Welcome to

Bhava Yoga Studio

Namaste, I’m Zhanar, a British Wheel of Yoga teacher with over 24 years of practice. Yoga has been my anchor through life’s biggest challenges, from losing both my parents to rebuilding my life after moving from Kazakhstan to England.

Yoga helped me heal, breathe, reflect, and reconnect. It softened grief, steadied my emotions, improved my flexibilit, and gave me a community when I needed it most. When I drifted away from practice, I felt the difference deeply — tension, overwhelm, and emotional fatigue. Returning to the mat reminded me of the strength, peace and clarity waiting within.

Yoga is more than movement. It relieves stress, balances the body and mind, and opens the heart. Through soothing asanas and mindful breathing, it offers harmony, resilience and inner steadiness.

Teaching Hatha yoga is my way of sharing what transformed me. I’m creating a space where others can find calm, strength and connection within themselves.

Each class is a gentle 60‑minute journey. It begins with a warm up, moves into a steady standing flow and closes with meditation and deep relaxation. All equipment is fully prepared, and each class is designed to suit everyone — whether you’re new to yoga or deepening your practice.

I hope my classes help you feel supported, grounded and gently empowered on your own journey.

A Day For Yourself: Yoga Day Retreat on a Budget

Friday, 21 Aug 2026

In a world where our days are filled with endless to-do lists, finding time to simply pause can feel like a luxury. We often tell ourselves that we will relax when the work is finished, when the house is organised, or when life becomes less hectic.

But what if you didn’t need a week-long holiday to feel refreshed?

A day retreat: one intentional day dedicated to slowing down, stepping away from routine and giving yourself space to breathe is maybe what you need.

What Is a Day Retreat?

A day retreat is a short escape from your usual routine that focuses on relaxation, reflection, wellness or personal enjoyment.

The purpose isn’t to pack your day with activities. In fact, the opposite can be more beneficial. A retreat gives you permission to do less, slow down and be present.

At Bhava Yoga Studio, we don’t want to create a full itinerary packed with activities that may overwhelm you. We don’t want you to focus on being productive; we want you to relax and enjoy your time with us.

Throughout the day, we will enjoy gentle activities and pause for breaks whenever you need them. We offer yoga sessions to help you connect with your body, meditation sessions to calm your mind and walking sessions that encourage you to slow down and appreciate the beauty of nature.

Whatever activity you choose, each one is designed to nurture your inner peace, help you reconnect with yourself, and cultivate gratitude for Mother Earth.

The Real Purpose of a Day Retreat

A day retreat isn’t about escaping. It’s about stepping away from the chaos of everyday life and giving yourself a day to breathe, slow down, and come back feeling stronger.

You can return home feeling rested, having simply enjoyed a peaceful day without needing to achieve anything.

And that’s enough.

Sometimes, the greatest luxury is time.

Time to breathe.
Time to think.
Time to notice.
Time to simply be.

Join our Autum Yoga Day Retreat in October and let it be.
