LUMAIA

Freedom to feel, connect & take action

GET IN TOUCH

LUMAIA 
A basque word, meaning "feathered one"

WHAT WE DO
We are an integrated health practice focusing on using the principles of the four domains of health (biomechanics, biochemistry, emotional, scar tissue) to help people feel well.

Based in the South of France and working all over the world, we host group hot yoga (Forrest Yoga) classes, prenatal and postnatal yoga, yoga for pelvic floor health, pelvic education.

We also run private yoga classes, and offer a wealth of other healing modalities, including bodywork (myofascial release, scar tissue remediation, reiki, energetic healing), blood and liver detoxification, gut healing, shamanic healing and rituals, dance, meditation and breath work...

THE MISSION & OUR PROMISE
To help you to take ownership of your well-being — physical, emotional, Spiritual. 

To supply the insights, tools and the support to help you get out of pain and suffering, and move it out of your body.

To clear the stories and untruths surrounding your health that may be reinforced daily through the media, ill-equipped specialists... etc

To bring hope back into your life, especially if you've been told that you cannot heal or get freedom from pain. 

To live in a way that is conscious of our connection to the environment and all the beings that we share this planet with.

We believe in social justice, in freedom, in universal truths and the power of community. We take action to support equality... and we begin with supporting and understanding our own body.
I'm really enjoying your classes, it's amazing how I get so much more benfit from your class once a week. I always look forward to it.  I used to go (bikram/ & power yoga ) three or four times a week and wonder why it wasn't doing anything for me! I'm feeling so much stonger, it must be all the evil abs you make us do!!!

​
I'm a multi-disciplinary practitioner. I uniquely combine my skills to help people feel empowered  to take ownership of their own well-being — physical, emotional, Spiritual. 

MY SPECIALISMS

PELVIC HEALTH 
Education, deep connection, scar tissue remediation, prenatal/postnatal yoga and movement for optimal pelvic function

I am fascinated by and passionate about all things pelvis-related. As a Poppy Perinatal teacher trainer and pelvic health educator, I prioritise the interconnections between pelvic function (biomechanics), health (biochemistry) and the deep magick of the pelvis in my teaching. When interwoven, these elements make up the biomagickal pelvis — a term I've created to describe the power and potential held in the pelvis. 

My passion for pelvic health arose from my own pregnancy loss, subsequent full-term pregnancy, giving birth and postpartum recovery. I have had the honour and pleasure to study with top practitioners in this field —  Catherine Allen, Dr Kathy Dooley, Christine Kent and Dr Ellen Heed who is my mentor for Scar Tissue Remediation and Management (STREAM).

I regularly work with clients with pelvic organ prolapse, stress incontinence, post-birth scarring and other pelvic floor complications. Our work together empowers them to heal their physical and emotional bodies naturally (yes — naturally!).

FREEDOM FROM PAIN  — movement/yoga, bodywork, cleanse/detox protocols... 

Pain is always a sign that something needs to change — a movement pattern, an environment, a relationship, food choices... there are many possibilities  My classes and workshops are created to be healing, pain-freeing, exciting and tailored to whoever shows up. I'm adept at giving yoga pose modifications that will care for for injuries, conditions, pregnancy and postpartum. Problem-solving so that people feel better in their bodies is exciting to me. 


ANCESTRAL WAYS
I have had the honour of studying with and learning from an eclectic mix of Medicine People, including Brooke Medicine Eagle, Patricia White Buffalo and Esther Lim, with whom I worked as an assistant, and of course, Ana Forrest. My most profound Medicine teachings come from my own Spirit guides, nature and my DNA and Spirit ancestors.

COACHING
I'm an experienced leadership, personal exploration and teaching coach, having lead teams in start-up & FTSE 100 businesses. I bring those skills to my teaching as well as compassion, empathy, intuition and truth to everything I do. 

SELF CARE
​Do we ever get enough time for self care?! It is something that I have had to teach myself to incorporate into my life. I'm now really great at spotting myself when I haven't done enough self care or had enough alone time, particularly during moontime bleeding. Guiding people to a ritual of self-care and self-advocacy are important elements of my work.  


PLAYTIME
When I'm not working, I love to dance, and adventure with my family into the rivers, lakes, mountains and oceans... I love playing alongside the forces of nature and magick that surrounds us.
