“Are you feeling stressed out? I hear you!
My personal experience of Perimenopause began in 2020, and at the time I had very limited understanding of what was going on and why, it was a tough time. Over the preceding years I have been on quite the journey, which has led me to creating Menopause Yoga + classes, informed by the lessons and knowledge I have gained on my personal journey, but also by hearing, reading and sharing the stories of others. Midlife is a wonderful opportunity for transformation and I aim in my classes to create the space. time and movement that is needed to allow this journey to unfold in a way that lets my students feel safe, head and heard.
In my classes I get to share my passion and huge knowledge of perimenopause/menopause, in order to support women through this transition, we also have a book club and I love the discussions that come from this each week.
I use my work as a yoga teacher to provide rest and relief, not just physical but also emotional. I have created a community where women can share safely and access the support they need. I also bring in my work as an aromatherapist to my sessions, supporting my students using the wonderful world of essential oils too. ”

“I’ve been having a tough couple of years (I think so many of us have!) and Heather’s class is one of the best things I do for myself. I really appreciate the fun, warm and most of all, non-judgmental atmosphere she creates in her classes. I can be hard of myself at times and don’t really enjoy exercise that much but with the flow and the affirmations, I always leave feeling better, mentally and physically than when I arrived. Thanks so much.””
