HANNAH BEETHAM – THE SOUL SHACK
Hannah at The Soul Shack Yoga and Therapies is a fully certified and insured complementary therapist and yoga teacher.
Hannah first came to yoga at a time when she felt rudderless and had a pretty negative relationship with her body, a job that undervalued its staff (never again, hospitality!) and all the good stuff just seemed out of her grasp. Her Nana had practiced yoga for her adult life and had sworn it did wonders for her health, so Hannah thought she'd give it a bash. She hated her first class. It was slow and boring and talked about breathing, which everyone does… But because she had paid for a block of classes she went back. And again... and again... This started a pretty epic adventure, in which she had some travels, learned to respect and nourish her body and started to shift her perceptions and mindset, calming her monkey-mind and embarking on a 3 year yoga teacher training program, which in turn led her to study as a complementary therapist to try and give more of that feel-good stuff to the people that needed it.
Hannah’s approach as a therapist is firmly rooted in providing practical help and support to people with a variety of issues, but she is also of the opinion that complementary therapies without a bit of woowoo is just a bit grayscale, so you can expect the odd crystal dotted around and the occasional mention of energy or breathwork. Hannah is trained in massage, aromatherapy, Indian Head massage and reflexology and she works in an intuitive way, rather than to a set or rigid routine, aiming to support the person she is working with holistically and as an individual.
She hopes to provide a warm welcome with a gentle, open-minded approach when you arrive, and for you to feel very much better when you leave.
Hannah holds regular yoga classes at Larchwood. Book her directly for 1:1, private group sessions and therapies.
SALMA OTHMAN
Salma Othman is an interdisciplinary worker of yoga, energetics, bodywork, and integrated somatic trauma therapeutics.
A benevolent investigator with a Jungian curiosity, Salma’s personal journey has and will continue to be a dance within dualities. Based on a culmination of esoteric Taoist and Buddhist practices, Shamanic therapeutics, Bodywork, Reiki, Psychomagick, Tarot, and teachings of the Munay Ki, the PsychoSomatic understanding is a baseline thread throughout her work and practices; allowing an integrated trauma informed approach to healing the mind, body, and Spirit.
Salma regularly runs circles, workshops, trainings, and somatic trauma therapy 1-1’s for her business OHM ILLUMINATED, an online hub for alternative healing modalities.
When teaching Asana, Salma pulls from different schools and lineages with an awareness to allow accessibility and curiosity into every person’s personal practice. Instilling autonomy and establishing higher levels of self awareness, or proprioception, is a key theme in her classes. Penduluming with play and presence.
Salma’s value is in creating a space wherein one can feel at ease with unpacking their tensions, from psycho, to soma.
She co-hosts international yoga retreats with Dav Jones Yoga, and together have co-created The Moksha Method:
An approach to personal practice that’s been weaved into retreats recently held in Sicily, Italy, and Wales, UK.

This is a chance to ask questions, get to know your own feet and reflexology reflexes, and have some tea and a good chat! Usually on a Monday evening at 7pm, the sessions will last between 60 and 90 minutes.
