We’re still bathing in the afterglow of our recent Yoga Nidra and Pranayama retreat at Snowdonia Mountain Lodge. ✨

It was such a joy to spend time with this beautiful group of people — making space for inspiring yoga sessions, breathwork, walks in the mountains, singing, and plenty of good food and laughter together.

There’s something very special about sharing a few days in the mountains: slowing down, breathing more deeply, connecting with nature and with one another, and remembering what really matters.

We’re already planning next year’s Dru Yoga retreats, and have some beautiful offerings taking shape.

And if you’re thinking you might need a little warmth and light at the end of winter, we still have a few places left on our Algarve retreat in February.

It would be a privilege to spend some time with you there. 🌿☀️

We’re doing some filming for the Dru studio in the next couple of days and I wondered if you had any requests?

Specifically, I will be sharing some of my favourite meditations to bring calm, to help you wake up in a beautiful way and use mantra and sound to balance your nervous system.

We will be creating some bite-sized classes that you can use even on a busy day.

If you have any thoughts or feedback please let me know in the comments below. Lots of love from Jane x

 The way we breathe shapes the way we live.

Our Dru Breath & Pranayama Coach Training starts on 26 September — and there are just a few places remaining.

This short clip is taken from a recent free workshop with André. The recording isn’t perfect as it was filmed from the side, but what he’s sharing gives a fascinating glimpse into the depth of this training.

Because breathwork is about so much more than learning a few breathing techniques.

You’ll explore how breathing patterns influence the nervous system, energy and emotional state, and learn practical ways to work with the breath to support calm, focus, resilience, sleep, vitality and everyday wellbeing.

But we go further.

You’ll explore the yogic understanding of prana and pranayama, including the distinction between breath, prana and pranayama, as well as the prana vayus, nadis, marma points and selected Ayurvedic principles.

You’ll also learn how to observe breathing patterns, choose practices appropriately, adapt them to individual needs and guide safe, effective one-to-one sessions and group practices.

And throughout, you’ll deepen your own relationship with breath, prana and meditation through regular practice and reflection.

Whether you’re interested in breathwork for your own wellbeing, want to deepen your yoga and meditation practice, or are ready to develop your skills as a Breath Coach, this is a rich and comprehensive training.

Seven weeks · Online · Live teaching + self-study

📅 26 September – 11 November 2026

We’re nearly full. If you’ve been thinking about joining, now is the time to book your place.

Early Bird ends at midnight tonight! 🌿

There’s still time to join the growing group of people beginning our Dru Breath & Pranayama Coach Training this September.

Over seven weeks, you’ll develop your own personal breath practice while exploring the science and subtle art of breath, prana and pranayama — and gain the skills and certification to guide others.

You’ll learn how to work with the breath to support calm, focus, resilience, sleep, vitality and everyday wellbeing, while developing a deeper understanding of how breathing patterns influence the nervous system, energy and emotional state.

Most importantly, you’ll learn why you choose a particular practice, who it is suited to and how to adapt it with care and precision.

From the physical breath and nervous system regulation into the deeper world of prana and the subtle body, this is a journey that can transform both your own practice and the way you support others.

The way we breathe shapes the way we live.

If you’ve been thinking about joining us, now is the time.

🌿 Early Bird £795 ends at midnight tonight.

Course begins 26 September and runs until 11 November, online with live teaching, daily guided practice and self-study.

Come and be part of this growing community of breath practitioners and teachers.

Enrol now and begin your journey into the art and science of the breath.

Following exceptionally heavy monsoon rains, parts of Gujarat, India, have experienced severe flooding, with thousands of people evacuated and many families losing homes, clothing and other essential belongings. Navsari is among the districts most affected, and communities are continuing the long process of recovery.

We’re proud to share that Thakor Patel and the Dru Foundation India team have been supporting families in villages near Navsari by distributing blankets and clothing. So far, 200 sets of clothing and blankets have reached people whose homes have been affected by the floods.

This is the kind of practical community support made possible through the ongoing work of the Dru Foundation. Every time someone joins one of our courses, attends an event or supports our work, it helps enable projects like this, bringing practical help to communities when it’s needed most.

Thank you to everyone who is part of the Dru community and helps make this work possible. ❤️

✨🔥 Celebrating 27 years of the World Peace Flame 🔥✨

Today we celebrate a very special moment in the Dru story — the creation of the World Peace Flame.

On 31 July 1999, seven flames from five continents were brought together and united into one flame, creating a powerful symbol of peace, unity and our shared human potential. 🌍🕊️

We are incredibly proud that this vision was brought to life through the Dru community, and that the World Peace Flame continues to shine around the world — inspiring people everywhere to remember that each one of us can make a difference.

Peace is not only something we wish for. It is something we create — through our thoughts, our choices, our kindness, our compassion and the way we connect with one another.

Tonight, we invite you to join us for 90 Minutes of Peace — a special celebration of the World Peace Flame with meditation, gentle movement, mantra, a Ceremony of Light and Voices for Peace chanting.

Together, we will pause, reconnect and add our own light to this global vision of peace. ✨

🕊️ Join us online or in person at Snowdonia Mountain Lodge.

Let’s remember the light within ourselves — and the difference we can make when we come together.

Book your place here:

Honoring the peace and light within ourselves and radiating it into the world.

Are the mountains calling? 💚⛰️

This summer has been especially beautiful here in Eryri (Snowdonia). Long, warm days, dips in the river, clear skies and the peace of the mountains make it a wonderful place to pause and reconnect.

If your heart is longing for a few days away, we’d love to welcome you.

Our Wild Walking, Yoga & Meditation Retreat in August is now fully booked, and we have just one room remaining on our Yoga Nidra Retreat in October.

You may not know that, alongside our retreats, we also offer self-catering accommodation here at the Dru Yoga Centre. If you’re looking for a last-minute UK escape, we still have a couple of midweek rooms available during the summer holidays, with a special midweek offer.

As an added bonus, guests staying with us midweek are welcome to join our complimentary yoga classes.

Whether you’re returning to a place that feels like home or simply craving fresh mountain air, peaceful walks and time to recharge, we’d love to welcome you back to Eryri.

Let us know when you last visited and what your plans are for visiting Eryri – Snowdonia again!

To find out more, simply get in touch with our hospitality team. We hope to see you in the mountains soon. 💚

For many years we've been asked whether Dru could offer some Sanskrit training.

It's something I've wanted myself. I've bought books, searched for videos and tried to find ways to learn, but I often found Sanskrit quite intimidating. It's such a beautiful and profound language, yet knowing where to begin can feel overwhelming.

That's one of the reasons I'm so pleased that Julian Singh is offering this workshop.

As a Dru Yoga teacher and long-term Sanskrit student, Julian has a gift for making this ancient language accessible, practical and relevant for modern yoga teachers, meditation teachers and mantra practitioners. Rather than getting lost in complexity, he'll help us build a clear foundation and greater confidence with the language that sits behind so much of yoga.

If you've ever wanted to understand Sanskrit more deeply, but weren't sure where to start, this workshop could be exactly what you've been looking for.

**Practical Sanskrit for Yoga Teachers**
21–22 June
Online – 2 hours each day

A few places are still available.
