Nix Barnaville yoga

Welcome to PhoeNix Wellbeing ! 


I am Nix Barnaville and I am passionate about connecting people to their bodies, nature and each other.

My background in is in  theatre & circus which led me into the field of creative wellbeing.

Several years ago, I rediscovered my love of the outdoors – especially the thrill of plunging into cold water. That joy sparked a cold water obsession and ultimately led to the creation of Court Farm Lakes, an open water swimming and wellbeing venue.

I see myself as a guide rather than a teacher; offering gentle cues & playful invitations to explore movement and connection with your body.

My sessions are shaped by my creative background and focus on building a positive, joyful relationship with movement.

I have over 20 years experience in working with my body, developing a broad knowledge of anatomy and neuro science. I have further developed my skills by training with some of the best instructors world wide.
Classes include Aerial and Mat Yoga, movement & breathwork

I recently trained in Aufguss sauna performance and now offer regular immersive sauna sessions.


 The Phoenix represents Renewal and Revival - giving new energy and life - and  Restoration- to bring us back to ourselves.
Inclusivity, authenticity and community are at the heart of everything I offer,
I welcome you to join me to -
Renew, Restore , Revive and Re-connect  your mind , body and soul .

Regular Offerings 

Aerial yoga 

My background is in Circus and physical theatre , for me the combination of the aerial arts and yoga is the perfect balance .

Aerial yoga combines traditional asana (the physical postures of yoga) and yoga philosophies with the aerial arts using an aerial hammock.

You can be fully supported by the hammock — wrapping  around particular body parts, keeping other parts on the floor.

Hanging fully or suspending individual body parts is believed to create traction and open your body more gently and intuitively than when you’re on the floor. 

Gentle flow is suitable for all who are new to a yoga and aerial yoga practice, a more yoga focussed class with some beginner level aerial yoga poses.

General class  is for those who are confident in the air and have practiced yoga regularly, we will explore some flips&tricks 

Restorative is suitable for all and is inspired by Yin Yoga practices to bring ease into the body and mind 

Mat based Yoga 

My yoga style draws on my creative practice and can be a  playful exploration of the body and mind .  I take inspiration from many yoga styles including  Iyengar, Yin and Ashtanga , I also weave in somantics and movement to facilitate  you into a positive relationship with your own body.

I have a passion for  movement and neuroscience and enjoy keeping up to date with the latest research and practices.

My classes are open to all who wish to explore their bodies , I offer adaptations and props to help support you on your yoga journey.

Classes include focussed breathwork, exploration of key traditional yoga poses and meditation.
