‘Involute Fundamentals’ is a six-week yoga course for women, designed to introduce you to the internal workings of your deep, postural muscles, from where we derive our inner, ‘yin’ strength of ‘beingness’. It is an embodied, experiential course, meaning that we will be using targeted postures and practices that help us to tune in and actually begin to visualise, sense and feel these subtle, deeply buried muscles, possibly for the first time in many cases. The overarching intention behind the course is to guide our awareness deeply within ourselves in order to ground and centre into the mysterious depths of our being, helping us to know ourselves more truly and build inner strength, from a wise, deep, more feminine place. Much of our practice will be focused on the abdominal and pelvic region of the body, although we will also explore the idea of integrated body wisdom, through connecting to our bodies at the level of fascia, which forms the intelligent interconnectivity between all the different parts we will be looking at. Alongside the targeted anatomical aspect of this foundational course, we will also explore female-centric supportive yoga practices such as womb-honouring sequences, gentle breathwork, yoga nidra, kriyas, mudras, mantras and yin/restorative postures.
The course will be a small, closed group, to create a safe container that we can relax and expand into, allowing us to explore and gently lean into our edges of trust and intimacy. We will begin each session with a ‘sharing spiral’, which can be a profound and very healing space in which each person in the circle has the opportunity to share whatever is present within them, and we go round the circle as many times as we need until everyone is complete (with an awareness of time of course, so we still have time for the yoga!). When we are not speaking, we practise holding and witnessing each person’s sharing, through active listening and non-judgemental embodied presence.
This course is a pre-requisite for participation in my more in-depth Involute women’s yoga course, Involute Deepening, and any additional related courses I run in the future. By becoming familiar with our own internal structural framework through this foundational course, we build a safe container from which to feel confident to dive even more deeply into the mysteries of our female bodies and reclaim the treasure held within us.
The course includes six three hour in-person sessions, one each week. In between the immersive sessions you will be given written notes of all the content that we cover, home practice suggestions, journalling prompts and bonus guided practice videos to do at home, plus ongoing support from me throughout the course.
For those who have already completed my Involute Fundamentals course (2024) or online Involute course (2023), this course represents a more in-depth look at Part 1, Deep Core Awareness, as I now feel that this fundamental experiential anatomical work is the essential bedrock for subsequent courses and requires more time dedicated to it. Therefore I feel, as well as being an opportunity to reconnect to this important work, it will also provide you with more in-depth experiential understanding as mine and your own understandings of this work deepen.
Standard price of course: €180
Price of course for those who have already completed Involute Fundamentals (2024) or Involute online (2023): €150
If you book on to both Involute Fundamentals and Involute Deepening 2025 and pay for both together up-front you receive a discount of €30 off each course, making it €300 standard price for both, or €270 if you’ve completed Involute Fundamentals/Involute online with me previously.
There will be the option to purchase a bound booklet of all of the course notes at the end of the course for a small additional price to cover costs (usually around €10).
Please note that this course will also run online, via Zoom platform, on consecutive Tuesdays, 7-9pm, January 6-February 10 2026, at the same price as above and with the same course content.
Involute Fundamentals
Dates: September 16, 23, 30, October 7, 14, 21 2025 in-person / January 6, 13, 20, 27, February 3, 1o 2026 online.
Includes the following content and more:
Week 1 – Introduction to Involute Fundamentals; understanding the difference between our ‘yin’ muscles of postural being versus our ‘yang’ muscles of doing; the importance of centering and grounding; and the importance of deep core awareness for health and vitality. Cylinder of postural support and specific deep core muscles: transverse abdominis (front ‘wall’ of the Cylinder of postural support) and adductors.
Week 2 – Exploration of specific deep core muscles: internal obliques, multifidus – the ‘side walls’ of the Cylinder of postural support.
Week 3 – Exploring the iliopsoas muscle, ‘muscle of the soul’, as a container for unprocessed emotions and trauma; its role in fight or flight response and trauma response. The ‘storeroom and stairs’ of the cylinder of postural support.
Week 4 – Exploring the pelvic floor diaphragm – the ‘basement’ of the cylinder of postural support.
Week 5 – Exploring the respiratory diaphragm – the ‘roof’ of the cylinder of postural support.
Week 6 – The Deep Front Line and foot & throat diaphragms – putting it all together through integrated fascia awareness.
