"Words can’t quite express the feelings I have to sum up the Women’s Re-Wilding retreat with Christina. I don’t say this lightly or flippantly but for me the retreat was simply life changing. I have never been surrounded my such a wonderful group of supportive, kind, compassionate and loving women, meeting each other exactly where they are both emotionally, physically and energetically."
[Kate Redfern- Yorkshire, UK]
"A huge thank you to Christina for the most amazing weekend retreat. It was my first retreat and it was magical. I was feeling pretty disconnected with myself beforehand but she created such a safe space to share, to enjoy and to laugh.. it was only 2 days but it felt like I'd been on holiday for 2 weeks! I feel much calmer, more mindful and more confident.. more connected to myself and others. It worked wonders for me."
[Joanne Jones, Wales]
"Thank you Christina for such an incredible weekend - it was exactly what I needed to fully unwind, out in nature and away from the stresses of daily life. I really appreciated that it was so well organised, so we could just sit back and relax the entire time. I loved the yoga style that was gentle and intuitive and movement flows that I hadn't experieced before felt so good in my body. The yurts and food were beautiful too! I left feeling utterly relaxed and recharged.
[Claudia Sanderson, Northumberland, UK]
"The whole content & learning was really inspiring. I loved the yoga practices, and the food was amazing! It was a really calm environment to be in with no rigid timings which made the whole experience very relaxing and enjoyable."
[Rachael Adams - Nottingham, UK]
"I loved the yoga practice, the safe space that was created and the yummy food! It was a great weekend fileld with great yoga, food and laughs. Lovely to meet lots of new people and connect as women. My feminine energy feels like it's had a reboot! It brought me a sense of calmness and well being."
[Emma Whittles, E.Yorkshire]
"I have never been to a yoga retreat before but the whole experience was very positive. I felt very relaxed and everyone was so lovely, it was a very safe and welcoming space. I felt connected to the group by the end of the weekend and some of the discussions have left a long-lasting impression. Understanding about our moon cycle and the connection with our emotions was a real revelation! It was a celebration of femininity that I didn't know I needed!"
[Fiona Hardman, Hessle]
Born in the UK, with a heart hungry for travel & adventure, I quit my "corporate life" more than 10 years ago, at the age of 29 with nothing but a backpack and a whole lot of trust in the Universe! I have since called many places home (and still do! - Free Spirit by name, by nature :)
Yoga became an integral (& essential!) part of my life a decade ago, and it has indeed had, and continues to have a huge & positive impact on how I live, act & experience the world. I have been teaching Hatha Vinyasa Yoga for 8 years, and have studied and learned from numerous accredited teachers in Australia, Bali, India, the UK & Spain.
More recently I have been delving into Intuitive & Embodied Movement and through my passion for dance, have developed this into teaching in a more organic and fluid way that I feel is more natural for the female body.. because.. we have hips and they need to move! Last year I did a further course in Yoga Therapy & Women's Yoga and the Moon Cycles (internal and external!) and continue to weave this into my teachings - I am excited to combine all this to share with you!
