Yoga Teacher
Pen first started teaching Hatha Yoga in 2006, after qualifying with the internationally renowned Sivananda Yoga Organisation. This was a deeply immersive experience, living a Yogic lifestyle in an ashram for a month and learning directly from the Swamis. This led to a further Intensive Sadhana course - two weeks of 3x daily yoga practices and fasting to cleanse the body and mind for deep spiritual connection. This gave amazing insights into the true power of Yoga. Pen then went on to live in India for a month where she trained to teach Ashtanga and Restorative Yoga. She also trained in Pregnancy Yoga to give mothers and their new borns a healthy starting point.
Massage Therapist
In 2012, Pen trained in traditional Thai Massage with the highly regarded therapist Kira Balaskas. Further training in Thai Pregnancy Massage and Thai footwork followed. Then Reiki training at the Orion Healing Retreat in Thailand and Shamanic Healing with Shaman Mike Meredith. The years of training, knowledge and experience have enabled Pen to evolve into a highly intuitive teacher and therapist, who seeks the highest good for those she works with.
Our beautiful studio is based in the village of Stow-cum-Quy, a short drive or bike ride out of Cambridge, via Newmarket Road. We have free parking on site. Our studio is light and airy and opens onto a delightful garden for outside use in when warm.
Our aim is to create a peaceful retreat, away from the stress of the modern world.
Yoga Client
Pen is quite simply the best yoga teacher I've ever had. She was my first yoga teacher when I was a non-yogi person. Since getting a taste of her yoga magic I've done loads of yoga, but never with a better yoga teacher. Don't think twice!
Massage Client
I highly recommend getting a Thai massage with Pen. I have had many Thai massages over the years, a lot of them in Thailand, and this is up there as one of the best.
Massage Client
The massage was excellent and provided great results. I was also given tips on diet, health and wellbeing, which have helped me focus and manage my diet much better. Thank you so much.
Yoga Client
Pen is an unusually intuitive teacher and healer, a person of rare presence and gifts. Practicing yoga under her knowledgeable guidance always feels like an adventure and a revelation about the ways of the body and mind. And working with her is always so much fun! I cannot recommend Pen more highly. She is extraordinary.
Corporate HR Client
Pen is the best yoga teacher we have ever had. She is fun to work with and is always full of good energy. Our employees love working with her, they feel at ease and always feel encouraged. They love the fact that she cares about them. Each session is truly catered to the individuals attending as she always talks to them before the session to find out what they want to get out of the time. Restorative sessions always go down well, especially in the new year. All of our employees also love the back massages that Pen delivers. The feedback is always good, and that is why we ask her to come back time and time again. Thank you Pen for being you.
