What others say
Alice's yin classes are exactly what we need in the world today, where everything is fast and loud, everyone is constantly in a hurry and nothing is ever enough. I love coming to her classes - to slow down, to check in with my mind and with my body, to find where I hold the tension and to let it go. The way Alice leads the class and her soothing voice allows you to fully surrender into the poses and let them heal you from the inside out.

What does a session with Alice involve?
An hour of slow moving and soothing Yin Yoga to nourish and nurture our minds, bodies, and soul. During a Yin practise Alice seeks to take you on a journey inwards towards yourself. Learning to embody your experiences with the practise of Yin Yoga and Mindfulness, helping to nourish your nervous system, rejuvenate your cells and reconnect you with your centre.
During a Yin class with Alice we seek to create space in the body, releasing both physical, emotional and energetic tension within. Holding deep stretches for around 2-3 minutes; twisting, compressing, elongating and opening – the challenge of sitting in stillness is where we can deepen our self-awareness. How does the mind feel, what emotions arise? You will learn to hold a neutral space for yourself, not judging what comes up, but being a witness instead of attaching.
Yin teaches us acceptance of what is. Yin doesn’t force or cling. Yin shows us an ease, a peace, a journey down the route of least resistance. By starting to recognise your conditioned mind, and cultivating practises of mindfulness and meditation, you can begin your own healing journey and reclaim your confidence, power and strength to align your life in the way you desire.
The lessons we learn during a Yin class we can apply off the mat and into our daily lives which is why Alice also offers private 1-2-1 Yin sessions and mentoring. Start to build an even deeper awareness of yourself and Alice guides you through a unique Yin journey, with reading and external resources to support. Whether seeking to resolve a particular tension in life or not, you can learn to awaken to the simple pleasures of life all around, enhancing joy in your day to day experience.

• You are seeking a deeper connection to yourself
• You are struggling with something specific or nonspecific,
• You are struggling to let go
• You are searching for direction or a making a decision

A little bit about Alice:
Alice is a Yin Yoga teacher living in Valencia, Spain. She came to mindfulness 5 years ago when living in London feeling very stressed, anxious and overwhelmed within the city rat race, having lost the connection to herself and her deeper needs. When Alice completed her level 1 Yin Yoga Teacher Training, she did not realise the powerful transformation that was about to come. Soon after qualifying and feeling the deeply positive effects of a dedicated Yin Yoga practise, Alice started to change her life, realigning to her deepest needs desires. Yin Yoga gave her the space to decide how she wanted to be living.
Alice now teaches Yin Yoga in person, as well as hosting workshops and events in Valencia as well as in Ibiza. Alice’s experiences with anxiety, insomnia and living what felt like an empty life were hugely impacted by her training and studying of Yin Yoga, Chinese Medicine Theory and the Taoism philosophy that Yin stems from. Alice seeks to share what she has learned with others, so more can live in alignment, with ease and joy in our lives.
