Quiet Tides grew from a deep listening -

to the body

to inner rhythms

and to the quieter movements

beneath everyday life.

It is a space shaped by slowness, attunement and presence.

I’m Pam, founder of Quiet Tides.

I’ve been teaching and exploring yoga for over two decades, alongside studying and practising Ayurveda, meditation, yoga nidra, breathwork, somatic awareness, and intuitive forms of inner inquiry.

My path into this work began in my early thirties during six months of solo travel in India, where I spent time living in an ashram. Something shifted there. I realised yoga was far more than physical postures — it was a path of listening, awareness, and remembering.

When I returned home, I followed what felt like a deep inner calling to train as a yoga teacher, and over the years I continued learning through many different trainings, retreats, and teachings around the world. Not from a place of collecting qualifications, but from a genuine devotion to understanding the human experience more deeply.

Alongside yoga, I also trained and practised in Ayurveda, where I qualified as both a Nutritionist and Practitioner. Through this work — including counselling-based approaches — I learned how to listen not only to the body, but also to the emotional, mental, and spiritual layers of being human.

Although my background includes many years of teaching physical yoga, my work gradually evolved. Particularly through my own experience of menopause and listening more honestly to my body, I found myself drawn towards slower, more inward and restorative ways of practising and working.

Today, my offerings are not movement-based.

Sessions are inward, relational, and experiential — guided more by presence than technique.

At the heart of my work is listening:
to the body,
to emotional patterns,
to the nervous system,
and to the subtle intelligence that often gets overlooked in the pace of everyday life.

I do not work with diagnosis or prescription.

Instead, I draw on Ayurvedic principles as a way of understanding the body’s inner landscape — noticing qualities such as heat, density, movement, and rest, and supporting balance, integration, and self-trust.

My work is also informed by cyclical and nature-based ways of understanding life, honouring rhythm, seasonality, presence, and our relationship with the living world around us.

Alongside all of this, I’m also simply a mum and an everyday person navigating the fullness and messiness of life. My own practice has never been about perfection. It has always been about returning — again and again — to what helps me feel connected, grounded, and alive.

Yoga nidra, in particular, has been a constant thread throughout my life and work. A place of deep rest, insight, and remembering.

The deeper I go into this work, the more it feels that this journey inward is never only personal. As we peel back the layers and remember who we are beneath conditioning and noise, we naturally begin to reconnect — with ourselves, with each other, with all living beings, and with the Earth herself.

This is subtle, deeply impactful work.

It unfolds slowly, through attention, safety, honesty, and presence.
