Testimonials

Testimonial by Melaine

My visit to Hill Farm couldn’t have come at a better time. I arrived feeling slightly frazzled and very tired and left feeling calm and energised to continue doing my job and caring for my family AND myself. Highly recommended!

Testimonial by Aaron

If you’ve ever fancied trying yoga I’d strongly recommend training with Hayley. Her enthusiasm for yoga makes the sessions really good fun. She mixes traditional techniques and forms with thought provoking themes each week, which add variety to the practice. All levels of ability are made to feel welcome, give it a try and you will not be disappointed.

Testimonial by Lindsey Honour

I started zoom yoga with Hayley at the beginning of (the first) lockdown and I’m so grateful for the time I’ve spent with her and a lovely group of people on the mat since! Hayley puts so much thought and energy into her classes, shaping them around a different theme each week, sharing inspiring thoughts and ideas, introducing us to new practises, and always bringing the fun and positive vibes – and that’s on top of all the amazing benefits of yoga which I’ve only properly understood through her teaching. I feel happy and calm in body and spirit after every class – would recommend to anyone who wants to fell the same! Thank you Hayley!

Testimonial by Nicola Harvey

Just returned from the most amazing retreat in Spain with Hayley and the team. It couldn’t have been more wonderful, yoga practice morning and evening, fantastic food and a fab villa with everything you could wish for including super relaxing treatments. I just wish I was still there soaking up the rays and chillin 😎

Testimonial by A Happy Guest

I have just come away from a weekend retreat and it was absolutely brilliant. Hayley and Tom are fantastic hosts and couldn’t do enough for us. Hayley’s combination of Yin and Yang yoga, Tom’s forest bathing, and nourishing, tasty veggie food, the eco spa and yurt created the perfect blend of relaxation and fun throughout the weekend. The gong bath and massage were also wonderful additions. Thanks so much!
