Testimonial:

“I met Alice a couple of years ago and after my first class with her, I was a committed fan. She is an incredible teacher – mindful, creative, intuitive, and inspiring. The retreat we’ve just returned from at the beautiful Fair Oak Farm was no different. She created the most wonderful energy both in and out of the yoga studio and a relaxed, warm atmosphere during our stay. Fair Oak Farm was the perfect place to retreat to reset, recharge, refuel, and spend some juicy time practicing and exploring. It was expertly organized, with delicious food, fantastic yoga, fabulous people, and all in the most beautiful place. Couldn’t recommend more!” – Peta Cornish
