What to Expect from a Class
With over two decades of experience in yoga and anatomy, Jacq brings a distinctive and personal approach to every class. Her sessions are grounded in curiosity and joy—an invitation to explore how your body moves and feels in each moment.
Expect a thoughtful mix of strength-building, core stability, mobility, and flexibility work. Traditional postures obviously show up, but often with a creative, and more functional twist—and you can count on a few surprises along the way to keep things fresh and engaging!
Breath is central throughout, helping to create a sense of flow, ease, and inner calm. The practice is designed to deepen your awareness of movement patterns, support more functional and mindful movement, and nurture a strong sense of well-being.
Each class winds down with a deeply restorative shavasana or a short, guided meditation, leaving you feeling grounded, spacious, and reconnected.
Retreats
STRENGTHEN THE BODY, FREE THE MIND, FEED THE SOUL
Retreats allow you the time to take a pause...
Treat yourself to a few days away in a beautiful place, nestled in nature and away from your everyday routine and busyness of life where it's often difficult to stop and evaluate what you're doing and where you're going. The escapes are in collaboration with friends who share the same values and are also passionate about sharing their time and skills in a whole variety of ways including:
Yoga, Alexander Technique, mindfulness, guided walking, outdoor swimming and creative arts.
​
A typical day will begin with an energising yoga practice, followed by a combination of some of the activities mentioned above. At the end of the day you'll be nourished with gentle flowing and restorative yoga with guided meditation or yoga nidra.
Of course, space will always be created for sharing, talking, music, laughter...or simply silence or rest if that's what you need.
A Yoga Sapien retreat allows you time to review what’s important and to make decisions about the things you'd like to start doing and the things you may need to stop doing.
​
A time to re-connect with yourself and nature, enjoy sumptuous and wholesome foods, make new friends, relax deeply and return home with fully charged batteries.
