Past Workshops
Seasonal Yoga Vinyasa; Imbolc in the Woods
Sunday 23rd Feb 2020 (Lunar Imbolc) 10.30 – 4.30pm £55 (£45 conc) (including shared pot luck lunch)
Soothe your senses and let Nature heal your Spirit. Two woodland retreats in a cosy rustic yurt, maximum 8. No electricity, no noise of traffic, just a wood burner and candle light, bathed in the sounds of forest creatures and the elements…Imbolc is an ancient earth festival spanning the centuries from pre Celtic times, rooted in the seasonal cycles of sun and moon. Relating to the lambing season, the first snowdrops and the rising sap, it is a natural time to celebrate renewal; the close of Winter, the first hints of Spring. Spring Cleaning doesn’t just apply to our homes…It is a time to Spring Clean our minds and our hearts, to allow inspiration to enter for the new cycle! Weaving yoga, meditation & intention, we co create a ritual to acknowledge our belonging in these earthly rhythms, and align with the energies that sustain us despite our constant forgetting.

‘Contact Yoga/partners yoga workshop’ 10.30am – 2pm Sunday 16th September 2018 £35 including refreshments
Hatha Yoga is a conversation between body, energy, breath, and gravity…
In contact yoga/partners yoga, another being comes into the conversation, requiring enhanced listening, sensitivity and trust.
We find increased challenge with balance, when to push, when to yield, and poses are experienced in fresh perspective.
There is the energetic motivation to move beyond our habitual limits, the mutual grounding/support providing the possibility of deeper release….and while there is a playfulness in connection and exploration, there is also a greater depth in meditation and breath work.
