KIRSTEEN JONES & KATE COLWELL’S

Spring Equinox
Day Retreat

Nourish you soul with a day of Yoga, relaxation & wreath making

Saturday | March 22 2025

Step into a Day of Pure Nourishment for Your Mind, Body, and Soul

Imagine a day filled with laughter, connection, and moments of true self-care. A retreat designed to restore your energy, soothe your spirit, and celebrate the changing seasons.

Move freely, release tension, and let go of stress while prioritizing your own healing. Enjoy a nourishing vegetarian, gluten-free lunch and fragrant herbal teas that delight your senses.

Celebrate Spring by creating your own living bulb wreath—a beautiful symbol of renewal. Stretch and unwind during a calming yin yoga flow, letting go of any lingering tension. Then, allow the soothing tones of a crystal alchemy sound bath to wash away every worry, leaving you in deep peace.

Relax with the calming scent of a lavender eye pillow as you rest and indulge in a day that’s entirely for you.

Join me at the intersection of movement, connection, and restoration, where together we’ll help you shift the needle in your life, cultivating balance, joy, and clarity.

This is your invitation to slow down, reconnect, and leave feeling lighter and brighter, ready to bloom with the season.

Testimonials.

  • "Kirsteen has taken me back to where I can enjoy and immerse myself into yoga again and have confidence in the person teaching me."

    I have been practicing yoga, at various times, for over 30 years but, more recently, had been struggling to find a knowledgeable and experienced teacher in the area, and I had lost my love of yoga.

    This Summer I started on a new yoga journey, with a 10 week program with Kirsteen, at Berry Farm, South Cerney. Kirsteen has taken me back to where I can enjoy and immerse myself into yoga again and have confidence in the person teaching me.

    I am looking forward to continue on my yoga practice with her.

    - Kate Somers

  • "Kirsteen is truly an inspirational teacher, radiating warmth, heart, and deep consciousness in everything she does"

    Every session I’ve had with Kirsteen has been transformative. She has an incredible ability to bring me back to myself—reducing my stress, grounding my energy, and helping me find balance in so many ways. Her meditation at the end of practice is also so calming and kind, leaving me feeling completely at peace.

    I couldn’t recommend Kirsteen more highly for anyone seeking healing, connection, or a moment of stillness in today’s busy world. She is a talent!

    - Rebecca Stephens

  • "I could not reccomend Kirsteens classes enough, if your new to Yoga she is the kindest instructor you could have!"

    I always feel at my best and very refreshed after every session of hers that I attend. Kirsteen’s sessions have made me really enjoy adding Yoga into my life and the benefits that it brings really make it incredibly worthwhile

    - Kirsty Pain

  • "In just a short period of time Kirsteen’s beginners classes have made a big impact to many aspects of my well-being"

    I joined one of Kirsteen’s classes earlier in 2024 and I honestly can’t recommend them enough.

    In just a short period of time it made a big difference to both my physical health and general well-being. Kirsteen’s style of teaching is spot on, so positive, inclusive and as a newbie/returner to yoga, easy to follow too.

    There’s no judgement and plenty of giggles and I’ve also met new friends by joining so it really is win, win!

    - Laura Holroyde

  • "The movements have significantly helped with the stiffness in my hips and have released the tension that’s been challenging for me since my hip surgery"

    I recently attended Kirsteen’s beginner yoga course, and it was truly wonderful. I feel stronger both mentally and physically.

    I’ve also noticed that I feel more emotionally balanced and am sleeping better. Kirsteen’s guidance has made a remarkable difference in my overall wellbeing. I have booked for the next course and would thoroughly recommend joining her classes to anyone looking to improve their physical, mental, and emotional strength


    - Mel Cheeseman

  • "Kirsteen has encouraged me to listen more to my body and find what feels right for me while still allowing my practice to grow"

    Kirsteen’s fun and creative classes have really helped me to develop my own personal practice over the last few years.

    Her relaxed style with lots of options for poses, including opportunities to make them more challenging, has encouraged me to listen more to my body and find what feels right for me while still allowing my practice to grow"

    - Emma Croyle

  • "Her classes have helped me in improving my relaxation and my body connection and I really recommend them to both regular and beginner yogis"

    I have been taking Kirsteen’s lessons over four and a half years during which time Kirsteen has revealed the beauty and the benefits of a regular practice and shared her love of yoga. What I found very interesting was to discover how yoga could vary a lot going from a more engaging and challenging class to some more relaxing Yin styles.

    Kirsteen is an excellent teacher. Able to make lessons various and focused on different parts of the body.

    - Valentina Beradi

  • "I never fail to leave feeling a much better version of myself!"

    Kirsteen is the most wonderful Yoga Teacher! She brings a joy and light heartedness to all her classes and I never fail to leave feeling a much better version of myself!

    — Stephanie Nell

  • "Kirsteens classes are the best way to end a stressful day!"

    Kirsteen’s Vinyasa classes are excellent. I leave feeling refreshed yet relaxed, it’s the best way to end a stressful day

    - Kate Foss

  • "The Sound Bath brought an immediate sense of relief and relaxation""

    The Crystal bowl sound bath was wonderfully powerful and restorative.

    I have previously experienced sound baths using other instruments but the quality of sound from the crystal bowls felt more intense, bringing an immediate sense of relief and relaxation.

    Kirsteen was able to harness the strength of the sound beautifully, guiding us through the session with care

    - Esther Metcalf

  • "I can’t recommend Kirsteen’s sound baths enough."

    She creates a beautiful space to relax and unwind. After going to Kirsteen’s sound baths I feel so much less stressed, have incredible sleep and feel restored. Kirsteen is so warm and welcoming and I can’t wait for another class with her soon’

FAQs

  • These day retreats are designed for those that want to take time out to nurture their bodies and minds

    All I ask is that you show up in the fullness of who you are and let the day carry you forward.

    If you are pregnant, epileptic or have any Implants or plates in the body (metal plates, pins, ball joints in particular) the sound bath may not be appropriate for you. Please refer to our further information below or get in contact if you have any concerns.

  • Firstly jump right in and get your retreat ticket with a FULL BODY YES!

    Already the magic is in motion as you commit to yourself.

    Next keep an eye out for a confirmation email.

    As the day approaches you may want to focus on eating well, sleeping well and nourishing your body to get the most out of the experience.
