Class Styles
Mixing movement, meditation and breath-work, Yoga is an ancient Eastern practice and way of living. We blend these traditions with a contemporary understanding of movement and mindfulness to empower you on and off your mat. The class can be gentle or strong with options for all levels
Pilates developed his method in WW1 with other internees and injured soldiers. He used bed springs to help bedridden patients move and strengthen their bodies. For us, this is the heart of the Pilates method: working with your mind and body wherever that is, to improve how you move and feel in your every day life. Expect a whole body work out, all levels of experience welcome.
Explore the Primary series with Beth. With regular practice the familiarity of this set sequence facilitates the 'flow-state' - think of it as a moving-meditation. This is a strong + dynamic class, where everyone is welcome.
Work with us 1-2-1 on our state of the art Pilates Reformer to deepen your understanding of your body, how it moves and its connection with your mind and breath. Each session will be tailored to you and your goals, and how you're feeling on the day.

Meet our founder Vicky Dickson (she/her)
I teach Yoga, Pilates + Breathwork because I find Joy in movement and the opportunity to be creative in these practices. They help me feel strong and steady, and have taught me to listen to my body and rest when I need to. I've learned about breathing and how I can use it to energise when I'm tired or calm me when I'm stressed and anxious, and how meditation and mindfulness keep me balanced when things don’t go to plan (not just on my mat!). These things changed my life, and I share them because I hope they'll be useful for you too.
There's something magical about practising together in person and when I moved home to the Island I missed my neighbourhood studio, and its community. So I decided to open my own - with my toddler twins in tow! Running my own business and solo parenting won't always be easy but I'm passionate about equality in all its forms, and want to build a world where that exists for my children.
I come from a background in figure skating and dance and have taught Yoga and managed retreats in the UK, Bali, and Spain where I worked as the Camp Manager and Head of Yoga at one of the world's most celebrated Wellness retreats The Body Camp, Mallorca. I've been lucky enough to have completed over 600 hours of training across India, Indonesia and the UK and at the moment I'm studying for my Comprehensive Pilates Exam with Polestar Pilates in London and training in Advanced Breathwork with author of The Oxygen Advantage Patrick McKeown.

As someone who wasn't particularly active in her early years discovering Yoga as an adult allowed Beth to realise her own potential. "I've found grace, strength and confidence which has supported me in all areas of my life." Witnessing the transformational power of her own practice, she has dedicated her life to spreading the magic of Yoga.
