Retreat

  • “I loved everything about the day - it was such a luxury to do so much yoga, it felt very restorative and so restful…I’m excited to incorporate some of the practices and ideas we discussed into my daily life.”

    Yoga Day Retreat

  • “I can honestly say there is nothing I would add to this, it was a fabulous day…perfect balance of yoga, meditation, silent walk and delicious lunch.”

    Yoga Day Retreat

  • "Rachael's yoga was just what I needed. I found the way she presented her class was unhurried and had options for the less flexible. It was relaxing, yet invigorating. She is very knowledgeable about poses and her voice is lovely. Afterwards, I felt like my body had been stretched in a good way and my mind felt more peaceful. I thoroughly recommend her and her classes.”

    Katy - Online Yoga Class

  • “One-to-one yoga with Rachael is for me like a massage and a workout combined. Every session is carefully structured and each pose is adapted to my personal requirements. Through Rachael’s encouragement and hands-on guidance I have become much more flexible in a very short time and I really believe that it is down to my one-to-one sessions with Rachael that I have been able to return to yoga after a period of injury and feel safe and at ease when practising.”

    Diana - One-to-One Yoga Class

  • “My friend and I attended Rachael and Bettina’s ‘Yoga and Self-Enquiry Day Retreat’ in February. It was really nourishing to spend a day focusing on myself and my wellbeing in a warm, peaceful and beautiful environment with a small group. Rachael and Bettina led the day with a combination of yoga, self-enquiry practices and meditations to remind you to come back to yourself. The homecooked soup, bread and cheeses were delicious too as well as other surprise treats! It was well worth the investment, I would recommend it and will definitely participate again.”

    Jo R - Yoga Day Retreat

  • “The day retreat was absolute bliss, a whole day with lovely people, lovely food, a lovely atmosphere, and a chance to think about myself all day. I don't often do much just for me and felt incredibly indulgent when I booked it, however, afterwards I felt amazingly lighter and brighter and was ready to book the next one instantly. Everything was thought about in such precise detail, the two yoga sessions fitted nicely with the mindfulness exercises on paper. The lunch was a great chance to have a natter and was delicious. In the afternoon it was nice to get up and move around doing partner work as well. I would recommend to anyone.”
