More info on the classes I’ll be teaching @marpo More info on the classes I’ll be teaching @marpoleretreats starting TOMORROW!👇 While they all differ in pace and intention, they all interweave my teaching foundation of movement, mindfulness and mindset. 🧘 Thursdays 7:30-8:30pm - Yin and Yang Here we’ll be starting off in a supported and restful posture to connect with our bodies and breath, before moving slowly and intentionally. We’ll then wind back down into seated poses with all the props to support us, long holds to calm our bodies and steady breath to centre our minds. This class will be suitable for all levels, including beginners. My aim is for everyone in class to access a deeply nourishing practice, so don’t worry about how inflexible/stressed/whatever else you may be feeling lately. This class is for you to reconnect to your mind and body with curiosity and compassion, and feel a lot better in the process! 🧘 Mondays Vinyasa 2:45-3:30pm In this class we will move, linking breath to movement, exploring postures and the spaces/transitions in between. My flow classes help you feel more expansive, simultaneously filling your cup and showing you that you are capable of more than you think. 🧘 Mondays Deep Stretch and Relaxation (3:45-4:45pm) Blending gentle movement, long Yin-inspired stretches and deep relaxation, these classes will invite more flexibility into your body and serious levels of calm in your mind. Slower paced classes are just as much for your mind as they are for your body; giving you space to process whatever is going on for you in your life while also allowing your body to melt into relaxation. You can book over at @marpoleretreats website or download their app to book ❤️ #yogaedinburgh

10 years ago I taught my first yoga class (exactly 10 years ago I taught my first yoga class (exactly a decade ago yesterday). It was at Easter Bush, where I’d been working as a scientist for 5 years. My path was unclear, but all I knew was that yoga was coming into to my life at the same rate that my curiosity for science was going out. I was nervous, excited, feeling like this whole new world of limitless possibilities was open to me. And I’ve done so much in 10 years - teaching groups, privates, workshops, courses, events, hen do’s, hired studios, taught for studios, owned a studio, managed a team, returned to solopreneurship. I still get excited, sometimes still nervous, just before every single class I teach. Those same feelings as the very beginning, perhaps more muted but still so in love with this work. The longer I’ve spent on this planet, the more I care about mental wellness, resilience, self-inquiry, being resourced and regulated. These concepts can take so many forms, and I weave them into every class I teach. I feel so lucky to share the tradition of yoga with so many incredible people. I am so grateful for the possibly-1000s of people who have attended my classes. So thankful also for my online community, whether that’s blog, YouTube or here on social media. I may be quieter online just now, but I’m still teaching away ☺️ I finally realised that I can only do so much, so I’m prioritising parenting and teaching in this season. Whether you’ve been here for 10 years or 10 minutes, 100 classes or in your future plans, I’m grateful for you being part of this community. I am so glad you’re here. #yogateaching #edinburghyoga #edinburghyogacommunity

I started a Substack recently - I love writing lon I started a Substack recently - I love writing longer form content and it’s such a lovely community over there ❤️ I wrote a piece on how to reframe goal setting in a way that suits you. In this nonstop merry-go-round season of my life (early motherhood) I know I do not have the stability to set big goals for myself. It’s taken a couple of years but I’ve figured out a way to make step changes work in a realistic way. I know a lot of my clients can have crazy lives too. I mainly work with busy professionals, entrepreneurs, and primary/mental-load-carrying parents with a jam-packed schedule who can at times struggle to accommodate life’s’ curveballs. And if you fit in one (or more) of those groups, aka most of us in this busy busy era, head over to my bio link to get some insights into improving your life for more than 3 days! https://iamtaliallen.substack.com
2025 and in my happy place ✌️ Christmas was a 2025 and in my happy place ✌️ Christmas was a blissful 2 weeks of cosy family vibes, very needed after a chaotic autumn. Stepping back into teaching this week with a full cup 💜
Hi I’m Tali 💜 I live in Edinburgh, Scotland, Hi I’m Tali 💜 I live in Edinburgh, Scotland, with my amazing partner Mike and our beautiful 2 year old girl Reileen. Alone time is my love language just now (5/2 Projector 🙋🏼‍♀️ ) and I love having my own space to think and create. I discovered yoga well over a decade ago when I committed to my mental recovery and I don’t think there’s a single aspect in my life that didn’t uplevel as a result 🙃 For the past 9 years I’ve been teaching yoga-informed movement, mindset and mindfulness practices to help 100s of people experience the same transformation and healing ❤️ I’m most passionate about the impact that yoga and mindset work can have on our mental wellbeing and relationships with self. Happiness is an inside job 🧘 I don’t live in the shallows. Skip the small talk and show me your authentic self pleeease✌️
Summer loving ☀️ ⛰️ being outside all da Summer loving ☀️ ⛰️ being outside all day most days 🎂 celebrating 2 years of Rei 💒 family, weddings, road trips 🐱 losing Seren, adjusting to no cat life 💔 🧘‍♀️ teaching yoga to so many incredible people, both new and long term clients 💗 no more naptime, regaining evenings with Mike 👯 playdates, birthday parties, toddler besties 🏖️ hills, beach, town and a lot of ducks ❤️ really feeling like my new old self again Can you stick around a few more months pls? ✨
Just living my dream life 🫶 I love the Pentlan Just living my dream life 🫶 I love the Pentlands. It’s where I go whenever I need to do some soul searching. Good news, bad news, sadness, joy, these hills have always held me when I’ve needed to figure shit out. And these past few weeks I’ve finally made it back up there - several times 🫶 I remember one of the cards we got from one of my partner’s friends when Rei was born. Or rather, I remember the sentiment behind it (newborn brain, I don’t remember much from that time 😬) - how parenthood is not about giving up your previous adventures but rather getting to take someone else along for the ride. I really feel like we’ve been living that for the past couple of months. It feels so great to be going out all day so often, flying down to Birmingham for weekends, doing yoga together (ok this is admittedly a work in progress ha), baking cakes and watching you chase sheep on the hills 🐑 For anyone in the thick of an intense chapter of life - this is a message that everything is seasonal, that things will get better ❤️
Life lately + coming home to me. Let’s just sa Life lately + coming home to me. Let’s just say this was not my first losing-self rodeo, but it’s been a hell of a challenge nonetheless. My theme for 2024 was IDENTITY because I felt so lost and something had to change. I actually wrote a blog post series about goals, resolutions and my identity theme a while back, I’ll share the links in my stories if you want a read (or just head over to my bio link for my blog). ALSO newsletter coming out tomorrow all about ego deaths (RIP) and all things identity. IT’S A GOOD UN. Head over to taliallen.com to get on my mailing list. It’s been a trip, there’s still shifts going on, but I feel more much like my (new/old?!) self than in a looooong time 😌 1. Our daily walk, ft all the daisies 2. Back in interior creativity mode again 🩵 3. These two 🥹 3. These two pt 2 4. Bolster wars 5. We need 10hrs outside time a day thx 6. 15 years, still in love 7. Sunglass thief 8.
