30th November 2019 - A Festive Yoga Workshop
This is a very short extract from the amazing Yoga workshop we hosted on Saturday 30th November. After a wonderful Yoga asana practice we were able to relax in Savasana and listen to Emily play. It was simply sublime. The 2 hours passed so quickly we didn't want it to end. Emily will be back with us again in 2020, look out for the dates and ensure you book early to enjoy this wonderful treat. |

Barre classes at Havering College, Ardleigh Green. Tuesday 7pm and Saturday 11am
Stretching the hamstrings! Use a chair at home! Lift out of your supporting hip and keep the knees slightly soft. Face leg hold for 5 breaths, side stretch hold for 5 breaths. My hamstrings have always been tight but yoga and barre have definitely helped me stretch out and build strength! Contact to book your first Barre class. |

Teaching Yoga and Pilates at various venues in Havering means I need a car to transport equipment and get to and from classes. Personally, driving is not my favorite thing, it is a necessity I find stressful and frustrating. There seems to be more and more cars and endless road works! However, I made the decision a few months ago to get a new car for the business and bought a Kia Soul (I think it's quite fitting!) Although driving is my nemesis, I can now turn a nemesis into a positive by using the car to spread the word and benefits from Yoga and Pilates. If you see me driving past, give me a wave and a smile. I hope you like it. Pauline

Thank you Jane for your video testimonial. "I’ve had amazing year with Wendy can’t thank you ladies enough." Jane Murnane |

Thank you Wendy for the most amazing birthday cake. This beautiful, Yoga themed cake has the most detailed and exquisite Lotus Flower.
The Meaning of the Lotus Flower:
Throughout time the lotus flower has been a powerful spiritual symbol. A lotus has its roots in mud, at the bottom of streams and ponds. But it grows to become the most beautiful flower despite its origins. It symbolises how we too can overcome all obstacles on our journey and flourish. It also represents growth and spiritual development.
Wendy has been learning Yoga and Pilates with me for just over a year now, starting in May 2017 and coming on my first every Yoga and Pilates retreat in Poros Greece.
I have been helping Wendy launch her business CakesbyWendy@thecherryontop. If you live local to Hornchurch and would like to order a celebration cake or delicious cake for any occasion, you can contact Wendy on 07999443996 or, if you are on facebook here is a link to her page: Cakes by Wendy
