About Ailsa
I’m Ailsa and I have been teaching yoga since 2017 and practising since 2008. I love sharing my practice with students and I am passionate about sharing the mental and physical benefits of yoga. For me, yoga is not simply a physical movement of the body; it is a form of moving meditation, a tool for stress relief and a practice to help you manage your mind.
It gives me so much joy to share my yoga and Yoga Nidra offering with you. My hope is that my yoga offering is a haven of peace and tranquillity for you and can help you to relax, rest and sleep.
Testimonials
"I have been through months of no sleeping for anxiety.. I have even took pills to sleep... But since I started listening to your nidra audios when I go to bed, I can finally sleep again! It is very relaxing and calming! Thanks!"

"Yoga, Tarot and Nidra with Ailsa and Rachael has become my monthly reset and social. Rachael provides deep, enriching tarot readings, blending therapy, neuroscience, and ancient symbology. This is the spiritual element of the session. While Ailsa offers yoga and Yoga Nidra with thorough knowledge and a philosophical grounding. This nurtures both body and mind. Together, they’ve helped me integrate my feminine energy without diminishing my masculine side. And yes—we laugh, have fun, and enjoy sweet treats too. It’s a transformative experience that propels me and my month forward."
