Reclaim your mobility and soothe midlife aches with specialised yoga for women over 45. who are going through menopause. Serving the Bexleyheath, Bexley, Sidcup and Eltham areas.

Are you experiencing stiffness, grinding joints, or constant aches? We can loose around 60% or our joint cushioning ( synovial fluid), especially women in menopause. It can feel like the joints are grinding bone-on-bone, leading to inflammation and reduced mobility.

My Gentle Vinyasa style slow flow classes in the Bexley and Greenwich Boroughs are designed to "undo" this physical impact. Through mindful slow movement, we work to:

• Lubricate joints: Gentle movement to encourage synovial fluid flow.

• Lengthen muscles: Deep stretching ti release tension of the week

• Calm the nervous system: Breathing exercises to manager menopause- related anxiety.

Hi I'm Stefanie

Yoga, Stretching & Menopause Recovery Specialist

Move with Ease. Age with Strength. Live without Stiffness.

Yoga entered my life exactly when I thought I didn’t need it.

I don’t just teach movement; I understand the struggle of a body that feels like it’s "done in."

As a woman over 50 currently navigating menopause, I know that after 45, our bodies don’t just change—they require a completely different approach to fitness. My mission is to bridge the gap between low mobility and the vibrant, fluid life you deserve.

My Journey: From "Done In" to Bali

In 2010, I hit a wall. Diagnosed with Hyperthyroidism and exhausted by new motherhood, my body reached a breaking point, manifesting in severe hives and a deep sense of self-doubt. I felt lost in a void, disconnected from a body that was speaking volumes I wasn’t yet ready to hear.

Yoga became my lifeline. It started as an uncomfortable struggle with a stiff body and a racing mind, but it grew into a passion. In April 2024, I traveled to Bali to complete my 200-hour Yoga Alliance Teacher Training. I didn't just learn poses; I learned how to adapt movement for bodies under stress. It was a life-changing accomplishment, that solidified my commitment to helping others feel truly great within their own skin.

The Science: Why My Method Works for You

Having navigated my own health hurdles, I am uniquely qualified to help men and women over 45 move past self-doubt and physical stiffness. I’ve dedicated myself to researching the ageing anatomy, specifically how muscles and joints change as we grow older. 

My sessions in the Bexley and Greenwich borough focus on:

• Fascia & Connective Tissue: I use specialised stretching to hydrate the "sticky" fascia that causes morning stiffness and chronic aches.

• Menopause-Specific Yoga: Tailored sequences for women over 45 to manage hormonal shifts, bone density, and nervous system regulation.

• Functional Mobility for Men & Women: Whether you are recovering from a health setback or managing low mobility, I adapt every movement to your current range of motion.

A Space for Everyone

Whether you are a man looking to regain flexibility or a woman seeking support through menopause, you shouldn't have to navigate these changes alone. I bring a blend of scientific research and lived experience to every session, ensuring you feel seen, safe, and supported.
