Leave the world for a while and step into Sanctuary...
Private One to Ones:
Exclusive. Immersive. Effective.
Interested in yoga for complete beginners, but nervous about joining a group class?
Perhaps you want to enrich your current yoga practice, learn useful tips, and have time to ask questions, or you’re a yoga teacher in need of a mentor.
Perhaps you struggle with chronic conditions such as M.E., arthritis, back pain, anxiety, or menopause.
Or maybe you’re just exhausted and in need of rest.
You give your all to others leaving nothing for yourself, malnourished of kindness and nurturing.
And it was never intended to be about weight loss.
Too often people take a group class without realising what they’re really doing is Pilates; an imitation of someone else.
Yoga is about you allowing time to notice who you are to yourself, who you are in your community. It’s a meticulous study of character development that happens to include physical movement and breathwork - movement to keep the body healthy and shed residual energy, breathwork to calm the nervous system, all to clear a path for the mind to become aware of our true selves. That is the practice, not the grandstanding.
Many of us try to reduce our internal awareness with external distractions. Sanctuary is a space where people sit beside themselves in honest conversation.
Slow down, love. This is a place where you set the pace.
Restorative Yoga at Sanctuary is an individualised treatment dedicated to your needs alone, not a group exercise.
Here, Nature enfolds you and your nervous system has time to calm.
In this safe space, your comfort is the priority – from the heated floor to the Shikibuton mattress, in tranquil silence or floating harmonies, from the gentle practice cocooned by soft blankets to the calming cup of herbal tisane afterwards enjoyed indoors or on the secluded bench outside.
You depart when you’re ready, not pushed out for the next class.
These treatments are about you – your restoration, your healing, your oasis.
“Nerine has been absolutely invaluable in my recovery from severe sciatica and chronic low back pain. Her sessions have helped me reconnect with my body in the most gentle and supportive way.
From the moment I joined her classes, I felt completely safe and seen. Her warmth, care, and deep understanding of the body and nervous system are incredibly grounding. She meets you exactly where you are, always encouraging patience, presence, and self-compassion.
Thanks to Nerine’s guidance, I’ve not only experienced real physical relief, but I’ve also gained strength, confidence, and a deep sense of inner calm. I leave every session feeling more balanced and hopeful.
If you’re looking for a teacher who truly cares and brings both heart and skill to her practice, I can’t recommend Nerine enough. She’s a gift on any healing journey.”
If you’d like to book a session or ask a question, please get in touch. I’d love to hear from you.
I have crafted a unique synthesis of Gentle Hatha, Restorative, and Therapeutic Yoga specialising in variations for curvy, ageing, and inflexible bodies at mid-life and beyond in Wetherby, Harrogate, and online.
