Yoga Nidra

A guided meditation technique that induces a state of deep relaxation between asleep and wakefulness. If you attend a Yoga Nidra event you will be invited to lie down on your back, but you can change position for comfort. You will then be invited to close your eyes and be guided through meditation, first connecting with your breath and body and then relaxing down through each body part to help induce this place of deep rest. The benefits of Yoga Nidra are that it helps reduce stress and anxiety, it can improve cardiovascular health, improves your quality of sleep, strengthens your connection to self and your nervous system - to name a few.

Gentle Yoga

Welcome to Gentle Yoga, a space created especially for women who want to move, breathe, and reconnect with their bodies in a safe and supportive way.

This class is designed with accessibility at its heart, making it ideal for those with limited mobility, those returning to movement after a break, or anyone who simply prefers a slower, more mindful pace. There is no expectation to perform or push beyond your comfort - instead, we focus on meeting your body exactly where it is today.

You’ll have the option to practice either on the floor or seated in a chair, depending on what feels best for you. Every movement can be adapted, and we’ll use a variety of props such as cushions, blocks, straps, and blankets to support your body and make each posture more comfortable and accessible.

Throughout the session, we’ll gently explore simple stretches, mindful breathing, and relaxation techniques to help ease tension, improve mobility, and promote a sense of calm and wellbeing. You are always encouraged to rest whenever you need and to move at your own pace.

This is your time — to feel supported, to feel capable, and to enjoy movement in a way that works for you.

"Samantha helped me and my husband prepare for birth and gave me breathing techniques that helped keep me calm for when my birth didn’t go to plan and arrived 6 weeks early. Each session was filled with lots of information on the science behind birthing, breathing and visualising techniques and going through any doubts or worries we had about birthing. My husband was also heavily involved in every meeting we had. We would highly recommend hypnobirthing sessions with Sam."
Lauren Grimson
"My wife and I are expecting our third child in February. I was really impressed with the course content from day one. As someone who was slightly unsure on what more we could learn, having already had two children, we are now more knowledgeable than ever before on the science behind birth and how the mind and body work together. Thanks to Sam we are now both confident we will have a positive birth. Practising everyday."
David Bow
"Like any first time parents, we were a little apprehensive about what was to come - especially the birth. Knowing we aspired to have a natural and relaxed birthing experience, friends and family suggested hypnobirthing… Sam not only delivered the course in a fun and engaging way, but she instilled in us the confidence we need to know that we can do this. Her detailed yet simple approach equipped my husband and I with all the techniques as well as explaining the science behind them. We completed the course feeling calm and relaxed knowing we’d not only use these techniques during our birth, but during our everyday lives. We can’t thank her enough!"
Jennifer Marie Jones
"I highly recommend Sam’s yoga classes. I started her class via zoom which were great as it helped me focus on exercise during lockdown and have a bit of “me time” in the midst of the madness. When classes were able to move to a hall I jumped at the chance to go to the classes and I’m so glad I did. Sam is very professional, her classes always have a focus and I always felt better after each one. With baby being born any time now I feel that the yoga moves she’s taught me will help me throughout labour as well as keeping me more mobile during the later stages of pregnancy."
Amy Jones
"I would highly recommend all expectant mothers to attend Sam’s yoga sessions. You come away feeling so relaxed and it’s great to carve out that time for you and bump. I love the atmosphere in sessions and how we are encouraged to support each other and learn together as well as enjoy a good stretch and learn valuable breathing techniques for birth."

Jessica Julius
"Sam is so supportive and has helped me so much during my pregnancy… Going through the different stages of labour, talking about calming techniques, the responsibility of partners, making informed decisions and giving us the confidence to do so. My partner is feeling much more at ease as Sam explained everything so brilliantly. Sam also extends her support outside these classes, so any advice needed about any news you might receive in your midwife appointments, Sam is there to send over evidence based facts and give you more info so you can make the decision that’s best for you confidently."
Lucy Woodman
"It's so nice to have a local mixed yoga, relaxation, antenatal, supportive group and the chance to meet other expectant mums. Sam is very professional and enthusiastic. Definitely make the most of these classes!"
Amy Chandler Taylor
"Absolutely fantastic! I only found out about Sam after giving birth which is a shame as I would have also attended the pregnancy yoga classes if I had known. My son and I attended the post natal yoga classes for about 5 months and they were brilliant! The classes were a perfect mixture of bonding time with my baby but also having a bit of time to focus on yourself. Would highly recommend!"

Frequently Asked Questions

A women’s retreat is a dedicated space for women to rest, recharge, and reconnect with themselves through yoga, wellness practices, and community. It offers a break from daily responsibilities to focus on self-care, healing, and empowerment.
Each retreat is unique, but common elements include:
- Yoga and meditation sessions
- Wellness workshops and activities (breathwork, self-care, nutrition, etc.)
- Nature walks and time for reflection
- Nourishing meals and holistic healing practices (massage, sound healing, etc.)
Women of all ages and backgrounds who are seeking relaxation, healing, personal growth, or a deeper connection to themselves and others.
Not at all! Our retreats welcome all levels, from beginners to experienced yogis. The focus is on mindfulness and self-care rather than physical ability.
We have single day retreats to accomodate a day out of normality to help recharge, as well as full weekends away to fully indulge in self care.
Yoga Nidra, also known as "yogic sleep," is a guided meditation technique that brings you into a deep state of relaxation between wakefulness and sleep. It allows the body to rest while the mind remains aware, promoting healing, stress relief, and inner balance.
Unlike regular sleep, where the mind is unconscious, Yoga Nidra keeps you in a conscious relaxation state. This allows deep healing and mental clarity while still benefiting from profound rest.
- Reduces stress and anxiety
- Improves sleep quality and combats insomnia
- Helps with emotional healing and trauma release
- Supports hormonal balance and overall well-being
- Enhances focus, creativity, and clarity
- Can aid in managing chronic pain and fatigue

- An eye mask or soft lighting to aid relaxation
- Headphones (if using a recorded session)
