A lovely introduction for anyone in Solihull who needs a little more rest in their week 🤍

We’re super excited and pleased to introduce as our first Founding Local Partner.

Founded by Gurpreet, Amanda Pearl Yoga & Wellness was created to offer people a space to pause, breath and reconnect - especially in the middle of our busy lives! Gurpreet’s story and approach are rooted in restorative practice and the belief that deep rest is not a luxury but a necessity.

Their Wednesday evening Yin Yoga class in Solihull runs from 7.45pm - 9pm and is designed for a calming midweek reset, with candlelit Yin Yoga and deeply restorative stillness.

And we’re excited to say you can get 10% off with code: “SPOTLIGHT” for the first 20 bookings.

Looking forward to trying this ourselves at next weeks session! 🤍
