“Yoga does not transform the way we see things; it transforms the person that sees.”
B.K.S. Iyengar

🌿 Francesca Deith | Women’s Space Holder, Yoga Teacher & Keeper of Oaklands

I’m Francesca — a women’s space holder, yoga teacher and guide rooted in ceremony, movement and nature connection.

After many years teaching yoga, hosting retreats and sharing what I love in Surrey, I followed the call of the land and moved to Dorset with my partner David in 2022. We’ve since co-created Oaklands — our home and a sacred sanctuary near the sea, where I now host seasonal retreats, day gatherings and soulful circles for women.

My offerings bring together everything I’ve gathered over the years — from goddess and seasonal wisdom to cacao, sound, journalling and movement — shared in my unique style, from the heart. This is my passion and my purpose.

At Oaklands, I hold space for:

• Retreats & Day Retreats aligned with the Wheel of the Year

• Women’s Circles, Full Moon Ceremonies & Cacao Ritual

• Yoga, Movement & Nurture Nights

• Private Retreats (for up to 8 women) and Airbnb Stays (sleeps 4)

I’ve also created a gentle WhatsApp community where you can stay connected to my offerings — choose which updates resonate, from retreats to Tropic skincare shares, and join the journey. 

I’ve recently created a WhatsApp community where you can stay gently connected with future offerings — from retreats and events to Tropic skincare and moon ceremonies. You can join any (or all) groups that resonate with you.

This is my soul work.

This is what I was put on Earth to do.

And I’d love to welcome you into the circle.

Francesca ❤️
