Kind words

  • “Being in your presence was such a gift. I was destined to cross paths with you two gorgeous souls, as well as the other women on the retreat. I learnt something about myself from everyone there. The sunshine, the luminous light and the 'heart chakra green' flora fed me as much as the incredible food, inspiring conversations and introspective sessions. Emily - I felt like I was being taught / taken care of by a version of myself which is all I could have asked for as I began my personal journey back to yoga. Sophie - your intuition mirrored a part of mine which gave me joy and confidence. And your tarot reading spoke to my soul. “

  • “There is alchemy at play when these two work together and it’s a rare and precious magic; ask anyone who has done a retreat with Emily and Sophie… just don’t tell everyone when you have though ;)”

  • “I absolutely loved the gradual build up of yoga, starting gently and building up and becoming more intense. I adored Sophie’s classes, her questions. Coaching was all the medicine I needed.”

    ~ A N O U S K A ~

  • "It's funny, I think I came away with rest and re-set on my mind but actually what I needed was an open community, space to connect to what is actually happening in my life and permission to be allowed to give time to that. Each yoga practice and coaching session opened up more to me and I've come away feeling like something in me has started to unlock and release. I feel more clarity and more grounded - I didn't think I realised how much I was tucking away which needed to be addressed. A huge thank you"
