A few words about what we get up to from fellow Yoga lovers.

"Me and a friend enjoyed a super yoga retreat with Janice at Lake Heviz. And what an experience! The Yoga was great, and the lakeside location idyllic. Janice very expertly catered for everyone's needs and is just great fun to be around. To be able to bathe in a lake with water temperatures >30deg was amazing! I would highly recommend this unusual retreat"

"Janice has been my teacher for 12 years. Initially, Yoga Asana's and Pranayama, and then introducing me to Vipassana meditation. Her knowledge of the body is extensive, and her communication skills and compassion of the highest order. The changes that have occured have been life enhancing." Very Dear Janice, Another simply wonderful retreat with you in beautiful Wales….. It’s our third time there and The White House is always warm, comfortable and welcoming, with a wonderful hosts, a relaxed atmosphere and delicious food to boot. As usual, you are an inspiring teacher, even after 14 years I continue to learn and at 71 am fitter than I was at 21! Huge thanks, I look forward to the next one!

"I have been attending Janice's classes for some years, and have had the pleasure of doing a yoga holiday in Hungary. Each and every class has offered diversity and has offered new challenges. The classes are structured and well thought out, often geared towards working on challenging postural issues and problem areas. Janice gives attention to everyone attending her classes, either in groups or via Online portals – she has a great memory for individuals both as learners or more advanced, and structures her classes accordingly. I recommend Janice’s teaching for any level or ability. She brings a wealth of knowledge to yoga, through the many holistic skills that she has developed to an exceptionally high standard."
