Yoga and Well-Being Retreat in Suffolk 17-19 Oct 2025 with Sam & Verity


Yin Yoga is a gentle, meditative practice that focuses on deep relaxation and the release of tension in the body. This style of yoga targets the deeper connective tissues, such as ligaments, joints, and fascia, promoting flexibility and joint mobility. In Yin Yoga, poses are held for extended periods—ranging from 3 to 5 minutes or longer—allowing practitioners to explore stillness and cultivate mindfulness. The practice encourages a balance between effort and surrender, making it a powerful tool for stress relief, emotional release, and inner peace. Ideal for all levels, Yin Yoga complements more dynamic yoga styles and helps to balance the body's energy.

Yin Yoga Online - Fri 6pm

A flowing Yoga Practice including philosophy, posture, breath-work and relaxation. Suitable for mixed level abilities as variations on poses are offered.

Yoga with Sam is exceptional in many ways.
Her unique classes embrace the body, soul and mind. 
I have been a member of the yoga group for about 6yrs now and I can’t imagine not attending my Sat morning class.  I miss them when I do. 
Sam seems to know exactly what’s needed each week to help release any stress both mental and physical. 
She has a gentle approach and has encouraged an amazing group of individuals who have grown together to become a beautiful family, supporting one another. 
I can highly recommend Sam’s yoga practice.

Jordan Glover

My Saturday morning yoga sessions with Sam are always the highlight of my week. I step onto the mat, knowing that I’ll come off feeling spiritually refreshed and restored. The same goes for the treatments she offers. Her massages go far beyond just self care - they’re a pocket of peace that take you away from the manic everyday. There’s no one else I’d trust to help me connect with my inner self and the world around me more than Sam!

Such thought goes into every one of Sam’s classes. Beginning with a lovely introduction about, maybe a season, celebration, or a particular area of the body. The yoga follows with Sam’s relaxed instruction throughout and ending with some very nice relaxation.
Afterwards, I always feel refreshed, stretched and ready for the day! Thank you Sam

Join Sam for a Yoga flow of movement and breath that generates a meditative state.

Yoga Flow - Sat 8:15am

Classes focus on breathwork, postures, meditation and relaxation . This is an excellent class to learn all the foundations of yoga as it incorporates a series of traditional Hatha Yoga asanas (postures) that emphasize strength, flexibility, and alignment. 
Mindfulness is woven throughout the practice to cultivate awareness and presence. Each movement is guided by the breath, promoting a meditative state and fostering a deeper connection to the present moment.
Teachings inspired by the ancient yogic texts and the core principles of yoga are gently introduced at the beginning or integrated as thematic cues throughout the practice, providing students with insights that they can carry beyond the mat.

This is always a beautifully restorative practice and a superb way to start the day. It refreshes not only the body through the physical yoga practice but also clears the mind and centres the soul.  Sam is a very talented, caring and intuitive yoga teacher and cannot be recommended highly enough.

Relaxation Hour  Sound Meditation - Sun 5pm Monthly 

Emma Lilley

As soon as you walk into one of Sam’s classes, you feel a warm welcome, and like your in a relaxing and safe space. Sam’s classes are beautifully put together, and she sets a focus or a narrative for them, that somehow always seems to chime and support you with whatever is going on in life. The classes are invigorating for the body and nourishing for the soul. I go to her Saturday flow classes, and the whole weekend is a million times better after a class. She’s also managed to build a beautiful community of yogis around the classes. I couldn’t recommend Sam’s classes enough. Thanks Sam ❤️
