Hi, I'm Sophie!
Thank you so much for stopping by!
Connect with me on YouTube for Art, Yoga & Somatic Practices & Info...
I've been an artist all my life, officially starting work as an illustrator in 2010 & have been guiding community Yoga classes & working 121 with clients since March 2018.
I'm currently training to be a Somatic Teacher & Coach, so you may notice that I will incorporate Somatic Practices into my sessions and content.
​
Why choose to work with me?
​
You might benefit from my support & guidance if you.....
​
You're an older adult, at a point in your life where you no longer find ease or joy in your body, during movement or stillness, you struggle with daily tasks, feel unbalanced or unsafe & want to find a gentle & mindful way back to yourself so that you can enjoy the Autumn of your life!
​
Would like to learn ways to self resource & regulate your emotions &
reconnect to your inner joy. Perhaps if you've been experiencing overwhelm, stress,
anxiety or depression.
​
Are feeling disconnected from yourself & your body.
You've lost your sense of self, your passion and zest.
​
Suffering from an injury or longterm health condition and would like to find ways to move and support recovery.
​
​Want to develop a creative practice and encourage your inner child to play.
​
My approach aims to be safe, supportive, encouraging, open, light hearted and creative.
​
I invite you to sense, explore and make space to get to know your body, shift your mindset & find tools to nurture & soothe your nervous system, through a range of Somatic inspired practices, Yoga Asana, Pranayama (breathing) practices & Meditation, creating a Mind-Body connection.
​
You will find the right tools for you, to help you feel safe, connected and be able to
navigate the challenges of life.
​
You always have a choice, to try something, to opt out, to make it your own practice &
feel empowered by your decisions.
​
I am committed to providing safe, welcoming and trauma-aware spaces and support to anyone who experiences marginalisation, due to any aspect of their identity, background or culture, including the disabled community and the LGBTQIA+ community.
