Vicki Garlick is the founder of Soul Journey Holistic Yoga, offering gentle, philosophy-led yoga classes, workshops, retreats, and women’s wellbeing gatherings in Northamptonshire, UK. Her teaching weaves together Hatha, Yin, breathwork, meditation, and yoga philosophy in a way that is accessible, trauma-informed, and deeply rooted in everyday life.
Alongside her classes, Vicki is passionate about supporting women’s wellbeing through all stages of life, from menarche through to post-menopause. She holds weekly not-for-profit community groups and promotes yoga not as something we practice on the mat, but as a way of living with greater compassion, awareness, and connection.
Why I Want to Support YGB: “Yoga has shaped every part of my life, not only physically, but in how I relate to myself, my family, my community, and the world around me. Supporting Yoga Gives Back feels like a meaningful way to honour the roots of this practice and give something back to India, where yoga originated.
I am especially passionate about the wellbeing of women and girls, and the importance of access to education, support, dignity, and opportunity throughout all stages of life. Through my own work in women’s wellbeing and community spaces, I see how transformative compassionate support can be.
Becoming part of YGB feels like a natural extension of the values that already sit at the heart of my teaching and practice.
