About Sea Salt Soul Yoga | Yoga in Westport, Mayo

- Small-group vinyasa flow yoga classes inspired by the Atlantic coast

welcome to Salt Sea Soul Yoga

Welcome to Sea Salt Soul Yoga, a space to move, breathe, and reconnect — inspired by the wild Atlantic coast of Westport, Co. Mayo.

I’m Susan Walsh — a lifelong yoga practitioner, qualified yoga teacher, lawyer, and mum of three. After a decade living by the beaches of Bondi, I returned home to the west of Ireland, where the sea, the seasons, and the slower rhythm of life have shaped my practice in new ways.

Sea Salt Soul Yoga is rooted in presence, steadiness, and respect for where you are — on and off the mat.

my teaching style

My teaching is grounded, intelligently sequenced, and led by the breath. I teach Progressive Vinyasa Flow to build strength, stability, and freedom of movement, alongside Yin and Restorative Yoga to support deep rest and nervous system regulation.

Classes are:

• Strengthening without being forceful

• Accessible, with options always offered

• Focused on sensation, awareness, and breath

This is yoga that supports real life — not performance or perfection.I’m Susan Walsh, a lifelong yoga practitioner, yoga teacher, lawyer, and mum of three.

I teach with care, integrity, and respect for individual bodies and experiences.

my journey with yoga

Yoga has been part of my life for over 20 years, supporting me through motherhood, career changes, periods of burnout, and anxiety. It has been both a physical practice and a way of learning how to stay present with myself through different seasons of life.

These lived experiences deeply inform how I teach. I understand the need for practices that are supportive, adaptable, and grounded — especially for people navigating stress, overwhelm, or change.

yoga classes in westport, co mayo

At Sea Salt Soul Yoga, classes are inspired by nature — the tides, the light, and the rhythm of the breath. I offer small-group yoga classes in Westport, Co. Mayo, as well as private 1:1 sessions.

Smaller class sizes allow for personal attention, a calm atmosphere, and space to practice safely and confidently.

Whether you join me for a strong vinyasa flow, a beginner-friendly class, or a slower, restorative practice on a rainy Atlantic evening, my hope is that you leave feeling grounded, lighter, and more connected to yourself.
