Movement.

Rest.

Hi, I’m Elise. I’m a yoga and movement teacher trained in Vinyasa, Hatha, Yin, Embodied Yin, Pregnancy Yoga, Embodied Flow and Somatics. I run retreats in the UK & Europe throughout the year and teach private, group and studio classes, as well as teaching for charities.

Experience both the joy of movement and the restorative benefits of rest and stillness. I’m a calm, creative and caring teacher who creates welcoming spaces for my students. Classes are also fun!

  • “I ADORE Elise's Shake the Dust classes - they completely change how I think, feel and act. Elise has the most wonderful energy, too - she's a real joy to be around.”

    - Sophie

  • “Thank you dear Elise for spearheading an excellent few days, rarely have I felt peace and contentment like it.”

    -Aly

  • “Beyond expectations! Mill space in Cabo de Gato Andalusia an oasis in this Spanish natural park area was a delight. Elise always approaches her classes with energy and a sense of fun while also being considerate of all levels of experience. Highly recommend Elise as a teacher and if you’re lucky enough to bag a retreat then you won’t be disappointed.”

  • “ Having recently returned from Elise’s retreat in Cabo de Gato, I feel energised and refreshed. Elise’s teaching is both nurturing and inspiring which, combined with her sense of fun, created a perfect balance in our daily yoga practice. It was a joy to spend time in beautiful surroundings with such a wonderful group of women and I enjoyed every minute of it. Thank you Elise!”

  • “Elise is such a joy to be around, it was super special to collaborate with her this summer, uniting artists and holistic practices. I really loved the energy she brought to the group, her encouragement and enthusiasm cast a positive glow on us all.”

    - Jen, Curator

  • “Huge thanks for the “yoga for sailors” session. I felt super comfortable in an environment that I thought I may not fit the mould for! Your chilled and positive energy has resonated throughout the crew since the session. I would definitely like to return soon. Namaste.”

    - James

  • “Elise’s dance classes are full of heart and joy and completely unique. Elise is such a skilful and talented teacher…beautiful music choices too. Thank you so much!.”

    - Zoe.

  • “I wanted to thank you for an absolutely perfect weekend. You cultivated such a warm, supportive and nurturing environment, and that doesn't come easy. You are both absolute shining stars and I feel so lucky to have been able to experience the very first of these. The bar is high, you may have ruined all other retreats for me!”
