ROOT TO RISE ( Half-Day Yoga + Pilates Retreat ) w/ Anemone + Fran

Anemone holds space for a practice that invites presence from the very first breath. It is intuitive and grounded, with a quiet strength that moves through the body in soft waves. Her classes are an exploration: a tuning-in, a conversation between movement and stillness, between the physical and the unseen. The practice becomes a way to recognise and honour the whole self ( body, mind and soul ) meeting what arises with openness and curiosity. Rooted in Vinyasa, Hatha and Awakening Yoga, Anemone’s teaching is a fluid integration of structure and freedom. With a professional background as a family doctor, she brings a deep understanding of the body’s anatomy and a profound respect for the uniqueness of each individual. Her classes are designed to meet you as you are, honouring the differences in every body and inviting a practice that supports long-term well-being rather than uniformity. Anemone sees movement, and especially yoga, as a form of medicine: a holistic way of healing that reaches beyond the physical into emotional, mental and spiritual realms. She believes in the power of yoga to reconnect us with our inner landscape and to support a life lived with awareness, compassion and clarity. Her approach is shaped by a range of influences, woven together through her own experience and continued inquiry. She honours all the teachers and practices that have helped her remember the power of slowing down, listening in, and moving with intention and emotion. For her, yoga is a way to live more fully, more freely, and more in tune with ourselves.
