Sarah Church

I give Relaxation & Meditation sessions at Yoga at The Oaks, Normandy, Guildford - In-person and Online. I offer small friendly groups in my beautiful barn-like studio in a rural setting - where you can release tension, calm your mind, centre your energy and refresh your spirit. I also teach Qi Gong (Chi Kung) which is a gentle practice of simple flowing movements with attention to posture, energy flow and breath. It's a kind of movement meditation for well-being on all levels. I teach Yoga classes with lots of personal attention. My style is thoughtful and reflective yet friendly and interactive, I teach Hatha yoga which is chiefly Scaravelli -inspired, focussing on gravity, the breath and the spine. Learn how to work closely and respectfully with your body to bring health, balance, peace and awareness.

Yoga at The Oaks is a place to come that offers the opportunity to become quiet and still. To be with yourself in a gentle, attentive way. To rest and nourish yourself. We often use the peaceful garden in good weather, to connect with nature.

I am also trained in Aromatherapy, Reflexology, Holistic, Therapeutic and Swedish Massage, Anatomy and Physiology, Reiki, Colour Healing, Indian Head Massage and Shiatsu/ Acupressure Massage - and although I no longer offer these as treatments, I draw from my background and experience in the natural therapies in my teaching sessions of Yoga, Relaxation & Meditation and Qi Gong.
