About Hannah

Hannah is the founder of Good Life Yoga School, a teacher training school focussing on vinyasa, restorative practices, and the psychology of moving to music. A yoga teacher with 13 years' experience, she is also a musician and psychotherapist and teaches vinyasa by synching breath and movement to a steady beat of music she has created, aiding flow state and regulating the nervous system. 

Hannah grew up a professional ballerina (the ballet shoes went on at the age of 2), before a History degree from Cambridge, a post-grad from the Royal Academy of Music, and several years in the West End in musical theatre, whilst also working as a Producer and writer. Finally, she followed the one calm influence in her life, and flew to India to train as a yoga teacher!

She has since trained in Ashtanga Vinyasa, Rocket, Mandala Vinyasa, Qigong, Yin, Embodied Yoga Practice and Trauma-informed practice. At the heart of her teaching is finding comfort in the body, as well as guiding students to become the experts of their own practice, so they can listen to their body's needs and respond in the way they choose to practice. 

You can find Hannah teaching around SE London, or running trainings, immersions and retreats around Europe. Alternatively, you will find her snuggling her two dogs, Fred and Dana. 

About Kerry

Kerry Flower is the founder of Together we Breathe, a wellness company dedicated to creating nurturing and enriching experiences where individuals can reconnect, grow, and find joy. With a deep passion for healing practices and personal transformation, Kerry brings warmth, wisdom, and authenticity to every retreat she leads.

In 2024, Kerry travelled to Botswana and Zimbabwe, hosting her first retreat at Munga Plains. There, she fell in love with the vast open landscapes, vibrant cultures, kind hearted people, and nourishing food. This experience sparked a lasting connection with Africa, and she now returns regularly to host immersive wellbeing retreats that honour nature, celebrate culture, and support deep inner renewal.

A qualified yoga teacher and certified Transformational Breathwork coach, Kerry offers deeply healing breathwork sessions designed to release stress, shift consciousness, and foster emotional clarity. Guests often describe these experiences as powerful catalysts for peace, presence, and personal transformation.

Alongside breathwork, Kerry provides personalised yoga support with safe, nurturing adjustments to help you feel confident, aligned, and empowered in your practice no matter your experience level. Whether you're building a new foundation or working towards specific postures, her guidance is thoughtful, supportive, and attuned to your unique journey.

Kerry’s retreats are more than a getaway they are an invitation to slow down, reconnect with what truly matters, and rediscover the joy of being fully present. Delivered with care, intention, and love (and always with a spirit of fun), every detail is thoughtfully crafted to help you feel seen, supported, and renewed.

What to Expect:

Hannah will guide you through daily Vinyasa Flow Yoga, Ashtanga or Rocket, all designed to rejuvenate your body and mind, taught to a steady beat to regulate the nervous system and access flow state. You’ll also experience mindfulness, qigong, and breathwork exercises to cultivate inner peace, clarity, and presence, all to the soundtrack of the nature around us.

There will also be an opportunity to experience a powerful Transformational Breathwork session led by Kerry, which can have profound effects, helping to release trapped emotions and move forward to a place of acceptance and joy.

Kerry will be on hand to help support and assist and help you achieve any postures or help support you on your yoga journey.
