Event Details:

You’re invited to join a deeply restorative two-night women’s yoga retreat in the breathtaking sanctuary of Gradbach – a hidden gem nestled in the heart of nature.

Set on the banks of the River Dane, in a peaceful Staffordshire hamlet, this beautifully restored former silk and flax mill is steeped in history, surrounded by 16 acres of wild, unspoilt land and embraced by some of the most stunning scenery the Peak District has to offer.

This is your invitation to pause, breathe and come home to yourself.

Imagine, slow spacious mornings…
 Gentle Yoga that awakens your body beautifully
 Meditation, Breathwork and Ancient Healing Practices 
 Body movement exploration to open you up to your Joy and freedom

Practice indoors filled with light, or outside under open skies.
Wander through nature. Sit by the river. Rest deeply.

Everything is designed to help you slow down, soften and reconnect – with nature and with yourself.

A space to go deeper: –

This retreat is more than just yoga.

Here, you are invited to gently peel back the layers…
To soften the body…
To quiet the mind….
To hear yourself again.

Deep Nourishment: –

Everything here is designed to support you on every level:

  • Delicious, home cooked vegetarian meals and delicious desserts
  • Teas, Coffee, herbal teas (this retreat is alcohol-free)
  • No cooking, no washing up just receive and enjoy

Held by Nature: –

The river, the trees, the open skies.

All working quietly to ground you, steady you and remind you of your own natural rhythm.
You’ll have time to walk, to sit to journal or to simply be…
And to let nature do what it does best: bring you back into balance.

"Having not done any yoga for a considerable time, I was delighted to feel great afterwards . "
Firstly thank you so much for the wonderful retreat! it was perfect for me. I felt at home straightaway The surroundings are tranquil and being in nature is such a de-stressor. Having not done any yoga for a considerable time, I was delighted to feel great afterwards . You are always very intuitive and read our group of fabulous women so well. The meditations and workshops helped me stop and reflect as well Some emotions surfaced that caught me by surprise and I have been exploring these since.

Emma Shipstone – Nottinghamshire – Essence™ Coaching
"I have been lucky to attend a number of Kim’s workshops and retreats"
“As a coach, her ability to help you clear the fog and find your own way is phenomenal and her calm, relaxed nature is a great reassurance. I have been lucky to attend a number of Kim’s workshops and retreats, both in the UK and abroad. They are so well organised and cater for everyone’s needs and abilities. In summary, Kim is an amazingly balanced person, with an abundance of love and kindness”

""Kim's online Tuesday Evening Yoga Classes, are beyond measure in the nourishment, comfort, inspiration, encouragement, support, and love for al"
"Kim's online Tuesday Evening Yoga Classes, are beyond measure in the nourishment, comfort, inspiration, encouragement, support, and love for all and from all, that make-up such a valued Class. I love how each Class is so very different, and how one can learn so much from both the movements and the wisdom imparted by Kim. I really value how there is always a set theme for each individual Class, and I really like how Kim takes us through each Season. A Nature's Almanac, as it were, where the Yoga itself takes it to a whole new level. It all seems to make a lot of sense, as we collectively go through each Year, and I love how much one can call on each Class, long after the hour has happened. So it stays with you and becomes an intrinsic part of how each day then continues to unfold, for all, and how one can take oneself through each day. Thank you so much Kim, ten-fold."
Ria C – West Bridgford – Yoga Classes
"I feel totally relaxed and ‘centred’ "

"I’m extremely grateful for Kim’s work"
“After 18 months of working with Kim, sometimes twice a week, sometimes once a month; I had rebuilt my life into a position where I was so strong both physically and mentally, that I moved to Australia on my own and started my own business there. I now own, run and manage my own gym, showing other people their real potential, living the best version of themselves. I’m extremely grateful for Kim’s work and I wouldn’t have the life I have today without her”
