  • “Deena’s workshop on the Koshas was just brilliant. She is such a thoughtful teacher. Everything she teaches is put together with great purpose and care. We studied each of the five Koshas and incorporated mudras associated with the Koshas into an asana sequence set to music produced by her husband. Amazing. Deena is so talented and creative. She is also the kindest, most intuitive teacher. I feel privileged to be able to attend her classes and workshops”

    Fiona Brandt

  • "Deena is a wonderful yoga teacher who genuinely cares about her students. She has a beautiful yoga den in her garden, providing a peaceful setting to practice yoga while gazing out into the serene landscape. I recently attended her workshop. 'Marching through the Koshas' which served as a great reminder of the Koshas and mudras. I thoroughly enjoyed the flows Deena curated for us and it was particularly special to practice to music produced by Deena's husband. I highly recommend this workshop and Deena as a yoga teacher. She truly looked after us with a well-thought out day and plenty of delicious food!"

The handmade vegan treats and the gorgeous lunch at the Lavender Cafe were amazing. I really love the Yoga Den. It was so warm and cosy but bright and airy too. It truly was an enjoyable day.
