Yoga Social Suffolk

I started Yoga Social Suffolk in Sept 2018. It very quickly became a thriving social space where like minded people met, moved, cried and laughed. Friends become family and a little tribe was formed. 6 months later, the bottom fell out of my world when I was diagnosed with ovarian cancer, aged only 40. Fast forward 2 years, 3 major ops, a misdiagnosis, 9 chemos, 3 high dose chemos, a stem cell transplant and month on life support, im back, and IM ALIVE, WALKING AND YOGA-ING!

2 years ago `I wrote this, and it all still applies to my ethos, I just didn’t know what was round the corner…Something got me ready for the greatest battle of my life…That was to stop and bend before i broke…

Sept 2018

Yoga has changed my life. I was a busy busy busy mum. Despite the motto on our kitchen wall commanding "DO LESS BETTER", we never did!

Fast forward 3 years: a life changing move from Hackney to Suffolk,  a massive renovation of a farm house, juggling my work as an interior designer and University lecturer at Chelsea College of Arts, being a mum, madly exercising and generally busying myself from the endless chatter inside my brain to DO SOMETHING, I struggled with life. 

So after much soul searching and diagnoses, I found myself desperate to take control of ME...

And then YOGA CAME, Meditation came, and I felt me at last. Change happened and I can literally say that over the past 2 years, Joy has come into my life through Yoga.  

So, being a newby to Suffolk, and feeling low as the seasons changed and the nights draw in, I thought "why not create something that brings people together?". 

Yoga social comes from a thought that we can give ourselves  and our families the gift of yoga but also to get together, make friends, chat, laugh,  cry and not take ourselves too seriously!

I would love you to join me!
