I have been teaching yoga for 10 years and have supported hundreds of practitioners in classes, retreats and trainings. I teach yoga to help people come back home to their bodies. My classes are a mix of everything I know to positively support the body, mind and spirit combined.

Specifically, I have trained in vinyasa, forest, hatha and yin yoga, body psychotherapy and even SUP yoga. Mostly I would suggest coming to a class to find out through feeling. What I am known for is my ability to hold space. This means to create something that is beyond and around the poses. 

I am a firm believer that to hold space effectively we must allow yoga (and life) to be paradoxical. My sequences are simple yet intelligent. My practice is as light as it will go deep. Both/and gives us room to be.

Hello I’m Rosie,

For adhoc updates on weekly classes and life as it unfolds sign up to my newsletter or follow me on Instagram. 

As well as a yoga teacher I am an anthropologist. My research is centred around cycles, psychology, and women’s health. In 2022 I qualified as a cycle coach. Living in alignment with my own inner cycle and seasons informs my life, work and how I run my business.

In 2025 I completed a practitioner training in transformational life coaching. To be honest, I am not entirely sure about the word transformational. At best I see transformation as something quiet and internal that happens gradually and then all of a sudden. My coaching practice reflects this alongside the multitudes of modalities and lived experience I have gathered over time.

Storytime

I began practicing yoga over 14 years ago whilst at university. I had been active and sporty my whole life, so didn't arrive to yoga with big expectations of it being a physical challenge. I just wanted to relax a bit and calm a 20 year old anxious mind. I underestimated yoga’s potential on both accounts. 

At the time I was studying psychology and I have always been interested in topics of living well and how we heal. In the beautiful way hindsight does, it makes sense that yoga is a path I may have stumbled across. However, often we don't see the corners until we are around them. Those first few yoga classes were one of those corners. 

Gradually my yoga practice became a part of my every day and my interest in health and wellbeing spurred on. I went to Bali to train as a yoga teacher, stayed to teach on a tiny island over there and ended up spending hours out on the water paddleboarding. I moved back to the UK having trained in both. 

Over the years that followed, pursuing work that felt authentic to me became a necessity. I built a thriving yoga career in London, founded a social enterprise come paddleboarding club, burnt out a little from all of that building. Let go of things and rebuilt things, decided to teach fewer classes and instead more retreats and trainings. I went back to university to get my masters, experienced heartbreak, found solace researching the cycles of women, moved to Portugal, trained to be a coach. I am still learning all the time. But I really believe in these practices; yoga, cyclical living, being outside often and finding work that you love, as tools to do just that.

I love swimming when it’s cold and cups of tea in bed first thing. I am a big sister, a daughter, a cousin, and a romancer of my best friends. Wanderlust is my most consistent vice. I have found homes and loves in many places. Currently I live in a small beach time just south of Lisbon.
