Jane Hill is a modern mystic and meditation coach and spiritual counsellor, living in the Scottish Borders. She intended to be a lawyer like her father, but after graduating, found that she wasn’t suited to the legal world, and qualified as an archivist, spending the next 25 years working in the archive world. Throughout this time, her spirituality, awakened as a child but suppressed throughout teenage years and early adulthood, became more insistent that it be expressed and she left employment to follow its calling.

Practical in Devon May 2022 Theory May 2022 Qualified Hatha Yoga Teacher May 2022 Not even a year yet what a journey !!!! I am now studying again with BSY pre-natal and postnatal yoga. I specialise in bespoke one-to-ones or small groups, as I feel clients like that personal connection. I am bit of a yoga surfer at the moment, I have two places in Penrith, Cumbria that I use and I work around their businesses. I now have my own yoga studio based in Penrith, Cumbria called Jane’s Bespoke Health, and Yoga Studio. I am doing my first yoga retreat this year with a small group of 5 in a remote part of Greece. If it’s a success, it’s something I would like to make a regular thing. I feel I have so many adventures yet to have for myself and my yogini clients. My business card reflects myself and my Father, the roots from him to me, growing and flourishing. My father used to practice Yoga and I feel connected spiritually to him through Yoga. This is even more poignant since he passed last year of vascular dementia, which is such an awful disease, and sadly he never knew I trained as a Yoga teacher.

Hey lovelies, my name is Elaine, Ellie for short and I am a qualified Nutrition & Lifestyle Coach. My role involves educating, equipping and supporting clients with the knowledge and tools to enable them to look after their own health and well-being, analyse their current diet and lifestyle and what their optimum goals are in life, to help them along the way and to get their mojo back! For many years I struggled with both my diet and lifestyle and I guess you could say I was living the life! However, that all makes an impact on your health as you get older and is just not sustainable. Instead of taking the sensible approach, I followed celebrity diets, newest fads and even total starvation to reach my ‘goal’. Back then my goal was to look like a 6ft supermodel – that was never going to happen as firstly I’m nowhere near 6 feet!! So, I had to re-evaluate my goals and ask myself what I truly, deeply wanted for me, myself and I. It was apparent that I knew I was never going to reach supermodel status and what I really wanted was just to be healthy - a healthy weight, lifestyle and to be happy. What more can a person want! I decided this was a huge area of interest for me so I researched more about it and spent so many hours talking to family and friends about living a healthy life and not purely existing in a sub-standard life and I realised I was really good at helping people. I qualified from IHS (Institute for Health Sciences) in a Diploma in Nutrition and Lifestyle Coaching and now I want to change the world! OK, well realistically, even if it’s a handful of people I’ll be happy. I’m totally passionate about helping people to take a long hard look at how they are living, it’s not just the number on the bathroom scales as that does not equate to being healthy, it’s a combination of your diet, sleep, energy, social connections, work-life balance, stressors etc…. the whole shebang and that’s where I can help. If you are interested in working with me, you can book a free chat.

Neil is the principal teacher and owner of Daddy Shark Swim School! A Swim England Level 2, STA Baby & Preschool, and Autism Swim certified swim teacher, Neil has always loved swimming and all things water-related, whether that be scuba diving or kayaking. As a teenager he swam for Ormskirk Otters and City of Liverpool swimming clubs. Neil lives in Ormskirk with wife, Emma, and daughters, Erica and India. He began his adult life running “sweet shops”, as the girls called them, in Ormskirk and Liverpool. Several years back, Neil sold the shops, Emma quit her job and they took the girls around Europe in a motorhome for a year. Upon their return, Neil became a stay-at-home dad until both girls were at school. At that point, he decided to combine his natural affinity with children with his passion for swimming by becoming a swim teacher, and Daddy Shark Swim School was born. Neil is passionate about making swimming lessons accessible for children (and adults) of all abilities. He firmly believes that children should leave lessons feeling happy and empowered.
