This moving, sensing body

I teach a quiet movement and awareness practice that helps you return to yourself. We explore slow, gentle postures and movements, and spacious rest. The focus is on presence, breath, and ease. This practice is informed by yoga, other somatic work, and the same principles that support my cranio-sacral sessions. It is suitable for anyone who wants a calm, steady space to soften and reconnect.

This is an inside-out approach. You’ll have lots of options in class, with supports such as chairs and blankets, and you’ll work at your own pace. The emphasis is on feeling and learning from your own direct experience.

What people say

  • Sensitive, gentle, inclusive


    The sessions were great! Sensitive, gentle, inclusive. I don’t usually tend to attend many yoga sessions when on retreat, but only missed one this time round as I really appreciated what she was offering.

  • More than the physical


    Thank you Raka, you always manage to bring in a spiritual aspect to any posture you do. I love that! Its definitely more than the physical.

  • Gentle yet seemed to have deep effects

    Loved it. Best movement work we have had. Raka seemed particularly to inhabit her body, more than some other teachers we have had. The practice felt closer to our mindfulness meditation practice. The movement was gentle yet seemed to have deep effects. Also loved the way she didn’t cram too much in, paid attention to all the participants and how they were doing, slowly built up each exercise. Hope she comes again.

  • A seamless continuation of the meditation sessions


    I looked forward to the mindful movement sessions each day. It was good to have some familiar movements and some new movements each time that were pitched at a good level…The session seemed like a seamless continuation of the meditation sessions.

  • Brilliantly delivered


    Really good. The teaching was brilliantly delivered and I found the sessions almost necessary given how much time we spent sitting.
