Forrest Yoga with Symi
In your body, in your world, online or in person
Practice live online, or receive a private session designed around your body’s story — offered virtually or in Northamptonshire, Lincolnshire and Cambridgeshire. Wander further into your practice through UK retreats and workshops woven with nature,
breath, and intelligent movement.
Ana Forrest’s lived experience forged the depth and power of Forrest Yoga, a practice rooted in Breath, Strength, Integrity and Spirit. Symi carries this lineage forward, weaving biomechanics with energetic alchemy and intuitive magic — guiding students to awaken their body’s truth and build resilient, embodied strength.
BREATH
Breath is the first kindness we offer ourselves. In Symi’s teaching, it becomes a bridge back into feeling — nurturing the body, softening the heart, and rekindling the small, necessary joys of being alive. Breath is good medicine: it steadies, it restores, it heals.
STRENGTH
Strength is the meeting point of inner fire and outer form. Symi guides you into your core with intelligent mechanics, helping you unravel stuck emotions, support healing, and build resilient, functional strength. It’s not about force — it’s about alignment, honesty, and the courage to feel.
INTEGRITY
Integrity is the truth you choose to stand in — the honesty to feel what’s real without forcing yourself beyond your readiness. In Symi’s teaching, integrity becomes a gentle discipline: recognising where you are, leaning toward where you need to be, and not abandoning yourself along the way.
SPIRIT
Spirit is the part of you that already knows — the instinct in your core, the intuition beneath breath and structure. Symi teaches Spirit as the courage to trust that truth and live from what’s real. As Ana Forrest says,
"The truth is far more fascinating than any fantasy."
