“I love this studio! The zoom classes fit perfectly into my busy life schedule. The teachers are awesome and variety of classes really work for me.”

““There is such a warm & friendly vibe and a fantastic timetable of yoga & Pilates to accommodate everyone. Classes range from chilled Hatha & sleepy Nidra to strong vinyasa flows & hot yoga. Everyone is made welcome & all skills and abilities are supported, whether you’re a complete beginner or an experienced yogi. It’s such a ‘feel-good’ place - I always leave feeling better in both mind & body.
— Rachel
Shadwell Studio has become my home from home - a male the wrong side of 50 and I was made so welcome - the owner Charlotte and all her team of yoga teachers treat you like family. Age and ability is not problem - it is a journey and there is no better place to start that journey. So glad I found the studio - I really believe it has changed my life.”
