Rachel Barker - Yoga TeacherThe heart of Rachel’s work explores the wisdom of earthly living, connection, communication, conservation and a belief that we are meant to feel well in life.
Rachel trained as a nature and health facilitator, and after 10 years practicing yoga, studied yoga and mindfulness on an 18-month teacher training programme to deepen her understanding and experience the ways we can integrate age-old teachings into modern-day living. Rachel continues to study the practices she shares, through dedicated practice, attending her teachers’ classes, workshops, studying philosophy and noticing what happens in life and how we respond. In 2020, Rachel founded Rise and Wild as a way to bring together her work guiding outdoor, nature-based wellbeing programmes, mindfulness interventions, rewilding and crafting workshops, wellness walks and yoga classes. |

Cath qualified in 2022 with distinction and was awarded the Dorothy Carroll award for Top Final Clinical Exam at the Power of Plants Festival.

Donna Edwards, Yoga TeacherDonna trained as a dancer for many years, which gave her a passion for movement and creativity. After suffering with mental health issues, she found the practice of yoga which guided her back to finding peace in movement, and clarity in stillness.
After a few years practicing as a student, the passion to share the depth of this practice led her to completing her 200 hour yoga teacher training in Rishikesh, India. Since then she has been devoted to continuing her study through different aspects of yoga including the Sanskrit language, Yin yoga, Mandala and Sound Ceremony. Through her teachings, Donna is passionate about the creation and holding of a space, for all to experience the unfolding of your own practice, in your own way. Donna seeks to show you the tools to take your yoga practice off the mat, offering guidance from different spiritual and yogic philosophies. She encourages each student to honour that they are there own greatest teacher. |
Hazel Young - Yoga Teacher, Sound PractitionerHazel was first introduced to yoga as a form of movement, without knowing how much more the practice could really offer. As such, she tried a few classes and styles before finding one that resonated... and then it changed her life.
Over a decade later she is an immensely experienced yoga teacher with thousands of hours of face-to-face and online classes under her belt. Having taught professional football teams, absolute beginners, hen parties and everyone in between. Her classes are warm, fun, and inclusive. Students are encouraged to find a practice that suits their individuality, and works for their mind, body and spirit. Her aim is to create a space in which students can connect with their true potential, and that everyone leaves classes feeling a little more like themselves. As well as a registered yoga (and children’s yoga) teacher, she is a CMA-accredited Sound Healing practitioner and singer, holding regular sound bath sessions. Her dedication to learning extends far from her mat and you will often find her reading, researching and deepening her knowledge through practice and theory. |
