Root and rise

9.15 from Monday 12th May. Online.

Entering midlife and the menopause transition doesn’t have to mean you lose your energy, clarity, or confidence. In fact, with the right kind of lifestyle tweaks, you can feel more powerful than ever. I promise you….

And I’ve designed a new practice that anyone can do (particularly those of you who haven’t exercised for a while) to make sure you get a hit of that power but also a deep sense of calm and contentment.

Root and Rise is a weekly online movement class designed to support women navigating midlife and menopause.

It blends a yoga warm up and energising Chinese Exercises with the transformative energy of Qigong — a 4,000-year-old practice that restores your balance, clears emotional tension, and recharges your life force.

So I gently push you till your heart is really pumping and your muscles are really working - but not so much that it stresses your body or makes you never want to come again! And then the second half of the class is all about getting in touch with your body, your energy and quietening your mind. Honestly it’s the perfect combination.

But if you need more convincing here is what some of my participants have to say:

Alison Redgrove from Equine Shiatsu said:
“A powerful experience leaving me with a sensation of the utmost tranquility. You have a true gift, Caroline, and I can highly recommend you”

Sam Dingle from Young Fire Academy said:

“I felt so held by the space that Caroline creates in the Magnificent Menopause sessions. I love that the focus is on how we can best support ourselves and the potential for growth during this transition through menopause. I particularly love how movement and Qigong is integrated into the sessions. I always come away from our sessions feeling that by giving time for this, I have been very kind to myself. Being kind to myself and finding ways to prioritise this is one of the gifts that Menopause is giving to me. And it really helps to get support in this and know we do it together”

Steffie Broer, Bright Green Futures said:

“I attended a workshop with Caroline recently - fantastic idea. Caroline is one of those special people who not only knows her stuff and has a great sense of humour but also manages to be a calming presence and hold a welcoming space for the group. I know her also as a nutritional therapist as well as a movement practitioner and would highly recommend her, both for her incredible intelligence but also amazing people skills, the magic combo for any therapeutic work!”

So…

Whether you're feeling emotionally overwhelmed, physically depleted or your seeking a calmer start to your week with vitality that lasts the whole day - Root and Rise gently guides you back to balance. No previous experience is needed — just curiosity, willingness, and a desire to feel more at home in yourself.
