Yin Yoga Workshops

Seasonal Yin Yoga

Slowing down with the rhythm of the seasons

A series of deeply nourishing yin yoga workshops inspired by the changing seasons and the wisdom of the Daoist Five Elements.

These small group gatherings offer space to slow down, soften, and reconnect supporting the body and nervous system through quiet, meditative practice.

Each workshop is shaped by the energy of the season, exploring the corresponding meridians, organs and elemental qualities through long-held yin postures, breath awareness, visualisations, stillness, and rest.

Classes may also include gentle acupressure, meditation, or simple seasonal reflection practices to support balance and grounding throughout the year.

Held by candlelight in a calm and nurturing space, these sessions are designed to invite a deeper exhale - offering time away from the pace and stimulation of everyday life.

You'll be fully supported with bolsters, blankets, blocks, and other props to allow the body to soften comfortably into each posture.

The practice is slow, spacious, and accessible to all levels, with an emphasis on listening inward rather than striving or achieving.

No previous experience is needed. You are welcome to come exactly as you are.

The Space

All workshops take place in my private studio near Birchington-on-Sea on the Kent coast.

The studio is intentionally small and quietly held, creating a calm and supportive environment for deeper rest and practice.

"Real rest feels like every cell is thanking you for taking care of you. It's calm, not full of checklists and chores. It's simple: not multitasking; not fixing broken things.

~ Jennifer Williamson

"We must always change, renew, rejuvenate ourselves, otherwise we harden."

~ Johann Wolfgang von Goethe

"If you get tired, learn to rest, not to quit."

~ Banksy

"It's precisely those who are busiest who most need to give themselves a break."

~ Pico Iyer

"Your commitment to your wellness is part of the revolution."

~ Danielle LaPorte

"I had such a wonderful yin yoga session with Katya, I always come away feeling renewed. Her knowledge and depth of experience makes every class a must if you want to heal on multiple levels through the art of her yoga practice."
