My Story
An intro to movewithmegs
Hey team! My name is Megs and I am a retreat host, yoga instructor and owner of Hotpod Yoga Putney.
​
I went to my first ever Hotpod Yoga class in Newcastle back in 2018 whilst I was a student at Newcastle university and was mind-blown by how effective it was in calming my anxiety and getting some amazing mobility into my body.
​
After a 3 year career with L'Oréal, I decided to turn to business and yoga full time. I made the nerve-wracking decision to quit my big city job and build my own business in the thing I love the most. I did my 200hr vinyasa teacher training with Hotpod in Hackney and after around 8 months of hard work (and realising the building/tiling/legal life wasn't for me) Hotpod Putney opened in Jan 2023. Making Hotpod Putney a reality was probably my biggest achievement to date. My amazing customers and wonderful instructors make working there a dream (yet not easy!)​
​
I have now reached out into retreats to expand upon the amazing effects of yoga. Taking yourself out of London/big cities every now and then and working on your mind and body in some beautiful nature does wonders for mental health, and I'm all about that!
​
I am also vegan and you can be rest assured, all my retreats will reflect that (if not fully vegan, focused in this area of food still!)
​
I hope to inspire and lead as many people as possible towards yoga, creating a momentary escape from the bustling London life.
