Sa’has’ta:
adj: With the hands – skilful and dexterous use of …”
Sahasta encompasses the principle aims of what I aim to offer both on the yoga mat, the pilates reformer and massage couch.
I provide Vinyasa Flow and Hatha Flow Yoga classes, private tuition, corporate yoga, Reformer classes, massage appointments or bespoke one to one yoga/reformer tuition with post class massage to truly maximise the benefits, all within the Bury St Edmunds area of Suffolk.
All require booking in advance, please contact me or text 07795 516065 for further details, or follow the book on line link above to directly reserve your space in any of my open classes.
Vinyasa Flow is a thorough and sometimes dynamic form of yoga where the main body of the class is principally about honing your awareness of the breath and the flow and the capacity to stay truly present. This slowly builds in intensity, focusing on strength and stabilisation, heating and mobilising the whole body to gain the maximum benefits from the second part of the class. Here, the focus shifts to deeper poses held for longer duration to increase flexibility, to release tension and is a great antidote to stress and anxiety.
Pilates Reformer is a highly effective form of functional movement exploration which is great for injury rehab or as a foundational movement modality for any sports and activities, gym based training and life itself! It is highly adaptable/scaleable making it more accessible than some mat based practices, and potentially, eventually more challenging too. It is also very complimentary to a yoga practice rather than the 2 being mutually exclusive.
Learn More…My integrative massage work is a method of manipulation of muscles and connective tissue through a variety of techniques (eg cross fibre deep friction massage), to assist with injury prevention and rehabilitation, increasing training volume, assisting with the correction of postural imbalances, stress relief, relaxation and enhancing general well being. My private practice is fully air conditioned for those sultry Summer days and warm and cosy for the more standard British weather conditions!

I am a hugely enthusiastic advocate of the benefits of yoga, pilates reformer and massage on all levels to everyone – hence why they are an integral part of my life.
For anyone who trains regularly and feels they have persistent injury problems or their training volume ceiling is closing down on them – yoga, reformer and/or massage may well be the solution for YOU.
Whatever your reason for interest – to improve flexibility, to strengthen, for injury rehabilitation, to boost your training volume, to prevent injury, for stress management, coping with difficult circumstances or a challenging life transition, for general well being or for any spiritual or holistic motivation, you will get something extremely positive from regular yoga practice and/or thorough massage work.
Plus, it’s worth adding that it’s a great way to feel balanced – stronger and yet more spacious, energised yet more calm and centred…and get a great night’s sleep too!
