Testimonials
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!

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 open up somehow and have fun too, amongst like-minded people of differing abilities. And I only know this because I’ve been there time and time again…and every time I go I learn something new: about my body, my life, or my soul. Maybe you’re already an experienced yogi, so you can revel in Brigitte… Read more

I have been on the most incredible journey with Brigitte and have been honoured to learn from her and with her. She teaches from her heart and her reality, this has inspired me to make my own journey into teaching knowing, from her example, that I can be a real person and a yoga teacher. 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 to go on. From beginners to advanced students, everyone will get something from the experience, and I would highly recommend it to all. Read more

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 teachings, I actually feel different about myself and the world around me. I hope in the future many more people will get to experience and appreciate the gift of yoga practice with this special lady. Read more

I have been practicing yoga with Brigitte for a number of years and have also been lucky enough to join her on several retreats. Brigitte is an inspiring and knowledgeable teacher, her enthusiasm is contagious. She is one of those charismatic people who have the rare quality of creating an atmosphere of self belief and trust. I began practicing yoga following a devastating period in my life when I lost someone very dear to me. In addition to this I work with children who have experienced extreme loss and trauma. The work can leave me feeling sad and empty at times. On my journey to experience and learn yoga I had a desire to build physical strength and flexibility. Whilst this began to take place, an extraordinary emotional strength and spiritual awareness also grew. I have found that Brigitte sprinkles a little bit of magic in her classes and on her retreats and if we are open to this we can sense this in our hearts and feel the warmth. I am left feeling energised and full of serenity… Read more

I started to practice yoga with Brigitte in 2008 and put simply, it has had a profoundly positive effect on my life to the extent that I am now a yoga teacher myself. If I am able to impart a tenth of the inspiration, hope and joy in my own students as she has in me, then I know that I’m on the right track. Read more

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 developments and changes in the world of yoga which she brings back to share with her classes. She also regularly runs retreats and workshops for teachers which I can highly recommend. Finally am now on a Yoga Teacher Training thanks to the inspiration I gained from Brigitte. I just wish she had starte… Read more
