"I don't live near River Flow Yoga to be able to take part in Grahams amazing classes, but due to covid-19 he is teaching online and I am now able to join. Graham teaches in such a nurturing way and always has a sprinkling of his humour as an added extra 😄 I am so grateful for the opportunity to be able to take part in these classes and hope they continue once things return to normality."

"I feel totally refreshed and restored after last weekend's River Flow Yoga retreat. Thank you to Graham & Matthew, their doggies and welcoming neighbours for the nourishing yoga and delish food, for encouraging me to slow down and allowing me to enjoy nature, setting me up for 2019 in style. I'll be back again soon xx"

"Just returned from a wonderfully holistic weekend yoga retreat. Graham is an exceptional teacher who thoughtfully provided twice daily sessions. I was nervous as I had not done any regular classes for a while, but left feeling inspired and rejuvenated. Graham and his partner Matthew made us feel so welcome in their delightful converted chapel come art gallery. The food was all home cooked and locally sourced and we ate delicious curries and cakes this weekend, and there is an air of abundance and generosity in all they provide. There is a lovely river nearby for swimming and canoeing is available. We were taken out to the countryside accompanied by their delightful dogs Ribbon and Phoenix. I loved it and will return."

“I so enjoyed the River Flow yoga retreat. I was nervous about the swimming but it was a really supportive environment, led by Rob. I felt a great sense of achievement after the swims! Graham's yoga classes were fun, serene and empowering. The wonderful homemade food provided by Matthew was delicious and plentiful. What a warm, welcoming place the chapel on the green provides. I can't recommend it enough!”

“I would be delighted to give a review of my experience retreating at The Chapel on the Green as I had such a beautiful, memorable experience.
Let's set the scene - the Chapel is situated in the stunning village of Glasbury, right on the River Wye, where our first swim, and our night swim, took place. I was made to feel at home right away. Graham and Matthew were the perfect hosts for such a wonderful weekend and made us all feel like a little family, finding our way through this adventure together.
I thoroughly enjoyed the yoga practices, and Graham's way of teaching meant that there was absolutely no judgement which really helped me to calm down, reflect, and remember the true intention of the practice rather than fretting over perfection. I was able to be really introspective over the four classes, especially from the addition of poetry which I thought was a really nice touch.
As for the wild swimming , Emilie and Rob were excellent coaches and encouraged us to swim within our abilities and to do whatever felt most comfortable for us. The most memorable moment for me was doing the night swim on the River Wye, after having the most delicious home-cooked meal. The sky was totally clear, and we could see all the stars overhead which was so serendipitous - I felt so lucky to be there at that moment and I'll never forget it.
On the last day, we went on a meditative walk in some of the most beautiful scenery in Wales. We made complete use of all our senses, feeling the crisp grass underfoot, hearing the gentle breeze whistle past us, as well as tucking into tea and cake once we reached our destination.
And wow, I can't round this off without talking about the food. How gorgeous. All I can say is try it for yourself and you'll never want to go home.
Thank you for kindness and hospitality; welcoming us into your beautiful Chapel. I'll be sure to visit again for another weekend of joy and abundance.”

"The whole experience was excellent from start to finish. Well organised and all my needs were met. There was an abundance of delicious freshly made dishes throughout the day. I’ve joined many retreats in the UK and this trumps them all. Great value for money - plenty of activities and a well thought out schedule! I’ll definitely be indulging in another retreat with these guys again. We had an array of yoga classes throughout the days from Nidra - Vinyasa! Wonderful!"
