Bring more self love and compassion into your life

with Shamanic Yoga Odysseys

Why Yoga by Candlelight?

I call it Yoga by Candlelight because within each of us lives a sacred flame — the light of spirit, courage, and remembrance.

In the soft glow of the candle, we step into ceremony. We breathe with the elements, listen to the whispers of the body, and awaken the soul’s ancient wisdom. 

This practice is more than movement; it’s a journey — a shamanic weaving of breath, sound, and stillness that invites you to meet yourself beyond the ordinary.

As we move by candlelight, we honour the darkness as sacred space — the womb of transformation — and we learn to trust our own light to guide the way home.

Shamanic Odysseys

These journeys guide you through sacred lands and ancient landscapes, immersing you in powerful ceremonies and rituals that awaken presence and insight. Along the way, you’ll explore your inner world, connect deeply with your intuition, and experience profound transformation that harmonizes body, mind, and spirit. Each odyssey is a unique, immersive pilgrimage where nature, ritual, and self-discovery converge, leaving you renewed, inspired, and deeply connected.
