Yoga – Pilates – Sports Massage – Soft Tissue Therapy

Welcome to Movement & Massage Therapy with Roo.

Whether you are here for sports massage, yoga, pilates, or help with pain and physical injury, Roo is a highly experienced and qualified soft tissue therapist and yoga and pilates instructor, with over 10 years of helping people of all abilities find joy and freedom through their bodies.

The premise is simple – when you move better you feel better!

Retrain your body’s movement habits, reset breathing patterns, and wake up your brain-body connection for a safer, smarter, and more sustainable way of moving that will carry over into everything you do in life.

Roo teaches a modern movement methodology that combines physiotherapy with ancient wisdom and strength of heart. Training under various physiotherapists and experts in their fields, Roo’s spirited teaching seamlessly blends physiology, neurology, and biomechanics with human feeling.

The result is a truly holistic and therapeutic movement practise that will make you both feel stronger and bring you balance, as you learn to move with grace and ease, both on and off the mat.

Stand taller, feel brighter, and breath deeper – for freedom, joy, and energy – for life!

Public classes:

Dynamic Flow Yoga

Challenge your brain and your body with this spirited practise! An athletic style of yoga where we will flow, breath, sweat, and train together – with opportunities to work on arm balances and handstands. Suitable for those who have experience practising yoga, and have some knowledge of the poses. If you love to move and break a sweat, this is for you!

Gentle Flow Yoga

This is a gentle approach to flow yoga – taught a steady pace and for those with injuries in mind. This is a great place to start if you are new to yoga, more time is given for detailed instructions and adjustments within postures, whilst also giving you the chance to flow on the mat and move your body.

Yin/Restorative Yoga

If all you want to do is lie down in a dark room, and drop into a state of deep calm, peace and relaxation, then yin yoga is for you. Relax and restore, with meditation, deep breathing, and gentle massage blended masterfully through the class. Blocks, bolsters, and props will be used to support your body as you relax into various postures, which are held for 2-4 minutes. This is time for you. Blankets and cosy socks encouraged 🙂

I am pretty new to Yoga, private lessons with Roo have been everything I hoped for. Roo strikes a great balance between making the class challenging yet enjoyable. She also explains the concepts/poses well in way- someone new to yoga gets! Physically I feel like I am noticing a real difference in my ability in a short space of time and mentally I am starting to feel different- in a really positive way. Thanks Roo x
