My Roots.
My Soul led business is based on:
Body awareness. My body knows the way. It tells me what is nourishing and what isn’t.
Nature connection. Nature heals and is our medicine.
Creativity. Creativity is one of our innate needs as a human.
Community. Support and human to human connection is vital for wellbeing and growth. It takes a village…!
Expect to see all of these threaded through the classes and experiences I offer.
Love & Light Yoga with Natalie was born in 2012 when I qualified as a Yoga teacher. I first started my practice at the age of 17 and was amazed at the transformations I saw happening to my body, mind and outlook on life.
I knew I had to share this wonderful practice with others so I committed myself to a 3 year course and here I am, still teaching today.
I have witnessed countless life changes over the years for the people who have regularly come along to my classes. One of the things I love about Yoga is that it works in a gentle, subtle way - weaving wellness and awareness through all areas of life, encouraging change for the better, that often goes unnoticed. Then you suddenly look back to where you were and see just how far you have moved towards living the life you once only dreamed of.
A friendly, Earth loving Mother, Wife and Yogini who offers from the heart.…
I have taught in a variety of venues across the Staffordshire Moorlands, including health spas, hotels, gyms, schools, wellbeing clinics, at festivals, woodland wellbeing retreats and for mental health charities. I am also the sole Yoga teacher for The Tawny Hotel in Consall, Staffordshire and Scaldersitch Farm - a boutique camping venue in the Peak District National Park, where I offer private, bespoke Yoga classes for their guests.
I have two beautiful sons who have inspired me to deepen my practice by qualifying in Pregnancy, Postnatal and Children’s Yoga, and Baby Massage. Getting to share the journey into Motherhood and provide support to women and children in my local community is extremely special and important to me. Through my offerings I hope to empower people and provide them with tools to find their own place of calm.
If I’m not on my mat or with my family, you will find me in the garden or walking in the countryside with my dogs. I love being out in Nature and use the cycles, seasons, elements, Celtic Wheel of the Year and nature connection as my guides when offering a Yoga practice. My classes are deeply connected to Mother Earth and I love to weave in my knowledge of tree and animal spirit medicine and Ayurveda to add extra depth and encompass all of what I love!
