Let me start by saying I have Lupus. It does not define me, but it does limit my physical activity at times. Not all yoga instructors meet me where I am. And it’s different on any given day. Alicia has a rare ability to meet me exactly where I am. Whether I arrive feeling strong and energized or depleted and overwhelmed, she intuitively guides me in a way that feels both supportive and empowering. Her cues are clear, her sequencing is thoughtful, and her presence is calm without ever being passive. She holds space with strength and kindness. What I especially appreciate is how Alicia weaves breath, mindfulness, and subtle emotional awareness into the practice. It’s never performative. It’s authentic. I leave not just stretched, but steadied. Not just stronger, but more connected to my body. Being a yoga novice, I sometimes say to myself, Alicia, you want me to do what now? But she gently helps me work into whatever position that works in my case, even while all around me look like human pretzels and I’m a bit intimidated! She creates a community in the room without forcing it. There is warmth, but also respect. Depth, but also lightness. You can tell she lives what she teaches. If you have the opportunity to take a class with Alicia Ray, do. Your body will thank you. And so will your nervous system. And those people who have to deal with you when you are not feeling your best. My husband, Scott, who also takes classes with Alicia, told me to add that last part!

Alicia’s yoga is amazing. It is so calming and relaxing but at the same time giving your body the movement and stretches it needs. Alicia is so kind to have also offered a free month of yoga to her Ayurveda mates. Thank you again.

Alicia’s yoga class at Horizon in Costa Rica was wonderful! I loved the way she blended the movement and flow with the natural beauty of the surroundings. It was a truly memorable experience with a great teacher in a stunning setting

Alicia's class was the best yoga class I've ever had. Highly recommend joining some if you can. 👌

I had the great pleasure of meeting Alicia at the Om Yoga show and decided to buy a new matt. The matt has been brilliant as the surface offers just the level of grip I require. The clean surface rather than using a towel allows great points of contact leading to better stability and greater confidence. I would have no hesitation in recommending these matts. Also you get to deal with a very lovely genuine yoga enthusiast which just adds to the enjoyment of using the matt. Thanks so much.

Alicia Ray Yoga was incredible. She came to Gylly Beach in Falmouth to run a Silent Disco Yoga session for my society, Falmouth Yoga, and our new students from the Universities of Exeter and Falmouth. She created a calm, welcoming atmosphere, and her teaching made everyone feel comfortable. It was a beautiful experience and our students loved it.

Absolutely love Alicia’s classes. I don’t live close so I am really grateful I can still benefit from Alicia’s yoga classes with her professional online class. I always come away feeling positive, stronger and with more clarity. The class always feels like the right level of ability and effort for me. I would highly recommend.

For the last 2 years, Alicia has delivered inspiring careers talks to Psychology A-Level students, at Truro College, about her work as a Clinical Psychologist and holistic work with people through yoga and breathwork. Each year Alicia inspires students to pursue a career in supporting mental wellbeing and helps those planning on pursuing a career as a Clinical Psychologist to know the process and how important it is to gain experience of working with vulnerable people to ensure that their post-graduate applications are successful. This year's talk had 50 students turn up late and walk right into the room whilst Alicia was part way through a breathwork exercise, Alicia took this significant disruption in her stride, demonstrating her true professionalism and calm demeanour. We look forward to Alicia returning to talk to our students next year to enthuse and inspire the future counsellors and psychologists of Cornwall.

At the National Maritime Museum Cornwall, we wanted to create a fresh and unforgettable experience that tied into SURF!, our ground-breaking major temporary exhibition. We had the idea of transforming the museum into an evening venue for a silent yoga disco. We approached Alicia and Rich with the idea, and they absolutely brought it to life! They designed a breathtaking ‘Deep Blue’ ocean-inspired yoga session that perfectly complemented our SURF! exhibition and harmonized beautifully with the space and our collections. Throughout the project, their professionalism and passion shone through. We felt fully supported every step of the way — their attention to detail and care ensured the entire event ran seamlessly. The result was a brilliant, one-of-a-kind experience that hit our brief perfectly and received unanimously glowing feedback from participants. We’re absolutely thrilled with the outcome and can’t wait to collaborate with them again in the future.

I’ve attended classes and retreats with Alicia for over 8 years now and have loved every one of them whether that’s on the beach, silent disco yoga or morning rise yoga from my own home which I did all of last winter. I’ve not practised yoga consistently (having two kids and cancer in the last 5 years) but I’ve always felt comfortable and confident rejoining Alicia on the mat again. Her classes are so calming and the right amount of challenge too. I bought one of her mats a couple of years ago too - I love the design and sustainable material and smile every time I roll it out. I also love how robust they are for taking to the beach - they don’t blow around in the wind, sand brushes off easily and they even work well on a pebbly beach (as pictured) where they don’t get damaged and you are protected from any pointy pebbles! The carry strap is pretty handy too! I’ve had several mats but this one is hands down the best and despite being used a lot still looks brand new!
