Radiance & Renewal

COMING SOON!

Step into the radiance of summer with this eight-week yoga & mindfulness journey. Move in harmony with the season, embrace balance, and nurture your inner light through breath, movement, and reflection. Let’s flourish together—on and off the mat. 🌿✨

“Like the sun, let yourself rise, shine, and unfold into your fullest self.”

Move. Reflect. Flourish

As the sun reaches its peak and nature flourishes, this eight-week journey invites you to embrace your own expansion, strength, and renewal. Through yoga, breathwork, and mindfulness, you’ll cultivate balance, resilience, and joy, all while moving in harmony with the season’s rhythms.

Each week offers a unique theme, blending movement, reflection, and deep connection to your inner wisdom. Whether you’re seeking invigoration, restoration, or a sense of spaciousness, this programme is designed to support you in your own unfolding.

Come as you are, and step into the warmth of summer—for yourself, your practice, and your growth.

Our themes each week

Week 1 – Rooted Growth

Like the trees standing tall in summer’s warmth, we begin by rooting deep into strength and stability. Through grounding movement and breath, we embrace the foundation beneath us—allowing presence to bloom.

Week 2 – Flourishing

Growth is all around us—wild, abundant, and untamed. This week, we step into flourishing, exploring movement that mirrors nature’s unfolding. What are you ready to nourish and bring into full bloom?

Week 3 – Sun’s Embrace

The summer solstice marks the peak of light, a time of radiance and momentum. Through invigorating breathwork and movement, we harness inner fire, embracing the power of intention and transformation.

Week 4 – Water’s Cooling Flow

With heat comes the need for balance. Like the gentle rivers winding through summer’s warmth, we explore fluidity and surrender, finding ease in cooling breath and replenishing movement.

Week 5 – Wild Heart & Joy

This week is a celebration—a reminder that life is meant to be lived with playfulness and wonder. Through heart-opening movement and gratitude, we welcome joy into every breath, step, and stretch.

Week 6 – Sun & Shadow

Every bright day holds its contrasts—the dance of light and dark. As we explore balance, we acknowledge both strength and stillness, leaning into the wisdom of contrast and embracing every part of ourselves.

Week 7 – Spaciousness & Freedom

Summer invites us to expand, to move freely, to breathe deeply. Through open postures and meditative reflection, we welcome the vastness of the season and the boundless space within.

Week 8 – Harvest & Reflection

Now, we gather. As the season shifts, we take time to reap and reflect, carrying forward the gifts of this journey. With restorative movement and deep gratitude, we close this chapter, ready for whatever comes next.

E
A unique opportunity to pause, reflect and bring healing to your inner and outer worlds
E

‘Yoga gives us peace and clarity in order to see the beauty and wonder that is all around us’

Louise Neicho

Having spent the first 20 years of my professional life working in and with Nature I feel a deep connection to the natural world that has promoted numerous benefits in my life. Combining this with a love and appreciation of yoga and mindfulness that spans over two decades has enabled me to share practices that help us connect more deeply with Nature and ourselves. I have completed over 1000hrs of yoga and mindfulness teacher training and in 2023 I received a distinction for my master’s degree in Mindfulness where my thesis focused on the wellbeing benefits of connecting with Nature. I can honestly say that yoga and Nature has saved my life on more than one occasion, and I don’t think I would be the person I am today if it wasn’t for my practice. To bring all of this together is simply a dream come true and I hope you will join me and our like-minded community soon.

Words from my clients

“Louise has a very unique approach to teaching yoga, drawing learning from nature, neuroscience and nourishing spiritual teachings! I love the variety in her programmes, which combine mindfulness practices, movement and postures, readings and poetry, with wisdom and warmth. I am learning so much about how the mind, body and spirit can work together to cultivate compassion, strength and resilience for ourselves and those around us. I always feel calm and uplifted after a class. Informative, insightful and inspiring - thank you Lou!”

