Olive Branch Yoga

Ever heard the saying, 'The biggest energy dictates the room?' Heather's gentle, supportive nature does exactly that, it envelops everyone during the class leaving us all chilled.Her teaching style is collaborative, she guides and supports us to work with our bodies to enable us to achieve our best, all without judgement and pressure.I leave every session feeling positive, lighter in body and soul and with a feeling of warmth from the community she builds in her sessions.

Heather is a fantastic teacher. She is patient, kind and understanding of everyone's capabilities. I thoroughly enjoy her yoga class, which really sets me up for the day. I come away from her class feeling that my body and mind have had a good workout. I would highly recommend Heather's classes.

I joined yoga with Heather a year ago as a complete beginner. Heathers teaching style is gentle and encouraging, giving reasons each week of why certain moves are being introduced. Some more challenging than others!! Heather gives us constant reminders to 'listen to our bodies' when doing all moves and holds.I have never met such a caring person who genuinely gives so much to each class. Her preparation and explanation to each move helps each of us focus and enjoy each session.My movement and strength has improved noticeably and its so much easier to sit on the floor with my granddaughters. Such a bonus.If you have ever doubted that you wouldn't be any good or its not fast pace enough I would challenge you to join one of her classes. Its not for everyone....but I would be surprised if you're not smitten from the first session!!! Shelley

Heather's yoga classes are brilliant, relaxing, sometimes hard but always fun. She makes each class completely different. I always enjoy the class and the companionship.

Heather is a wonderful yoga teacher. I was a complete beginner many months ago and she made me feel completely at ease. Heather has a relaxed, but positive and encouraging style and I have learned a lot about mindful movement, as well as improving my physical fitness. I really look forward to my Monday morning classes. It's a great way to start the week!

I absolutely love Heather's sessions at olive branch yoga. She has been so welcoming, and supportive. Each session is different and is accomodating for different abilities. I enjoy it so much I try and get to as many sessions I can each week.

Completely new to Yoga a year ago, I joined Heather's class hoping to become a bit more flexible in my old age! I did, and gained so much more! I didn't think I would be interested in the meditative side, but it's lovely; calm and relaxing but also energising. Also, bonus, a wonderful bunch of new friends, all willing to put themselves into interesting positions. And Heather, always kind, reassuring, inspiring the classmates to be the best they can with humour and beautifully themed and crafted lessons. I hope I can carry this on for a lot more years. Looking forward to upping my weekly fix at Heather's new class on Thursday evenings.

Heather is a fantastic teacher and also a genuinely lovely person. She is very passionate about yoga and her classes are always interesting and engaging. She moves through different themes focussing on nature, spirituality and mental well-being. My flexibility, stamina and balance have greatly improved since I began attending just over a year ago. After a class I leave with a feeling of serenity knowing that I that I have really stretched my body both physically and mentally. Heather has also started to pilot yoga retreats, which is very exciting.

Heather has been an real inspiration , I hadn't tried yoga before and am so happy to have found this class. Really helped me not only physically but emotionally too. So great to learn how to relax , getting better every week.
