# Pincroft Yoga
Pincroft Yoga is a specialist yoga studio in New Barn, Kent, run by certified teacher Gemma. Rather than offering high-intensity fitness classes, Gemma teaches yoga as a genuine practice of healing and reconnection, drawing on her own transformative experience with the discipline.
The studio serves people seeking to develop a deeper relationship with their bodies and minds—those who want to feel genuinely met rather than pushed. Classes blend movement, breath and stillness, deliberately avoiding correction in favour of invitation and choice. This trauma-sensitive, consent-led approach makes the studio particularly welcoming for people recovering from disconnection, anxiety or past physical experiences.
What sets Pincroft Yoga apart is its philosophical foundation. Gemma's teaching is informed by somatic practices (understanding how the body stores experience), deep respect for yoga's cultural roots, and an explicit rejection of the self-improvement narrative that dominates modern wellness. She reopened her studio post-maternity with renewed clarity: to offer something real and quietly powerful, rooted in respect and care.
Classes run for a full hour, with 45 minutes of structured practice and 10-15 minutes of restorative savasana. The intimate garden studio in Pincroft Wood creates a contemplative setting far removed from commercial gym environments. Gemma has completed 200-hour teacher training in Rishikesh and continues expanding her knowledge through specialist courses in areas like somatic awareness.
