WORKSHOPS & retreats with lynn
Lynn has over 40 years experience of yoga, 30 years of mothering and over 25 years of teaching. She has trained and mentored many to work in the field of supporting women on the journey into motherhood. Her retreats & workshops are for all women.
I began holding retreats for the women & families some time ago now. These gatherings happened quite organically, as an extension of my group work to hold a place to nurture friendships & connection with oneself and others.
The longer retreats have been on hold but hopefully they will return soon. At present I am offering half day Womens’s Workshops (mini retreats) at Down to Earth in North London and a 4 hour half day retreat in Frome, March 2024, If you want to be kept informed of details email me or sign up for my newsletter.
I can also plan with you a bespoke private circle, such as one to celebrate the new mother & baby to be.

A Workshop for ALL Women
Come together and share a space with other women where we will focus on the idea that less (effort) brings more (ease), and that our bodies are always learning and evolving. The space we enter in yoga is a place to become more in touch with ourselves, many of us are looking for movement that brings a sense of ease to the body, a form of moving meditation.
A woman’s body can crave a more playful and curious approach a place to meet yourself where you are right now. Never more so than during times of hormonal shifts such as within your monthly cycles, the transition from pregnancy into motherhood or the journey that is menopause including the pre & post periods. This is a rich terrain for us to discover new ways to relate to our bodies, ourselves.
Each workshop will have the thread of awareness around our cyclical rhythms as women, within that I will weave in elements of the season, you may relate to this around how the seasons connect to your personal journey.
“Your body is the ground metaphor of your life, the expression of your existence. It is your bible, your encyclopaedia, it is your life story. ”
private retreats
If you wish to organise a personalised circle or retreat for yourself or a group of friends, I am very happy to hold space for you and take the stress out of organising a special gathering.
Ideas for your private retreat could be as a baby shower celebration, a restorative day for a group of new mothers, or a block of tailored yoga sessions for yourself & friends.
I am happy to suggest venues or this can even be accommodated within your own home. I’m really open to chatting through how this could take shape for you, please message me for a no obligation call.
testimonials
“Lynn is an inspiring and nurturing guide to a type of yoga I was unfamiliar with. She has a holistic and intuitive approach as well as a much appreciated respect for body and soul. I loved her workshop!”
“With Lynn you get the whole package, she focuses on the fundamentals of yogic philosophy in both mind and movement. She helped us mothers to gently release the body within meditative movement and postures with a particular focus on healing and strengthening the core in the postnatal period. She directs with a soft caring voice, painting the words in creative detail. Yoga with Lynn left me feeling taller, more patient, clear headed, and inspired. Thank you ”
“Lynn had clearly spent a lot of time, energy & consideration pre-planning our yoga sessions - alongside her amazing experience. There was absolutely nothing generic about her approach. I was grateful for our conversation in advance and her honesty in asking me if I was open to learning. I have tried both yoga & pilates in the past and found both rather unfulfilling. I am a convert, although I fear I have been spoilt by your choice of teacher. Outside the studio her generosity & attention to all of us, and the babies continued - she was always there with a soothing, nourishing word, flexible and attentive to the adults and babies needs.”
“I want to congratulate you on your selection of partners for the retreat. As a fitness veteran - I have worked with lots and lots personal trainers, instructors and therapists. I was frankly blown away by the talent, brilliance & generosity of both Lynn & Sanita.”