‘A unique approach to yoga’
by Liz Hobman

"Louise’s classes are a life-line! I find myself being able to calm my anxiety, find a new purpose and most importantly accept where we are as a country and continue my daily life. Louise is a very warm, nurturing and knowledgeable teacher. She also integrates elements of mindfulness through various readings, poetry and insights to deepen the practice and allow deep rest to take place. I always feel lifted, yet grounded after each of Louise’s yoga sessions."

‘Classes are a life-line’
by Cathy Washbrooke

"I started as a complete beginner and was worried I would not be able to follow the moves, but Louise is so kind and caring, plus really knows her stuff so is able to give very clear, supportive guidance. There is never any pressure as Louise always offers alternatives. With care and kindness she has encouraged me to really develop my practice. I always feel really energised after a session with Louise but I am also starting to notice a higher level of peace and tranquility in my day to day life. I feel strong and calm at the same time!"

‘Louise is so kind and caring’
by Emma Scinaldi

“Lou's passion for yoga is infectious and her knowledge is incredibly vast. I have been doing yoga for a long time but I am always amazed at the fact that I am still learning something new with Louise’s very detailed explanations. The classes have helped me staying in the moment and achieving calmness within”

‘Louise’s passion for yoga is infectious’
by Sonia Battaini

"Louise's classes are always insightful, interesting and varied as she brings her knowledge and ongoing training and research into each one, combining useful 'off-the-mat' mindfulness tips with yoga poses appropriate to the unique theme for the week as well as catering for individual requirements where needed. They are packed with lots of good advice for day-to-day living as well as for practice on the yoga mat. Now that everything is online and recorded there is the added benefit of being able to participate in Louise's classes wherever you are in the world and the enormous library of recorded classes is a treasure trove of resource"

‘Insightful, interesting, varied’
by Sarah Hall

“Lou's classes have been a real anchor for me amongst all the uncertainty of the past year. I do like being able to log on to the website and do the recorded classes at any time. The classes cover a specific topic each term, and I’ve found that having a subject to focus on really enhances my yoga practice, off the mat as well as on it! Lou brings some wonderful insights into each class and you can tell she really teaches from the heart.”

‘Louise teaches from the heart’

Your Questions Answered

How is this different to other yoga classes?
This course is designed to take you gently and slowly into the deeper layers of the mind, each week building on your understanding of yoga and the tools and techniques that you can use on and off your mat. The difference to regular yoga classes is that we focus on one particular theme, as well as a physical focus in the body each week. You get to explore this theme for a whole week on and off the mat, building your awareness and focus.
Which class should I choose?

There are 3 different styles to choose from each week and how you choose will depend on whether you have practiced yoga before or not and what you would like to gain from your practice. If you are new to yoga or haven’t practiced in a while, I would suggest starting with the Gentle & Restorative and Yin Yoga. If you are familiar with vinyasas then you’ll love the Flow & Reflect classes on Monday and Saturday mornings and if you’re looking for more stillness, deep physical stretches and meditation techniques then Yin Yoga will be for you.

What do I need to begin?

You will need a yoga mat and comfortable clothing that you can easily move around in, PJ’s work well for this! For some of the classes you will need some props, but household pillows, cushions and blankets work well in place of traditional yoga props. I will let you know at the beginning of class what you need.

How does the membership work?

As a member you are welcome to come to any of the classes on the timetable where we will explore these concepts and themes. All classes are recorded and uploaded to the Exclusive Members Area within 24 hours of taking place so if you miss your favourite class you can catch up at a time suit you. PLUS if you go on holiday, you can still access the live classes or recordings from anywhere in the world (as long as you have internet of course!)

How does the one-off course work?

If you decide to invest in the one-off course instead of the membership, then you will have access to all in-person or live online class for the duration of the course (i.e. 8 weeks). You will also have access to all recordings from the course which you can access forever.
