Bookings from March
From April, I’ll be taking on some new placements working with housing, care and community settings to deliver group wellbeing sessions, usually for older adults and later-life communities.
My work supports people navigating later life, health changes and transitions in home and community. Sessions combine movement, breath, relaxation and music to support physical comfort, emotional wellbeing and connection, and are designed to be inclusive, accessible and appropriate for mixed-ability groups, including care homes, extra care housing, retirement living and local community settings.
Sessions are adaptable to different spaces and group sizes, and I bring appropriate equipment when needed.
Half-day and full-day visits
I usually work on a half-day basis, allowing time for two sessions within a visit. Where helpful, I’m also available on a full-day basis for organisations that would like a broader programme of sessions or support.
What a half-day visit might include
Mindful movement and guided relaxation
An inclusive session of chair-based and/or mat-based yoga, breathing and guided relaxation (osteoporosis-aware), focused on posture, mobility and nervous system regulation.
Up to one hour.
After a short break (usually 30–45 minutes)
Calm singing and reminiscence session
A relaxed music wellbeing session using live voice with light amplification and tasteful backing tracks. Drawing on jazz, folk and soul repertoire, participants are welcome to listen or to sing along if they wish, with the emphasis on connection, reminiscence and emotional renewal.
Up to one hour.
Some organisations prefer to use the remaining time for a further movement or relaxation session, or for one-to-one transition support.
Full-day visits
A full-day visit can combine group wellbeing delivery with more integrated support across the day.
Alongside additional yoga, relaxation or wellbeing sessions, a full-day can include time for one-to-one or small-group transition support, reflective conversations, or engagement work with residents or participants. Where helpful, anonymised learning from delivery and conversations can be fed back to inform future activity, wellbeing planning or service development.
This approach works particularly well where organisations want delivery and learning to sit alongside one another, supporting both immediate wellbeing and longer-term insight into residents’ or communities’ needs.
Location and availability
I’m based in the Kingston and Elmbridge area on the London / Surrey border.
I have availability for pilot visits in March across housing, care and community settings, with more regular availability from early April onwards, following completion of my Yoga4Health training blocks.
If you’d like to explore whether this could be suitable for your residents, participants or community, please get in touch for a chat or to arrange an initial visit.
