Hello I’m Candice
I’m a Yoga Alliance Professionals accredited yoga teacher with a passion for guiding students towards deeper self-awareness and relaxation. After graduating from Triyoga London, I now have the joy of supporting trainees, helping them grow and flourish on their yoga journeys.
My teaching includes Yoga Nidra, a deeply nourishing relaxation practice that encourages profound rest and rejuvenation, as well as Yin Yoga, known for its calming, restorative benefits and ability to cultivate mindfulness.
I also specialise in children's yoga, having completed a 100-hour specialist training with Yoga Campus Kumarah. My approach blends yoga with creativity, empowering children to discover confidence, joy, and self-expression through playful movement and imaginative practices.
"You carry Mother Earth within you. She is not outside of you"

Join me at the The Kent Wellness Festival 2025 for a playful yet relaxing Daoist Flow class Saturday and Yin on Sunday.

My Regular Classes
Slow somatic movements mixed with Qigong
In China, Qigong is considered a preventative medicine. We will work with the Meridians (energy lines) clearing them from energy blockages.
You will feel energised, calm and your tensions released.
Beginners level, all levels.
Deep rest to release stress & tension.Yin yoga involves holding poses for 3-5min to release muscles and tensions.
You will feel a profound state of relaxation, energy blockages released, your sleep improved.
Yoga Nidra is a guided relaxation with sound healing. Deep state of relaxation, stress & anxiety reduced, sleep quality improved.
“I absolutely love this class. Even if I’m feeling fatigued I still go because I know I’ll come out feeling better. Candice is very attentive and aware of everyone’s uniqueness. She always has ways of achieving a pose while maintaining comfort and safety. Extremely beneficial and extremely relaxing.”

“Yoga with Candice is great! Really enjoyed the yoga with goats in the Summer, this made me want to start a beginners course which included qigong. Loved the slow movements and how it relaxed you with the mindfulness and breathing, very good for your wellbeing. Candice is very informative and lovely lady.”
