Asha guides her students with care, encouraging everyone to move mindfully, breathe deeply and practice intelligently.
She stepped onto a yoga mat in her mid-20s simply to add variety to her fitness routine. However, the practice quickly transformed into something much deeper.

Driven to share this transformation with others, Asha completed her foundational teacher training at Yogarise London, led by Erin Prichard. Forever a student at heart, she deeply values the wisdom of her mentors. To expand her offerings, she completed an additional 50 hours of advanced teacher training in Yin Yoga with Norman Blair.

Charlotte Dade
-
Charlotte is a yoga and pilates teacher who has been teaching since she first moved to London 10 years ago. Starting out in the classroom as a primary school teacher, she found herself in her first classes to help with back pain and improve her posture. Coming to the mat initially for physical reasons, she stayed for the space the practices created in her mind and body. With a keen interest in breathwork and somatic healing, she used her practice to help deal with stress and a busy mind. This is clear to see in Charlotte’s classes, which are infused with elements of meditation and pranayama, an invitation to explore the edges of your physical and mental limitations. With training in multiple styles of yoga, mat pilates, reformer, and reiki, you can expect a strong, dynamic flow interlaced with moments of calm and deep stretching, followed by deep relaxation in yoga Nidra or Savasana.

She believes movement is for everyone and that just a little a day can make a significant difference to mental and physical health.

Joni-Lulu Thomas
-
Joni-Lulu is a Yoga teacher who found her love for the practice while volunteering at Leela, a yoga studio in Lisbon, and trained at The Sacred Fig.
Originally, intending to simply stay active and not have to walk 35 minutes uphill in Santos to her gym (if you know, you know), her yoga practice turned into a journey of self-discovery.
Following the practice of her teachers, Nina Dirie and Tony Lupinacci, Joni found joy and stability in the Ghosh and Ashtanga practice.
Expect a class centred on focus, slowing down, and strength, alongside lots of smiles and encouragement!
Kate Wasserman
-
Kate’s classes are built around three things: breath, a strong core and moving with purpose. Every exercise has a reason, every cue is there to help you feel what is happening and the goal is always to move with intention - controlled, considered and connected.
Movement has always been part of her life - from riding horses as a child then teaching at a London stables, to running, triathlons and strength training alongside a career in retail and analytics. She fell in love with Reformer Pilates before having children, but it was postnatal recovery that showed her what it could really do.
She is a Level 3 Mat and Reformer Pilates instructor and group fitness trainer. Het classes are open to everyone, whether you’re new to the reformer or have been moving for years, whatever you’re coming back from or building towards.
Katherine Bristow
-
Katherine teaches with curiosity and an open mind. Exploring several modalities since her training, Katherine infuses these into her classes including Fascia Flossing, Myofascial Release and Katonah Yoga. For a dynamic practice you can expect fiery breath work and explorative sequences with space building strength while having some fun. As for yin, a seasonal matching to organ pairings infused with notes of guided breathwork and a sprinkling of Nidra in Savasana. Yoga is about setting yourself up to take a deeper breath - reorganising the body in a way that works for you, and putting yourself right back in the middle. Taking time to sit with yourself, and time to be in community.
A firm believer that props are your friends, and that joy and fun are always very welcome on the mat!

Livi offers a welcoming class of flowing movement, considered well-paced moments for release, and an emphasis on the mind-body connection.

Sadie Bevan
-
Sadie is a London based dancer and BASI Pilates teacher specialising in mat and reformer Pilates. She discovered Pilates through her dance training and, realising the great benefits it offers, made it an essential part of her cross-training. Sadie then went on to qualify as a Pilates teacher in 2023 to share the practice with others. Her classes blend Joseph Pilates’ original method with contemporary approaches, creating sessions that are both challenging and accessible. Grounded in mindfulness, Sadie weaves breathwork and meditative moments into her classes, offering a holistic approach to movement that encourages a strong sense of mind-body connection.
Sam Jonin
-
Sam is a yoga teacher whose practice is rooted in the Yogasana lineage and shaped by her training across Vinyasa, 4Beat/Rocket, Mandala and slower, more meditative flows. Accessibility sits at the heart of her teaching: she hands responsibility back to the practitioner, offering options throughout so you can take what you need and leave what you don't, meeting your body wherever it happens to be that day. Whether you fancy challenging yourself or would rather soften and slow down, there's room for both, and you're trusted to choose.
Expect a bit of everything woven through her classes, from flowing vinyasa to gentler, more restful practices, often threaded with a little yoga philosophy to give the movement somewhere to land. Sam works from the belief that people are far stronger than they tend to think, and her hope is that the time on the mat helps you reconnect with your body and mind in a way that carries into everyday life, so that whatever you bring into the room, you leave feeling better than when you arrived.
Sarah Jak
-
A blend of classical and contemporary, Sarah's classes are guided by the original 34 mat exercises developed by Joseph Pilates. Her instruction focuses on form and alignment, offering clients a supportive space to build strength, increase mobility, and improve posture.
Working in a fast-paced corporate environment, Sarah discovered Pilates, and it soon became a grounding and restorative part of her weekly routine. A growing curiosity led her to explore the method more deeply and to eventually qualify as an instructor.
With the view that movement should leave you feeling better than when you arrived, expect classes that instil mind-body connection and leave you with an overall sense of balance and wellbeing.
Sophie Teasdale
-
Integrating yoga, breathwork, somatics, and sound, Sophie Teasdale, founder of WellSATness - offers practices designed to support and regulate the nervous system.
Her trauma responsive and TCM-inspired (Traditional Chinese Medicine) approach is grounding, no matter what practice, dynamic yoga to slow flows, the attention is to create space for the mind & body to be in the now, releasing tension, stress & anxiety. Each practice is offered with intention and care, supporting the body’s natural capacity to shift between states of rest, regulation, and resilience.
Sophie's work is rooted in accessibility, emotional wellbeing, and community connection - creating space for individuals to explore nervous system health through evidence-informed, embodied practices.
Tim Mosley
-
Tim’s classes are less concerned with textbook alignment and classical yoga poses but focus on offering ways for people with differing physical needs to find their own interpretation of the practice.
Being visually impaired and blind in one eye, Tim doesn't see in 3D or have depth-perception (making balancing postures his nemesis!). As such, he designs classes with a real focus on being accessible to all - and is as likely to encourage falling out of poses as he is to holding them. He is interested solely in how a posture feels, rather than what it looks like.
Expect dynamic and fun flows that inspire a creative take on the practice, where you’ll be encouraged to adapt each and every pose to make it work for you.
Think ‘Moving + Breathing’ rather than a traditional yoga class.
