You keep saying you need a day just for you.
But somehow it never happens. The diary fills up, the to-do list grows, and another week passes where you put everyone else first.
You're not burnt out. You're not broken. You're just running on empty and you know it.
What if one Sunday could genuinely change the way you feel in your body and send you home feeling more like yourself again?
What this day is
A day retreat that feels like a holiday.
Fields & Flow is a full day in the beautiful Shropshire countryside, surrounded by open fields, farm-fresh food, and a small group of like-minded women.
No notifications.
No school runs.
No one needing anything from you.
Just movement, laughter, food, fresh air and a bit of quiet.
I wanted to create a day that I would actually love to be part of.
So that's exactly what this is.
Your day, hour by hour.

"Cara's Pilates classes are so well structured, she always shows progressions so whether you're just starting out or want to push yourself further, there's something for you.
I never feel out of my depth, but I always feel like I've worked."

"What I love is that I actually take things away with me. The stretches and moves Cara teaches are ones I find myself using at home through the week, it's not just an hour in a class, it sticks with you."

"
"I was really nervous about doing Pilates in a class, worried I'd get it wrong and look silly.
Cara makes the whole thing so relaxed and approachable that those nerves just disappear.
I've already recommended her to my friends."

A day that is entirely yours
I'm Cara — Life Coach, Accredited Nutritionist, and Pilates teacher based in Wem, Shropshire.
I teach Pilates at Sattvic Studio in Market Drayton, and I run Coaching with Cara helping women heal their relationship with food and their bodies.
My classes are free from diet culture and comparison. Just movement that feels good, properly adapted for every body in the room.
I created this retreat because it's the kind of day I'd want for myself. Good movement, real food, open fields, a bit of laughter, and the space to just be.
I can't wait to share it with you.
