VIBRANT BODIES
Trillions of cells dancing vibrantly- Healing and wellbeing through yoga and massage
MASSAGE
There is something so curious about the untapped potential of how the body can heal itself if given the opportunity. Often the pace and pressure of our daily lives throw us out of balance and our body manifests physical and mental tension. As a remedial massage therapist, this is what interests me and how a therapeutic touch can unlock long-held or recently gained aches, pains and tension. In 2013 I trained at North London School of Sports Massage as a sports and remedial massage therapist. Since then I have spent many years working alongside physiotherapists in the Alps treating a range of different injuries and helping tight muscles relax after a hard day on the slopes. I’ve explored different modalities of massage and treatments including; Thai Massage, Manual Lymphatic Drainage Massage, myofascial techniques and aromatherapy which are incooperated into treatments. Every treatment is unique and uses a range of different techniques to help relax, ease restrictions and bring more balance into the body. The treatments help address specific injuries, adjust postural problems and are also to completely indulge and relax. Each treatment includes aftercare advice to empower you with knowledge so that you can better understand your body, help prevent future injuries and stay balanced.

HOT STONE 1 HOUR

YOGA
I believe that the real gift of yoga is in attuning us to the everyday beauty that surrounds us. Yoga helps connect all the separate parts of ourselves and illuminates us from the inside so we feel better within our bodies and so we are open to the world around us. My teachings are playful, intuitive and inspired by mystical as well as modern science. They aim to help you explore joy whilst discovering a deep sense of calm. My classes support you in exploring what feels good for you and what is your most optimal alignment. Whilst yoga takes you on a journey to stillness one of the ways of getting there is through laughter and through a lighthearted approach we can enjoy this journey and come more comfortably into stillness. There is sacredness in the silly and yoga is not a performance, it is a discovery. It is about fully inhabiting your body, being present and letting go of the monkey mind. I am inspired by the natural world and by each and every person that comes to my class. Yoga is for every body and everybody is welcome.

Testimonials
Anna's classes are the perfect balance of playfulness, calm energy and exciting challenges for the body. Her knowledge and love for health and wellness, the lunar cycles, nature and the seasonal changes really adds to the experience. Both her vinyasa and yin classes are truly remarkable! I highly recommend Anna for a hot stone or full body massage also "
