Sallys gentle nature and mindful teaching style were absolutely perfect for me as I began to build strength after a long-term back injury that had left me very vulnerable. Her vast knowledge of the beautiful yoga tradition is evident from the get-go, and theres an authenticity to her teaching that is very hard to find in the area. As a plant-lover, the physical setting of Calm Heart Yoga is one of the most beautifully designed yoga spaces I have ever come across. Highly recommend!

Calm Heart Yoga is a beautiful sanctuary Sally has created such a cosy, special space where you simply don't want to leave! The Deep rest retreat was absolutely wonderful, such a nurturing experience. We enjoyed a cuppa and delicious healthy treats by the fire afterwards. Sally is an amazing teacher and a very kind soul

Sally created such a beautiful, nurturing and positive space for the mini retreat and helped us all individually according to our needs. There was no rushing and it was so lovely having tea and a fire to warm by first. Thanks Sally, your deep relax retreat was just what I needed to get through winter and I felt very spoiled.
