Understanding Your Pelvic Floor:
- The pelvic floor muscles are located at the base of the core, crucial for supporting the pelvic organs including the bladder, intestines, and uterus in females.
- These muscles, situated between the pubic bones, sitting bones, and tailbone, can weaken with age or following childbirth, either becoming too soft or too hard.
- In yoga, this area is known as the mula bandha, intimately connected with the Muladhara Chakra, the root chakra. This chakra embodies our foundation and grounding in life, anchoring us to the earth and providing the stability to face life’s challenges with resilience and grace.
What Will the Sessions Involve?
- Yoga & Breathing Exercises: Focused on enhancing the movement and function of the pelvic floor muscles.
- Holistic Approach: Combining physical exercises with breathwork to promote both physical and energetic balance.
Expected Outcomes:
- Increased Awareness: Gain a deeper understanding and sensation of your pelvic floor muscles.
- Balanced Strength: Develop the ability to both strengthen and soften these muscles.
- Empowerment: Acquire the knowledge and confidence to continue practicing these exercises beyond the workshop.
Suitability:
- These workshops are designed to accommodate all levels and abilities, ensuring that everyone can participate and benefit.

About me: I’m a Senior Yoga Teacher and have practiced yoga since 1994, and taught since 2014. I’ve trained with many wonderful teachers and learnt numerous styles over the years, accruing over 750hrs of training. I teach an amalgamation of yoga styles that enable me to support women’s health, enhance athletic performance, and manage injuries.
I have always loved alternative lifestyles and adventure, from exploring Tarot cards and spell books in childhood, and then walking into my first yoga class at 14 which was weird and wonderful. I had no idea it would bring such richness to my life. Yoga has infinite lessons to teach us: it offers guides to healthy lifestyles choices, living in harmony with the seasons and nature, even equipping us with ethics to respect ourselves and others. It infuses ancient wisdom with modern science so we have the best of both worlds to make informed choices. When I explored the depth of these teachings I felt like I had found what I had been searching for - the Well Woman movement.
My three children are my inspiration to tune deep into the feminine sources. They guide me on boundaries, help me dismantle the patriarch, and have opened my eyes to further understand how much choice we have with identity. I have much to be grateful for in my life, including the cohort of people that strive to support those transitioning through life with more ease and self awareness. The Well Woman movement is gaining powerful momentum, something I hope to be able to continuously support. I'm currently creating courses for yoga teachers and practitioners who work with women's health, to support them with Well Woman courses.
