the

practice

  • meditation

    within today’s culture, moments of true silence, true stillness, are hard to come by. It’s easy for life to ‘take over’ and to lose sight of what really matters. Meditation brings you back to your centre, it brings you to that place of true stillness where you reconnect with who you are.

    “The greater access you have to the field of silence, the greater access you have to nature’s intelligence”

    - Anand Mehrotra.

  • breath work

    a powerful practice designed to shift, balance and enliven the body’s energy system. Breath work - including himalayan kriya - harnesses your infinite source of energy within

    the practice, as taught and developed by Sattva Yoga founder Anand Mehrotra is rooted in the Tantric and Kundalini traditions of the Himalayas.

    these techniques work on a psycho-physiological level, they oxygenate the entire body, whilst helping us move beyond the thinking mind - a potent tool to shift stuck & stagnant energy

  • asana

    asana (meaning seat) is the physical practice of yoga relating to the body.

    through my extensive movement training, I have developed a deep understanding of how our bodies can move efficiently to gain strength, suppleness & space.

    Ha = sun, Tha = moon, Hatha yoga helps us to find balance within by uniting our dualities. Using the beautiful practice of Hatha yoga as my base, I implement various other styles including hands on adjustments, allowing you to find space & expansive like never before

  • embodied movement

    embodied movement is the exploration of how our bodies hold our experience.

    becoming embodied is a process of coming home; being centred in oneself and bringing awareness to the way you move, feel and think.

    the body is a physical reference point by which we can learn a lot about our lives. 

    whatever your level of experience, age, or ability, this practice is a journey of expression b e y o n d ability and experience. Here, we move into body time. There’s no right experience to have, only your experience

  • Jenna, sacred self retreat 2023

    “Esmée’s fledging yogic energy was truthful & courageous, bringing a real authenticity to a luxury resort. Herself & the fresh air were the real reason to be here”

  • Amanda - private client

    “Esmée has got me hooked on yoga! After practising sporadically since my early twenties I never quite ‘got it’, but after some 1:1’s with Esmée things have fallen into place. She has just the most lovely manner, is so knowledgeable and adapts each practice to suit your needs”

  • Claire, sacred self retreat 2023

    “The perfect blend of meditation & yoga. Esmée is a very supportive teacher & yogi, adapting poses for people of all abilities, helping us reach our potential. A thoroughly lovely person - look forward to seeing her again”

  • Trish - retreat guest 2023

    “Beautifully organised with each day more fulfilling than the one before. Esmée is an incredible teacher, her presentation, instructions and manner are gentle yet encouraging. She brings you on a beautiful & fulfilling journey from day one”

  • Jane - private client

    “I liked Esmée the moment I met her. I have since had several private and group yoga lessons with her, both face to face and via Zoom. Physically, mentally - I always feel on top of the world after our sessions. I feel this is due to her special personality. She is a really lovely soft-spoken, wise, gentle and grounded person - maybe some of that rubs off… I highly recommend her, I can’t get enough of her classes myself.”
