Yoga.

A gentle, subtle transformation — an awakening.

Like a soft tap on the shoulder, a quiet invitation to listen.

Guiding us inward, back to ourselves — to our bodies, our feelings, our energy.

The simple act of stepping onto our mats to move, to breathe, to be with ourselves — can truly transform our lives.

About Lorraine

Lorraine, of Irish origin, lives and teaches in Aljezur, southwest Portugal.

Rooted in more than a decade of devoted Ashtanga practice, she brings a heartfelt passion for handbalancing and the art of mindful movement.

Her journey took a new direction in 2019, gently unfolding toward the space of teaching and sharing the transformative gifts of yoga with others.

In March 2021, she completed 300 hours of Ashtanga Yoga Teacher Training at Ashtanga Yoga Luxembourg, deepening her commitment to guide others along their path. In more recent years, Lorraine has been studying with & assisting Petri Räisänen at his home shala in Odeceixe.

Lorraine’s classes invite students to reconnect with themselves, cultivate genuine awareness, and discover a more balanced, fulfilling life through the embodied practice of yoga. She believes that each time we step onto the mat to breathe and move, we ground ourselves, find focus and clarity, and gently reshape the way we engage with our world.

Each breath, each movement, becomes a gentle return — bringing us closer to our center, allowing us to meet life’s experiences with presence, openness, and grace.

Sacred Reflections

  • "Lorraine is a wonderful teacher – very sensitive, with clear and precise instructions, valuable corrections, and helpful adjustments. Especially in the private lessons, she gave me a completely new feeling for my handstand. She showed me exercises and techniques that helped me progress enormously in my practice. She also opened up new paths for me in the backbends, which were very enriching. I always felt comfortable, understood, and well-guided with her. Thank you so much, Lorraine – I highly recommend her!"

    Rolf Treusch

  • "Ashtanga classes with Lorraine are my absolute favourite. They beautifully combine strength and softness, and within just a few weeks you can truly feel yourself bloom. Lorraine is an outstanding teacher — full of empathy & kindness — which brings a wonderful balance to the powerful energy of Ashtanga."

    Kinga Tulik

  • "Lorraine is a very gentle, knowledgeable and experienced teacher. She adapts all she knows from her own practice and training and carefully observes the students body and how it moves. I feel taken care of in the lessons. It is such a gift to have a 1:1 yoga lesson, because she is helping me get to know my body, how it moves and what it needs."

    Ada-Josefa Müller

  • "Lorraine's 1:1 yoga lessons via Zoom are so valuable to me. I never thought being taught via Zoom would work, but it does. Lorraine is so observant she notices all of my misalignments as if she were there with me in my space correcting me."
