“Beautiful Elise always brings a very natural radiance and light-heartedness to class, whether she's hosting a week-long Spanish retreat or brightening a rainy Monday morning in Thanet. She teaches with care and consideration for all energy + experience levels, and her flows are playful, well-paced and set to her own excellent playlists. She leaves space to stretch, to work on strength, to balance, to dance and to let go. I've laughed a lot with her, and learned even more.” - Aly
“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!” - Liz

Highly recommend Elise as a teacher and if you’re lucky enough to bag a retreat then you won’t be disappointed” - Nicola
“Oh wow! Elise runs the best retreats I could have ever imagined. The perfect combo of nourishing, restful and playful. I knew they'd be good because her yoga classes are so calming and invigorating at the same time. There's lots of different styles incorporated and there's always adjustments and so I feel they would suit all kinds of people. I took my mum along and she had the best time. I really love that there's always something new I try at one of her classes. The food was incredible and I felt so cared for. Can't ask for anything more!!” - Phoebe

I've had the pleasure of attending both her group classes and retreats and can recommend her to anyone looking to improve their yoga practice, and perhaps recentre themselves and be more in touch with their own bodies. She's a total ray of sunshine and her energy is infectious - book in asap!” - Mollie
“Elise is a fantastic yoga teacher whom makes her classes and retreats suitable for everyone that attends. I am a quite new to yoga and was able to access all the sessions on her recent retreat in Spain whilst feeling confident that those whom had years of experience would also be stretched . The Retreat was really well organised by Elise with a lovely mixture of yoga classes and relaxation and opportunities for being creative having a massage or going for a walk . The dance class was great fun and everyone finished it with a smile. Elise introduced me to journaling which we did twice a day before our yoga sessions , a great opportunity to be reflective and grounded . Would I go again ….…..absolutely!” - Carol

“What an incredible few days away! Thank you to the magical Elise for planning the most perfect retreat full of joy, mad laughter and movement. In the most wonderful setting Ancient Convent. A break that I didn’t have any idea just how much I need! I’m hoping I now have a better toolkit to get me through the next few crazy months”. - Marie
“It wasn't just the yoga, peacefulness and the fabulous food that made our weekend stay so memorable. The location also played a big role in the success; such an idyllic part of England. It could not have been better. Thanks again, Elise and Linda, for the most wonderful weekend” -Carmel
“Scanning the reviews already left by people, there is really only to heartily concur with what you have already heard: that Elise has a wonderful presence, she has a generous and playful spirit and leads her classes with lightness, elegance and calm. (She does great cues!) I spent a wonderful week with 7 other women and Elise at Cabo del Gato in Spain. While I was some years older than most of the others, I felt very much included and had a great time. In all, I cannot imagine you would find a better yoga retreat than joining Elise and the good company that choose to join her!” - Donna
‘‘I just returned from my first yoga retreat hosted by the wonderful Elise in a beautiful old convent in the south of France. I met some incredible women and felt surrounded by inspiration, connection and deep joy. It helped me to connect back to myself and to nature and I can’t wait to integrate much of what I learned the last few days into my daily life. Thank you to the incredible Elise for sprinkling her magic onto us in France and for sharing her energy, compassion and enormous heart’’. - Aisling
