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

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 Brigittes ability to foster a special family feeling for the duration. I am already looking for the next one to book!

Brigitte’s Yoga Retreats can be summed up in one word ‘Bliss’. Everything is so well organised and there is a healthy mix of less experienced yogis, seasoned yogi’s and yoga teachers (there for their own holiday, not to teach). There is always just the right blend of yoga and recreation. I always return refreshed in both mind and body. That at least half of the yogis had been on Brigitte’s retreats many times previously says it all. Read more

Since practicing yoga with Brigitte I have learned to weave what I learn in classes into everyday life rather than just turning up on my mat once a week. Brigitte is inspirational and teaches from her heart, she uses real life experiences and opens her heart to all, I always feel empowered to try new things and enjoy the journey. I come out of classes feeling nurtured and relaxed. I feel blessed to have found such a wonderful and inspiring teacher. Read more

I first went on retreat with Brigitte after deciding I needed to get out of my comfort zone and face some fears. I had never been away on my own and never flown for more than 4 hours so after Brigitte was recommended to me I decided to jump in at the deep end and go to Goa with her. From the moment arriving at the airport Brigitte and her partner Brian were very welcoming and made me feel part of the group. I had the best time! My physical practice evolved, and my meditation practice too during the 10 days. I met some beautiful souls and have really lovely memories from the first retreat and my second which proved to be just as amazing!! Read more

Brigitte is an amazing teacher! Full of fun, experience and compassion. Her classes flow, they give me strength, confidence, they are fun although sometimes challenging, which always keeps me coming back. I’m so happy that I was introduced to yoga by Brigitte. I also attended a retreat that she organized in Italy and made some great new friends, we laughed so much and had a most inspiring yoga experience. I will definitely go on another retreat with Brigitte…. I Love Yoga! Thank you Brigitte. Read more

When I first went along to one of Brigitte’s classes I had absolutely no idea what I was letting myself in for. I was somewhat sceptical and not just a little apprehensive. However, Brigitte’s such a great tutor. She makes everything fall into place so effortlessly – helping even a real novice like me assume positions that I’d never ever dreamed of. At times I still can’t quite understand why I’d even want to. All I know is that, with Brigitte’s encouragement, I do (even if, I have to admit, its not always with the greatest of success). But it’s not the physical side of things that keeps me going back for more. Precisely what it is, I don’t yet really know. Maybe it’s to do with the feeling … Read more

Brigitte is not only a wonderful teacher, she is an incredibly warm person who makes her classes a real personal experience. Whether you’re bendy and flexible, or your body likes to hold on to tension, Brigitte always has a suggestion for alternatives which will maximise the benefits you gain from her class. Her passion for yoga shines through, and I always come out of her classes feeling amazing. Read more

Brigitte’s beautifully designed classes are a culmination of her years of experience and her innate ability to connect with her students. She manages to gently encourage her beginners, yet stretch her experienced yoginis; to be soulful, yet playful, all at the same time. Brigitte’s authenticity and wonderful philosophy make every session meaningful, and her teachings always inspire me to take something forward into my daily life. Whether it’s vinyasa, yin, meditation, or nidra, she brings her own unqiue magic every time, and her sessions and retreats always leave me feeling ‘smoothed out’ in both body and mind. Read more

Brigitte is not only a brilliant meditation and yoga teacher but an amazingly selfless and inspiring individual. She’s always learning more to pass on to her yogis. Whether at one of her yoga classes, meditation or the sublime restorative yoga, she takes great care of us all and you can’t fail to leave inspired and feeling a whole lot better than when you went in! Personally Brigitte has given me loads of free advice, particularly when I was seriously ill last year. Everyone should try her classes or retreats. You will wish you joined years ago! Read more
