# The Hearth Studio

The Hearth Studio is a boutique wellness centre in Selkirk, Scottish Borders, offering transformative healing experiences rooted in ancient practices and modern wellness modalities. Founded by Pollyana, an experienced yoga teacher with 18 years of practice, the studio serves individuals seeking personal growth, spiritual development, and holistic healing.

The studio distinguishes itself through its integrated approach to wellness, weaving together yoga, sound therapy, shamanism and community-based practices. Rather than operating as a conventional fitness facility, The Hearth functions as a sanctuary for self-discovery, hosting intimate weekly sessions alongside monthly signature events. Pollyana's background in cross-cultural shamanism, combined with her expertise in multiple yoga lineages including Hatha, Vinyasa and Sri Vydia Tantra, ensures authentic, depth-led instruction that moves beyond surface-level fitness.

What truly sets The Hearth apart is its emphasis on community and embodied healing. Their celebrated Cacao & Dance events create emotionally safe spaces for authentic self-expression, whilst Women's Circles and Men's Work sessions address gender-specific healing needs. The monthly sound baths utilise crystal bowls, Himalayan singing bowls, gongs and frame drums to facilitate profound inner journeys.

The studio appeals to those seeking alternatives to mainstream fitness culture—individuals ready to invest time in meaningful personal transformation, spiritual connection with nature, and participation in a nurturing, like-minded community. The Hearth serves the Scottish Borders region and beyond, attracting visitors willing to travel for authentic, boutique wellness experiences.
