About your Facilitators: Carol and Kerstin

 

Your Host - Carol Twigg

Carol has run many yoga retreats over the past 3 years. She has a passion for sharing her knowledge of yoga and the Empowerment it gives her students both on and off the mat.

“Yoga has been a part of my life since 2010. My practice has helped me grow stronger, more flexible and fearless, both on and off the mat. Yoga inspires me to live each moment more mindfully."

"I completed my Bikram Yoga Training with Yoga Experience and my 200 Hour Vinyasa International TT with Thrive yoga studio. I continue to study the traditions and Philosophy of yoga as well as the traditions of Chinese medicine, this is where my love of Yin comes in so I decided to study this too. I will always be a student of the practice and am deeply grateful for the loving wisdom my teachers have shared with me."

"In my classes, I love to combine creative sequencing, a spirit of playfulness and a dose of inspiration to help you deepen your practice. I seek to help others thrive in live by nurturing body, mind and soul with yoga, and my hope is that you step off the mat feeling refreshed, nourished and balanced.”

After finding and falling in love with the WHM I have found a deeper and more spiritual connection to nature, to others and to myself. My excitement, energy and passion for the method are all among that which I wish to pass on to any potential future participants. Let's breathe deep, take a dip and share the love. X"
