Sofia Panas brings years of experience guiding transformational retreats with a deep understanding of nervous system healing and somatic practices. Her approach honors both the therapeutic and spiritual dimensions of yoga.
Dheeya Rizmie carries the authentic wisdom of her South Asian heritage into her teaching, weaving traditional yogic philosophy with modern accessibility. Her understanding of the myths and stories behind the poses comes from a place of genuine cultural connection.
Together, they create a container that honors yoga's roots while making its transformative power accessible to all.

Build strength, flexibility and cultivate a steady mind with our vinyasa and mandala classes. Moving to the rhythm of our breath, these practices will leave you feeling energised, focused and connected to your body.
Our slow flow and yin practices are focused on down regulating the nervous system, creating a feeling of calm in the body and mind. We'll hold poses a little longer, creating a different kind of challenge, a big stretch and ultimately leaving you feeling very relaxed.
Yoga Nidra - A deeply powerful guided meditation practice. Also known as 'yogic sleep'. We'll work together to create your own intentions to use during the meditation.
Pranayama includes breath work or energy practices. We'll work with specific pranayama, controlling the breath to create altered energetic states.
Mythology Workshops - Dive deep into the ancient stories that live within the poses and within yourself, guided by teachers who understand both tradition and transformation.