This course leans more towards a yin rather than yang style of practice, as it is designed to help us reconnect to and allow the gifts of our feminine energy to be acknowledged, understood and allowed to blossom. This course is designed for women, due to our different anatomy and particular experiences (for example menstrual cycle, childbirth, miscarriage, abortion, menopause), especially at this potent time on the planet, where a rise in feminine energy is required for balance. It is a big question of mine: ‘What is it to be an empowered woman at this time?‘, and I will be encouraging us all to hold this as an ongoing enquiry throughout the course. That said, one of the key themes throughout the course is finding the complementary balance between our personal unique blend of yin and yang energies. When we polarise into the feminine mysteries, the masculine energy within us must rise too, in order to support our deep dive into what can sometimes feel dark, chaotic and confusing, and provide a safe way back to the light and to order, structure and the deep peace of embodied understanding that can follow. Therefore, we will be acknowledging, exploring and honouring the complementary nature of the masculine energy within us and around us too.
I bring to this course over twenty years experience of being a dedicated student and teacher of yoga as well as being a more recent student (five to ten years) of other ancient modalities of healing and transformation, including shamanic practices (especially within the Celtic and Toltec traditions) and Chinese energy systems such as Tai Chi, Chi Gong and Taoist practices. This course represents my passion and life-work and I draw upon my own embodied experience to bring to you a carefully crafted journey of involution, gently beginning our journey of spiralling in towards the deepest, most mysterious layers of our being. The course content will be primarily but not exclusively drawn from the huge body of wisdom held within the ancient yet ever-evolving yoga tradition.

Please get in touch to book on – advance booking is essential. I do hope to sit in circle with you and support you on a precious journey of inner connection to your beautiful body and beingness and unique magic this autumn!
Involute Testimonials
“I think the biggest change for me has been that I am even more aware of myself – my physical body, and the inner workings of my mind, then I was before. I know myself better.”
“By taking the time to explore the workings of the body in a relaxing meaningful way I’ve finally learned to appreciate that it’s OK to relax, it’s OK to delve deep not to be scared of what I might unearth for each small movement provides greater appreciation for my body. I feel more accepting & in tune with my body.”
“The journalling was an unexpected favourite. I have never really got into journalling before with much success but the prompts were so incredibly thoughtful and really helped me take the involute journey to another level. It has also been fundamental in the healing journey I have been on in the last 6 months and something I will absolutely keep in my life.”
“I loved all of it to be honest, every part was learning and delving deeper into the workings of the body. It re-ignited my love for the human body is its intricate workings.”
“Becky created such a nurturing space where I felt completely held. The 1:1 check ins were incredibly valuable for me too.”
“I genuinely felt so held and supported and had absolute trust in Becky and the Involute container she created. I quickly learnt that everything was working out perfectly for me and to trust the process. I really valued the ‘container’ it felt like I knew and my body knew we were in a safe space to ‘go deep’ and really start to explore things that I haven’t before.”
“Becky – I do not have the words to fully express my gratitude to you for creating this course. It’s been absolutely wonderful and I am gutted that it has come to an end. You are such a wonderful teacher/guide – so humble, and kind, and you offer such a bright light to follow. You are a true example of living what you teach and an absolute inspiration.”
“I can recognise parts of self that were under-acknowledged and neglected. I am using knowledge of self, discovered on the ‘Involute’ journey to nurture the neglected parts and develop all of self.”
“Becky you are such a wonderful teacher! Thank you so very much from the bottom of my heart for sharing your wisdom.”
“Becky is such an incredible teacher, her wisdom and knowledge flows at a steady pace. I could listen to Becky’s voice all day!”
“I honestly feel that during the Involute process I have changed from a girl into a woman. I have begun healthy, pain free menstrual cycles for the first time without hormonal contraception. I have felt able to begin therapy and address trauma. I have a genuinely loving, kind relationship to my body, particularly to my reproductive system which less than 2 years ago was at the point of wanting to get a hysterectomy at age 28, now I feel like I’m learning to listen and respect and send love. I have had significant revelations about how I see myself, how strong I am and I feel like I have regained my health after so many years of not feeling myself. I have also started to have better boundaries in many different situations and take better care of myself. I have more trust in myself to look after myself. I now have better control over my pelvic floor and an understanding of how to ‘breathe with it’ and I have learnt how to release. I have the confidence to practice some intuitive movement/ yoga and do what I feel my body needs.”
