Testimonials

Brigitte’s classes are inspiring and profoundly moving, the perspective that she brings is one that always resonates on a deep level with me. The flowing commentary, instruction and spiritual reflections are simply beautiful. There is something hypnotic about her classes because the physical and mental focus are entwined to support each other. Brigitte has a soothing reassuring warmth in her voice conveying expression and real clarity, which gives me clarity over the minor tribulations in my every day life. I continually feel a freshness, depth and new energy to my own practice now, as what I have learned comes back to me in little realisations every now and again. Through Brigitte’s teachi… Read more

I stumbled across Brigitte’s yoga class about 9 years ago and accidentally embarked on an entirely wonderful and ongoing journey. I turned up to improve my fitness and flexibility; I got and keep getting so much more. Brigitte delivers a rare blend of in-depth knowledge body mechanics and spiritual integrity, delivered in a down-to-earth and warm way. Through Brigitte, I realised that the point of yoga is not to be able to tie yourself in knots but to learn how to navigate life in a healthy and happy way. The physical transformation is a welcome side effect compared to the real benefits of her teaching. On my mat, I learnt that how noisy my habitual thoughts are when meeting challenge.

I started yoga with Brigitte about 3 years ago and she has introduced me to a wealth of different yoga styles allowing me space to grow and develop in my practice. She is a very senior yoga teacher and is able to offer a very safe environment and ensures the classes are inclusive for all levels adapting her class and styles to the audience. Brigitte works with very creative sequencing to always bring something new to class. She offers yoga beyond the asana working very closely with the breath and incorporating meditation and pranayama into her classes allowing you to not just work our but also work in. Brigitte also regularly attends training’s to ensure she is up to date with the latest dev… Read more
I’m a bit of a yoga groupie when it comes to Brigitte’s yoga retreats, having been on my first in 2009 I’ve never missed a year since. First and foremost, it’s a holiday for me where I happen to do a lot of yoga and I love that Brigitte stresses that on day 1 allowing you the option to attend as few or as many of the sessions as you see fit. Generally, I go to all of them. The mornings are theme based creative vinyasa flows of about 2 hours duration and the evenings are shorter in duration and might include yin yoga, chanting, meditation, therapeutics or yoga Nidra. She has a broad spectrum of yoga tools” at her disposal so no retreat is like the next which makes them such a pleasure… Read more

If you’re wondering whether to try this or not, I’d say (unreservedly, and from personal experience). Oh my good gosh, you have to experience this at least once in your life. Whether you’re starting out on your yoga journey and you’re scared it’s too advanced; or whether you’ve never experienced yoga nidra and meditation, and you’re wondering whether it’s a bit flippin’ weird; or whether the thought of gongs and meditation is just one step too far…just trust: it’s amazing. This is Brigitte’s special magic, and to experience all this just once in a lifetime, all in one day, is a truly special thing. It all takes place in a safe, warm, and comfortable environment, where you just op… Read more

I have been on 3 retreats with Brigitte, and loved every moment of each one. The yoga is a combination of challenging, fun and deeply relaxing, and Brigitte as a teacher is warm, funny and extremely knowledgeable. On each retreat there was a fabulous group dynamic, and I put this down to Brigitte’s ability to foster a special ‘family’ feeling for the duration. I am already looking for the next one to book!

Brigitte is one of those unique teachers who is always growing herself through practise, training and experience and manages to synthesise these facets into understandable practises and philosophy for her students. She is an inspirational teacher and writer, helping me push my personal boundaries. She has also helped me rebuild post various injuries and surgeries over the last few years, yet manages to keep the experience fun and challenging, hence the reason I always come back. Her retreats are exceptional and the fact that she cares about you as a person too, shines through everything she does. I could not recommend Brigitte more highly. Read more
