> Izzy Webster
Izzy teaches private & group yoga classes as well as pre & postnatal yoga, open to all levels of experience.
Izzy provides a welcoming, friendly & inclusive environment for all to learn in. She works hard to tailor her classes to the needs of her students, encouraging them to listen to themselves & practice at their own pace. Across the range of classes that Izzy offers, she invites you to join her for a fusion of flowing Hatha Yoga, uplifting and balancing your body and mind. Izzy is able to adapt her classes to suit the needs of her students, guiding you through a range of practices. Izzy incorporates techniques such as pranayama (yogic breathing), and monthly you’ll have a chance to enjoy Yoga Nidra (a 30 minute guided deep relaxation ), Yin Yoga (relaxing held poses to deepen flexibility).
Izzy specialises in applying the therapeutic aspects of yoga, both in her drop-in and private classes. A private class is perfect for you if you’d prefer 1-1 attention and a practice designed to your specific needs. Ideally please arrive for class with an empty stomach and wearing comfortable clothing you can move easily in. All mats, props and blankets are provided.
Prenatal & Postnatal Yoga:
These specially designed classes use gentle and safe methods, enabling optimum physical, mental, emotional wellbeing for Mum & Baby. Izzy is currently training as a prenatal, birth and postnatal doula, bringing her additional passion, tools and insights in to her pre and postnatal yoga classes.
Testimonials:
"Yoga classes with Izzy were the highlight of my week during my postpartum journey, she held a space for us to heal and nurtured a community for us to lean on. Something we lack in todays world and that I found saved my sanity more than I few times. A perfect combination of wonderful grounding yoga with yummy baby friendly giggles and story sharing. I recommend it to everyone. From the bottom of my heart thank you Izzy”
Steph Bowley
“When I arrive at Izzy's Postnatal Yoga class I am often on the edge, my body and mind feeling very tense. As soon as I enter the space I feel welcome. Izzy always ensures that there is time to check in with everyone and to hear and gather individual needs for the following session. Her voice leads through the gentle exercises like a soothing song, which bit by bit makes my body and my mind slow down and finally relax. At the final relaxation I am so at ease that I'd love to stay on the ground to finally have a good and deep sleep.”

“Izzy's postnatal yoga classes are a lifeline in the choppy seas of early motherhood. I look forward to it every week & always come away feeling relaxed, refreshed & energised.” Lisa
“Izzy was a fantastic asset to have on my doorstep when I had my daughter. She was able to provide a friendly and caring atmosphere in her postnatal yoga classes where I felt supported and able to be honest about where I was in my parenting journey. This was such a relief as it's so easy to feel isolated and anxious in those early stages. Her classes gave me a chance to see other parents and babies, discuss openly how things were going, as well as being an essential opportunity to target areas of physical discomfort through yoga and actually experience some relaxation in an otherwise hectic and sleep deprived time! She's also just a really lovely person who exudes calm and genuinely listens to what you have to say.” Ellie Comer
Private classes: (available at The Space)
Private classes are designed especially for your needs, whether it be to learn the basics, work on a therapeutic issue, because a group class doesn’t appeal, or to help you take your practice to a more advanced level. Benefit from a personalised class and bespoke Yoga Nidra (guided relaxation) recording to take home with you, so you can continue the beneficial practices in your own time.
Corporate Day Retreats:
Join us in the tranquil village of Burston for a rare chance to relax and revitalise alongside your team. Enjoy private use of The Space whilst learning simple practices for stress relief and relaxation. Leave with a guided relaxation recording to continue your practices at home. Yoga is an amazing way to relieve stress, re-energise, and soothe away the shoulder, back and neck tension classically caused by desk work. Simple techniques lead to a balanced and clear mind, helping us to focus, boosting productivity and helping us achieve our goals with more ease and joy. Learn simple practices you can bring in to the workplace to maintain a healthy, happy body and mind.
Yoga Therapy:
Throughout Izzy’s classes she teaches with a therapeutic approach. Yoga therapy applies simple techniques clinically proven to calm, balance and up-lift your body and mind. In today’s busy times, stress is a common and can be a cause of not only psychological, but physical tension, imbalance or disease. Learning something as easy as controlled, slow breathing can become a valuable tool for finding our way back to equilibrium, and can be easily incorporated in to your daily routine.
Yoga itself is a process of ‘normalisation. This means that the practice of yoga helps to bring you back to your natural state of health and equilibrium from every physical or psychological complaint. In today’s busy and often stressful times, yoga can provide a state of balance, peace, tranquillity, and positivity.
As well as in person classes, Izzy also offers classes on Zoom if this suits you better. These classes are available on Thursdays 6:15pm and Fridays 10:15am. If you cannot attend at the time, these can be emailed as recordings. They are a wonderful way to experience the social benefits of a group yoga practice while receiving guidance and corrections from Izzy. Simply contact Izzy for a booking and receive a simple link to join the class!
