"I consider myself very fortunate to have been treated by Brita to aid my recovery after serious illness and also for ongoing musculoskeletal problems. She brings wisdom, respect and great kindness to her treatments, and I find them hugely restoring - physically and emotionally - and I sleep like a log afterwards!” Kate
"Brita introduced me not only to Shiatsu and restorative yoga but also to the invaluable - and too often neglected - concept of 'taking care of one-self' - She has a unique ability to make each session unique, personalised and you are sure to see your stress, tensions and irritations melt away under her touch and soothing sound of her voice." Stephanie
"I love Brita's Friday evening classes. It is a perfect antidote to the accumulated stresses from a working week. Throughout the seasons, Brita weaves many new reflections, and is a wonderful guide for sustained and deepening practice. I'm so glad to have found this beautiful class." Rachel
'"I avoided yoga for many years following spinal surgery and then often experienced classes that just weren't right for me. Brita's gentle and intuitive approach has given me back the confidence and trust to integrate yoga into my life again and the benefits are endless. Her classes are an oasis of calm in my week - no matter how tired I'm feeling beforehand, I leave feeling not only relaxed but also energised and with a real sense that I can regain flexibility and strength again. Just writing that makes me want to unroll the yoga mat!" Denise
“When I lived in Oxford, I was at a real crossroads in my life and trying to figure out what direction to take next. Brita's Friday sessions became an absolute lifeline and taught me the vital importance of self care and connecting to self. Her relaxed and nurturing approach to yoga, combined with her warmth, kindness and genuine care for everyone in the room, was exactly what I needed. The (yoga) sessions offered far more than exercise; they provided space to breathe, reflect and reconnect with myself. Brita has a wonderful ability to make everyone feel welcome and supported, regardless of their experience level.
Although I no longer live in Oxford, I have stayed connected through her online offerings. What started as something I enjoyed has become something I now see as a necessity rather than a luxury. Brita creates a sense of calm, balance and community that is increasingly rare, and I am incredibly grateful to have found her when I did.
I cannot recommend her highly enough.” Karlyn

"Brita's calm, clear guidance works just as well online as in person. I'm appreciating yoga more than ever!" Rachel
“In these extraordinary times I have felt encouraged, strengthened physically and emotionally despite having to use a computer! I would highly recommend the whole experience.” Helen
"Brita’s Yoga class is a wonderful relaxing experience, yet with lots of gentle stretching and yoga poses. It is a quiet and meditative hour which is greatly restorative." Philippa
“Brita is amazing. She really took the time to listen to my concerns and address my issues as well as teach me new stretches and make me more aware of muscle memory and how to retrain my body to avoid injury in the future.” Nancy
"I went to see Brita originally due to back and shoulder aches which I thought were general 'stresses and strains', but gradually, under her guidance and through shiatsu therapy, I feel as though I am waking up and listening to my body for the first time in years. The changes were at first slight, but as the course continued I began to feel more positive about my health and my body for the first time in years. It has also made a beneficial impact on the way in which I work which has been astounding. I count myself very fortunate to have met Brita, and now encourage everyone I know to do the same!" Chris
"Brita’s Shiatsu and Holistic Massage is on another level. She deeply understands the body and works intuitively to release tension and restore balance. Her warm personality shines through and I always feel elevated after seeing her!” Cali
