Hey gorgeous souls!
Hello February, here so soon?! I hope the beginning of the year has helped you plant new seeds of intention and find your feet with a new year to explore, grow and connect deeper to yourself and the world around you. January and new year were wonderful for us and I feel in full swing now Ive found my pace and routine. Ive got so much to share with you this year and I'm well prepared for all my workshops, you can find TWO NEW workshops for my monthly workshops at the Forest space and feel grateful to pretty much make this the home of Wildlove events! Here are a few updates as lots of things have been amended and I want to offer you clarity!
-My monthly myofascial session is on hold while I ponder what to do, the venue was sadly to cold so I've taken it off the timetable until further notice.
-My monthly Relaxation Yoga will now be held at the Forest Space - same reason as above, I thought the venue M&M would be perfect but after holding one session it was way to cold for me to comfortably run the session.
-The workshop capacity will be limited to less than before, with more workshops running I want to offer more for everyone, and at a comfortable number for more personal touches.
-Every session is suitable for everyone, if you're ever curious to come along to a class or workshop you will be held and supported the whole way! I promise once you come to one session, you'll be hooked!
-Please read my terms and conditions at the bottom of the post, I no longer offer refunds but am happy to transfer your booking (72 hour notice) to another workshop free of charge. I also hold a no photo policy, this is why you never see the magic of my sessions online! I'm there in my full presence and firmly honour that what I offer isnt about me, but its about you, in your energy and vulnerability.
-Im always looking for testimonials or google reviews, so if you have a minute, your words could inspire so many more to try yoga and help them start their journey to wellbeing.
UPCOMING EVENTS
Here are the upcoming events for this month! There have been lots of changes to this years schedule (already?!) due to different venue conditions not being ideal (Im a perfectionist when it comes to creating any sessions), time slots & life balance. Fingers crossed this new monthly dose of 'Wildlove' events will grow its stability and connection in the home hub that we can call Wyre Forest Discovery Centre!
Workshops are designed as beautiful practices that really help us to create more of a self care routine in our day to day, they are always going to support your wellbeing and I hope spark your curiosity for life. Each session has the season in mind and you can always enjoy something different each time! Enjoy a mix of my offerings all rolled into these specific sessions, you will soon fall in love with yoga and may it be a welcome place that always helps you to find balance.

All workshops are deeper immersions with more of a personal touch, they really give you an opportunity to delve into the realms of self care and personal development. You don't need any experience, you don't need to do yoga, you just need a little spark of curiosity that wants to help you better yourself, improve your health and wellbeing, to gain a clearer mind and to live a more fulfilling life. I promise you wont be disappointed, and maybe, just maybe, after coming to one you may feel so much better within yourself.
You can find each individual workshop details and booking information on the classes & workshops page, if you have any questions or worries please feel free to get in touch.
Whats new for 2024?
NURTURE & NOURISH SESSIONS
1.30-3.00PM
Monthly Sundays in The Forest (indoors)
I'm so excited to share these collaboration sessions with you all this year, myself and Rebecca have co-hosted lots of workshops together before and have manifested our very unique teachings together to create an in depth immersion to relaxation & self inquiry. Rebecca, trained priestess works with astrology & many other magical tools that can help us gain more spiritual awareness when we have more of an understanding of the cosmos. Each month in these workshops she will share a small talk about whats happening astrologically at that time of year, it's fascinating and can offer reassurance when things are a little hectic in your life. Along side her wisdom you can enjoy being wrapped tightly in blankets, head massage, guided relaxation and sound healing instruments placed on and around the body. Lets rest, recalibrate & connect.
These are more personal sessions so the capacity is low.
SELF CARE GIFT BOXES
Self care gift boxes are the perfect little something for those who love the spirited energy of yoga and wellbeing. Handcrafted by Victoria you can enjoy vegan & organic treats and a handpicked Rose Quartz all the way from Avalon Glastonbury. These are limited edition and seasonal so will be updated with new treats and crystals as the year goes by!
HALF TERM FAMILY YOGA SESSION

No experience is needed, just a need for rest. This is a perfect practice for everyone, busy minds, all facets of stress in modern lives. This is the perfect place to reset. I want to fill this space, with gorgeous souls, where we can enjoy the reminder of being human. That we can all be held, without interaction or expression, that we can all softly fall into stillness and ease, comfortably without expectation.

If you would like to leave a review please click the link below, your feedback could be that little spark that could inspire someone to try yoga, to nudge someone in the right direction and helps to build our Wildlove family! Your input creates a ripple effect and inspires others to begin their self care journey, connecting us all as one, you're not a drop in the ocean, you're the ocean in one drop!
Wildlove Yoga is a heartmade business built and created by Victoria Waits. Her offerings are unique, manifested from the heart and strives to bring people back home to themselves. With this in mind the terms and conditions for her offerings are as follows:
+ Classes are inclusive to all, Victoria feels yoga is for every, body. No matter what age or ability you are, you will be held and supported in your uniqueness. Every class offers layers and suitability to every participant, no matter how many are in a class. Beginners are welcome to join anytime!
+ Classes, workshops and events are non-refundable. Cancellations must be made 72 hours before the session starts. Your booking can be rescheduled to another event free of charge once. No shows will still be charged, rescheduling after the event is not applicable. If Wildlove cancels the event you will be refunded.
+ No photo policy - This is something sacred to Victoria's offerings, she will never photograph a session while teaching or its participants. If you attend you are welcome to take photos of the set up/alter/soundscape your personal group or selfies. Please refrain from photographing others, this honours and respects the personal energy and protects their vulnerability while attending.
+ Health declarations are to be filled in when booking a session, this is to keep your account up to date (regardless of if there are no changes), it complies with Wildlove insurance policies and keeps Victoria in the know about any personal requirements you may have. Failure to complete a health form will void your booking. https://www.wildloveyoga.com/health-declaration
+ Personal space while setting up is important for the events, please do not disturb the setting up time. For many venues we are only allocated a 15 minute set up time before the event starts (or we pay for the extra hour). This is precious time to create the magic and appreciate the small wait before the doors open. Please do not enter without Victoria present.
Thank you for being here, for connecting with me, for reading, for listening, for moving with me, for laughing, for sharing and for being a part of the Wildlove family. Allow my connection to you to be a reminder that you can be beautifully human anytime and that when you attend my classes you are accepted and held just as you are.
Thank you for your ongoing love and support,
You are loved,
