Powerful Pause Yoga

‘Lokah Samastah Sukhino Bhavantu.’

This beautiful Sanskrit prayer translates to:

“May all beings everywhere be happy and free,
and may the thoughts, words, and actions of my own life
contribute in some way to that happiness and to that freedom for all”.

So many of us are longing to find peace, to slow down, to quieten our minds and return to a simpler way of being. Yoga helps us to do that by bridging the gap between our hearts and our minds, and each other.

When we take time to heal and transform ourselves, we have the power to transform our world.

Happy & free

For me yoga is love

For me yoga is love. It starts with meeting all parts of yourself with acceptance and sweetness. It’s a devotion and commitment to loving yourself enough to show up every day, no matter how you’re feeling. There is no ego or pressure. It’s just about you and your practice. I am a 400-hour Registered Yoga Teacher (RYT) with a passion for women’s health and a penchant for Buddhism, neuroscience, nervous system healing and somatic movement. I’m super passionate about exploring the wisdom within our bodies and guiding people back to themselves through that delicious breath-body-mind connection. It’s magic!

Your Body, your practice.

In 2022 I fulfilled a dream of travelling to the island of self-love, healing and coconuts (aka Bali!) to become a certified yoga teacher, specialising in Vinyasa Flow and Yin Yoga. I returned to Bali in 2023 and 2024 to complete a 100-hour Advanced Yoga Teacher Training and a 100-hour Women’s Rewilding Training, focusing on women’s health, cyclical wisdom and vitality. I take inspiration from the world around me and what feels good in the body - this is always at the foundation of my classes. I love sequencing unconventional flows and using fun and playful transitions to help you get deeper into your body and your practice.

A word from my yoga students

  • ‘Bea has a natural warmth and empowering energy.'

    'I feel like a better version of myself after being in her company. Every class is unique and inspiring.'

  • ‘Bea is the most kindest, gentlest soul I have ever been lucky enough to meet.

    'Her classes are just the right balance of strength and flow.’

I’ve spent all my life rushing, trying to please everyone, and feeling scared of not doing enough. No more. I do not want to always be frantic, always racing around trying to do everything and please everyone. I would like to be a relaxed woma
I’ve lost count of how many times I’ve heard, “I can’t do yoga—I’m not flexible enough.” My loves, yoga was never about flexibility. Real, authentic yoga isn’t about touching your toes, losing weight,
A little throwback to last April when my hair was long! Hopping on here today to give some love to my amazing friends—because if you have good people in your life, it’s truly a gift. One of my friends literally saved a life last night.
March—a month of endings (and beginnings). Let the full moon illuminate the path ahead 🌕 Let the uneven ground lead me to where flowers grow 🌷 Let me discover new perspectives hidden under my feet 🦢 Let me be brave enough to say goodbye,
Saying Goodbye… Tonight, I taught my final Candlelit Slow Flow to Restore class at @thecourtyardcentrebiggleswade. This class holds a special place in my heart because it’s where I truly found my voice as a teacher. Before this, I taugh
