Barley is our 80s ray of Fame sunshine, she is a trained dancer but, she is a GREAT Yoga teacher!!!! This energetic soul will soothe you with her softness, inspire you with her strength and wrap you up in her incredibly beautiful energy, which once you are in, you can't leave. She teaches our traditional Hatha class on a Thursday at 6pm as well as covering other classes, she is a wealth of knowledge, ask her anything about Yoga, from philosophy to asana, she knows it all, a truly wondrous being, and we are very lucky to have her.

Sit with Berfu a while and you will easily warm to her, a natural teacher who believes that teaching yoga is about offering a safe space where you can check in to your body and check out of the daily grind, all in the serene and supportive place of the studio.

She is profoundly motivated by creating moments of clarity and connection for you to experience in your weekly class, and loves a ‘Flow’ practise where the breath follows the body.

For Berfu, Yoga is a therapy that is non negotiable in her life, and its that passion that we love her for.

Catch her Walking and Reading, and hanging out in Norwich coffee spots.

Her gentle spirit will have you relaxing into your practise as her Hatha classes will give you space from your life.

For Rachael the world stops when she practises and its that place she wants to take you to, so to-do lists fade away, your focus is purely on you, your breath and the present moment. Forever learning and trying to push those self imposed limits is her goal.

Find her in the Forest, the Mountains, or by the Sea.

Regina is our resident Yin teacher—and she’s incredible.
Her deep knowledge brings a magical quality to her classes, helping students truly experience and understand Yin. She guides you to explore the connection between body, breath, and stillness, encouraging mindfulness and self-awareness on the mat. Her classes are welcoming, non-competitive, and suitable for all ages, levels, and abilities.

A devoted dog lover, Regina lives in the countryside with her husband and pups. Recently relocated to Norfolk, she’s fallen in love with the area—and we’ve fallen in love with her. Lucky Norfolk
