the night of hecate yoga retreat day
saturday 14 november 2026
Join me just before The Night of Hecate with a magical day of purifying yoga, seasonal nourishment and heartfelt connection. Hecate is the mysterious Goddess of crossroads, magic and the unseen - the night and the New Moon. In Greek mythology Hecate lit Demeter’s way on her search for Persephone after she was abducted into the underworld. The Night of Hecate is usually celebrated on the night of the New Moon and is marked by offerings of food and items that hold personal significance, often left at crossroads or at the threshold of homes. It is a time for purification, charity, and seeking wisdom and guidance for the year ahead. Our morning session will be a Vinyasa Flow practice, complimented by an afternoon session of quiet Restful Restorative Yoga. This Night of Hecate Celebration takes place in the most stunning, spacious and bright venue in Kensal Rise and is open to all levels.
the yoga sessions
During this Night of Hecate Retreat Day you will enjoy two thoughtfully designed yoga sessions.
The Morning Session (120 mins) Breathing, Vinyasa Flow and Guided Relaxation
The Afternoon Session (90 mins) is a stiller practice of nurturing Restorative &/or Yin Yoga and Guided Relaxation
All practices are woven together with poetry, insight and inspiration.
colourful & seasonal food
Enjoy a delicious, vibrant, Vegetarian lunch after the morning practice. All the courses and afternoon treats are homemade by me - created from scratch using fresh, seasonal ingredients. Lunch and afternoon tea are served casually on the lovely bright mezzanine. All recipes are available after each retreat day so you can enjoy cooking them at home.
