Safe Backbends - Open Heart
 
Sunday 26th of June 2011

10am-12.30pm £25

Backbends are a wonderful way to create more space to breathe, energise the spine, broaden the chest...

We will start with a slow and gentle flow to warm up and get to know our body, understand safe alignment principles and then
explore a selection of backbends in different variations and modifications.

With a foundation of being grounded, aligned and moving with the breath our backbends are opening our chest and heart with grace, awareness and spaciousness.

Please RSVP by email, in class or by PAYPAL (online)

MAY -Vinyasa Flow Sun 15/05/11
Sunday Session 15th of May 10am - 12.30pm 2011

This 2 1/2 hour Vinyasa Flow Class will explore the physical, emotional and energetic relationship to the hips and pelvis through asana. Lighthearted, playful and with plenty of time to find alignment in the postures.

Movement and Posture, Pelvic Health, Expression and Creativity.

Hips and the pelvic girdle
Physical: Hips and the pelvis. Hip openers people either love or love to hate! The hip joint can literally rotate in all directions (nearly). Our movement has become restricted as the hip flexor is generally always in one position - sitting!

Improve your posture, your yoga asana... even your breath and the space in your pelvis and abdomen will improve.

The hip joints are part of the pelvis and attaching our legs to the torso. The pelvic girdle holds our reproductive organs (prostate, gonads, ovaries, womb etc), our excretory organs are here, and intestines and mothers carry their babies and birth through the pelvis.

Mental and emotional: Muladhara (root) and Swadistana (sacral) Chakra. The emotions relating to the first two chakras relate to our identity, survival, relationships and how we interact.

Symbolic and energetic: This is about boundaries, our sense of Self and our relationship to the seductive nature of sex, money, substances (food, drugs, alcohol) and even people. It is about survival, expression, creativity including our relationship to our sexual and sensual Self.

Spring Workshop Sun 17/04/11
Enjoy Flow, Breathe, Yoga... a two-and-half hour Spring yoga session celebrating the longer days, sun and the change from winter to summer.
 
We will move through a dynamic and flowing sequence of postures to stay grounded and stable as we start to let go of the dullness and darkness of winter. Twists will help to DETOX and encourage elimination of undigested food material as well as “bad” habits, thoughts and emotional baggage. As we let go we can surrender to the ‘now’ and just be still - in this part of the session symbolised through more restorative postures. In Hatha Yoga asana, postures, are the preparation for concentration and meditation so we will conclude with a meditative relaxation.
 
Feel prepared and supported to enter the summer by
detoxing, eliminating and rejuvenating through yoga.
 
This class is open for all levels but some yoga experience will be beneficial.

Saturday the 25th of September
A Firm Foundation - Alignment in your asana practise. In a normal class we rarely have the opportunity to break down a pose for complete understanding of the anatomy and the energetics of the asana. Here we remind or learn how to find our "perfect asana" (which may look very different to the person on the next mat!) and our alignment. This is for All levels and also for people who have previously done this workshop who may want to be reminded or have specific questions.

Saturday the 30th of October
Sacred Feminine - For yoginis (that is women - new or experienced to yoga) only... Reproductive health, pms, fertility issues, In tune with the the moon cycle. Yoga has so much to offer the female practitioner. Here we will go through a yoga class with specific attention to postures which support the female cycle. This is for anyone who wants to get in tune with their own cyclic flow of nature. And for those who may have specific issues regarding reproductive health, menstrual cycle, trying to become pregnant or just want to connect to their own Shakti Power!

Saturday the 27th of November
Journey through the Chakras - Chakra asana flow workshop. Throught the Flow of our asana practice we will explore and apply the qualities of the chakras. The energetics of our being affect us physically, emotionally, mentally and spiritually. Understanding more about them you can apply this knowledge to your own yoga practice, meditations, to yoga classes and in you dealing with daily life.
Beginners, experienced and yogi/nies who have previously joined the workshop are all welcome.

For further details please call, email or speak to me before or after class. Bookings can be made online or by cash or cheque at class.
