Step inside Soulful Sanctuary, the home of Yoga and Pilates in Burton Upon Trent.

Wow, Hello! Thanks for being here! What a whirlwind 2 months it has been. I'd love to say things are settling down a little more now we are open, but the truth is, we really are only just getting started and we have so many exciting ideas that we really cannot wait to share with you all. But let's start at the beginning shall we, and allow me to properly introduce myself, Soulful Sanctuary and our very own blog too!

So Hi, I'm Emma! Founder of Soulful Sanctuary. I decided to trade the push of always needing to do more, be more, and achieve more in the Corporate world, with one that not only recognises, but also supports and promotes slowing things down to listen and tune into yourself and the world around you. And quite honestly, it felt incredible! Like I had found my calling in life. I have always worked from a place of passion, but to now be able to do that with an igniting of the soul feels super special.

Our set up for one of our workshops: Self Love Sunday

Creating a sanctuary

The vision behind Soulful Sanctuary was to create a Soulful space that feels like a safe sanctuary, designed to take you in, give you a great big hug and make you feel like part of the family. We are so pleased the feedback so far is that everybody who enters really feels our vision, and our classes and workshops provide that too. For us, we don't just want that to stop at our door, as we would like to provide much more outside of our classes too...

Introducing Soul to Soul

I'm super passionate about what I do, (as are those who are involved in Soulful Sanctuary), and for us all, we are strong advocates of what yoga is beyond the practice we find on the mat. So for this reason, we would love to share our musings of the mind, as well as facts, tips, and anything else that will invite reflection, be thought provoking, as well as useful, to take yoga off your mat and into daily life with you. So, introducing.... Soul to Soul: Soulful Sanctuary's very own blog. We hope you enjoy reading them as much as we enjoy writing and sharing them, and most of all we hope you they offer you a little something to weave into your daily life too.

Stay Soulful

We really hope we can continue to bring the love with us to spark beautiful, intentional, soulful living into your daily life. So whether you're part of the family as a blog reader, enjoy our classes, join us for workshops, or enjoy wearing our merchandise to inspire your daily living (we'd love to know which of these you are in the comments, by the way), we are so grateful to have you here and as part of the family.

Whilst we hope to be able to inspire something within you, please also know that you very much also do the same for us too. And actually, when communicating with one of our wonderful customers over email the other day, he signed it off with "Stay soulful". And boy did it make me smile! Not only because he clearly gets what we are about (I love this), but also because it's such a beautiful sentiment to always finish our special interactions with. So thanks Tom, this will now become our sign off.

So until next time...

Stay souful
