Hannah, founder of Rise Wellbeing Studio, is a compassionate and inspiring yoga teacher dedicated to healing and self-acceptance through mindful movement. Drawing from her personal journey of transforming her relationship with her body, she creates a welcoming space where yoga becomes a tool for kindness, self-discovery, and empowerment.

Millie is a restorative arts practitioner who creates spaces for deep rest and reconnection with the body. Specialising in Women’s Health and Fertility, she offers practices like Yoga Nidra, Sound Healing, Women’s Circles, and Yoga Therapy, all guided by her own journey as an IVF and Rainbow Mother.

-
Rise Wellbeing Studio (Surrey's hidden gem) is a sanctuary of calm and quiet, nestled away from the hustle and bustle.It’s the perfect space to unwind, move gently and rest.
Hannah’s yoga practice started many years ago, taking her on a journey of self-discovery and healing, after spending most of her teenage years exercising as a form of punishment….
Yoga opened her eyes to a new way of moving, centred around movement from a place of kindness.
Hannah is passionate about holding space for other women to do the same. With an emphasis on relaxation and the use of props, her style of teaching is mindful and grounding.
-
After spending over a decade working in the arts, Millie followed her passion and is now offering a safe space for deep rest and coming home to the body using Sound, Yoga Nidra & Women’s Wellness Yoga Therapy to aid people's health, healing and transformation.
Millie works with a number of instruments including Alchemy Crystal Singing Bowls that are made of the highest quality (99.992%) Quartz Crystal, making them incredibly resonant. The tones produced by the Crystal Bowls are not only heard by the ear, you feel them in your entire body. The sound waves synchronise our brain waves to tune into a deeper meditative and healing state, allowing homeostasis to occur on a deep cellular level.
Millie is a devoted Mother to her rainbow IVF/ICSI daughter and dedicates a lot of her work to the fertility & baby loss communities.
“Dear Millie and Hannah. Once again you have pulled off a fabulous Yoga & Soundbath Retreat… It’s a truly special day sharing with like minded ladies in a spectacular space. Just a humble thank you to you both for the effort, energy and total commitment to make the time memorable, nourishing and restorative.”
