Welcome to Yoga with Charlotte Huggins
I offer general classes in Reigate, Horley and Redhill, one to one sessions and specialist classes in Dorking, Leatherhead, Reigate, Crawley and Horley. I lead yoga holidays and retreats.
I am a BWY certified teacher based in Dorking and have many years of teaching experience with a life long passion for yoga
General classes
These classes are weekly and open to all regardless of age, experience or general fitness. As a professional yoga instructor, I ensure that each individual is able to work at their own pace in accordance with their own personal limits and goals; this means that beginners and those with experience can practise along side each other. Sessions may be suitable for students who wish to regain a sense of wellness after an operation or injury but you should check with your medical adviser first. I will ask you to complete a health questionnaire and will request additional information as necessary.
I teach a weekly class at the following locations:
- Horley
- Reigate
- Nutfield near Redhill
Specialist classes
I offer private yoga sessions which are aimed at individuals and/or specific groups of people:
- Individuals on a one to one basis or small group sessions in your own home. These can be taken on-line if you prefer. This could include sessions for:

Day Retreats at Outwood Surrey
Would you more time practising yoga? Spending a whole day or half a day immersed in yoga is the perfect opportunity to grab some time for yourself to experience different yoga practises in depth and to meet like minded people. Throughout the year I lead a number of retreats held at Lloyd Hall, Outwood Surrey. I teach with my friend Gail Davies, a fantastic teacher with a wealth of knowledge and experience. We design our retreats to be varied and fun ensuring that you return home feeling relaxed, revitalised and well fed since all our days include a delicious and nourishing home prepared meal.
Our next event is an afternoon of tea and yoga on Sunday June 25th 2023. The cost is £45 and we are now taking bookings.
What You Can Expect
My classes are welcoming and suitable for everyone whether you are an experienced practitioner or are new to yoga as everyone practises to their own capacity. I give you agency to set your own thresholds so you can practise in a way that feels in tune with your needs on any given day.
In one to one sessions, I work with you, discussing your goals to ensure that our sessions together are completely tailored to align with your specific needs and interests.
Benefits of Yoga
A regular yoga practise can help you build a sense of embodiment, improve your movement patterns, improve strength, mobility, balance and suppleness in the body. It can help improve your posture. Practising yoga regularly can also help improve many physical and mental conditions and ailments and give you a sense of enhanced well-being.
Asana
Practising postures – know as asana - helps us to become flexible and strong and improve balance. Asana will also keep the joints lubricated helping to maintain their mobility as most positions are weight bearing. As the exercises are weight bearing, asana help maintain bone density helping to combat osteoporosis. Practise can stimulate many of the bodies systems so can improve digestion, elimination and circulation.
Deep Relaxation
Deep relaxation has many proven health benefits including slowing the heart rate and reducing high blood pressure and allows for a sense of rejuvenation of the body and mind.
Meditation
Meditation leads to feelings of tranquillity and serenity that can be carried into all aspects of our lives and helps us to bring clarity. Meditation helps us to focus and be present encouraging us to live our best live in this moment.
Breathing Practices
Breathing practises known as pranayama help to increase lung capacity allowing more oxygen into the whole body. Breathing practises also work to calm emotions and lower stress levels.
About Me
