    Whole experience was very relaxing, went to the session in Oct 2024, would go again. Yoga is quite straight forward to follow, there was definitely a mix of levels in the class but Lydia was very accommodating to all levels. As for some untrained, you might be a tad out of breath. I liked the pen and paper exercise in the middle, sort of a mini break in between. The sound bath with Phoebe was quite an experience, having never done one before, my mind floated to random places. Make sure you do dress warm after the yoga as you will be lying down for awhile, but they make sure you have time to do that. Friendly and inviting atmosphere.

    If you're looking for a new monthly self care treat in a beautiful setting with passionate & creative practitioners, then don't skip this.  Lydia's yoga flow is easy to follow (I am new to yoga and was able to keep up) and helps the stress of the day melt away. The journaling prompts are thought provoking and there is a new theme each month. Phoebe's sound bath at the end ties it all together with a 40-50min journey you have to experience to understand. I honestly felt like I was levitating at one point.  Can't wait for the next one!
