Yoga That Meets You Where You Are
You’re not broken & you don’t need fixing. Feeling better is always possible.
If life feels harder than it should and you’ve tried everything else, you’re in the right place. Ya clever thing.
Welcome
Louise Yoga — South Kerry’s Yoga Therapist
I’m Louise Weinzweig, and I’m the only yoga therapist working in South Kerry. I offer one-to-one yoga therapy & private classes, an online yoga membership with live weekly classes, and in-person yoga in Ballinskelligs & Caherdaniel – plus the occasional retreat abroad for anyone who wants to go deeper.
How I work
I don’t believe your body is broken, I believe you are human. Flawed yet beautiful, like every other human being that ever lived. So much of what passes for “fitness” or “wellness” is really about fixing or forcing the body, often into a smaller size or different shape. I have no interest in that.
Instead, I teach from a solid grounding in neurology and functional movement, with humour and warmth. My approach is built around one idea: softness and strength aren’t opposites. You can be both. My job isn’t to fix you, it’s to help you build your own tools, so you leave a session or a class with more than the post-class bliss. You leave with a deeper understanding of your own body & mind, and an effective route to wellness for YOU.
Is this for you?
If you’re dealing with chronic pain, poor sleep, low energy, digestive trouble, or stress that won’t shift, and you’re tired of generic advice that doesn’t account for your individual nervous system – that’s exactly the kind of thing I work with. My students are mostly in their 40s to 60s, and what they tell me they want most isn’t to look a certain way, it’s to feel more confident in their own bodies again, to sleep better, have more energy, and to feel calm. They want to face their future with hope not with fear: of less mobility, more pain and more shouting at clouds.
How to work with me
One-to-one yoga therapy is working through your specific history, patterns, and goals together. The online membership (Thursday mornings, live plus recordings) is the best way to build a regular practice with me if you can’t get to South Kerry in person. And the Ballinskelligs Thursday evening classes and the Caherdaniel Friday morning classes, are for anyone local who wants a warm, unpretentious room to practise in alongside others just like you. I have some availability most weeks for private sessions. Whether you are visiting our beautiful Skellig Coast & want a class while you’re here, or run a business locally and want to treat your staff.
If any of that sounds like you, you’re in the right place. Book a class or say hello, I look forward to meeting you.
client feedback
“Louise takes us from the distractions of life to a place of calm, warmth, and appreciation, where we work together in a gentle but invigorating way. I always feel so much better after Louise’s structured and well-prepared classes. Louise makes me realize the benefit, and essential worth of Yoga for life. All with humour and understanding, giving mental and physical ease and well being”
– Maggie O’Shea
“I had fabulous time at Louise Yoga in Derrynane, followed by sauna. I went by myself as I love my own me time, I really connected with the peace and tranquility of sea and the surrounding sound. Louise made me very comfortable, she is a fantastic person. I felt so much at ease and peaceful and relaxed afterwards”
