Yoga

Tuesday evening
Yin Yoga with myofascial Release & Yoga nidra

This class is influenced by my most recent trainings & continuing education.

Yin yoga, via the gentle application of tension & compression supports a healthy stimulation of the connective tissue and in particular encourages healthy structural shifts to the fascial matrix. It it is a practice to decompress the joints. We do this primarily by holding, for time, slow floor based postures and imperatively “rebounding” afterward. It is a functional practice and so the aesthetic of the shape is not of importance.

The utilisation of props is paramount here. Bolsters, blocks, straps and various shaped balls for myofascial release. The practice encourages you to drop into your own feeling space and relax into any discomfort that may arise whilst recognising and trusting your edge point. We journey through without force and by surrendering our attachment of the need to push further and achieve more.

The class is further complimented with an extended meditation or yoga nidra (a guided awareness practice).

Saturday morning
Vinyasa flow & Meditation

Each Saturday we flow together through our yoga practice. Moving energy, unwinding and unravelling. Challenging ideas of ourself and our balance, we approach the possibilities of our movement practice in a way that always refers back to the strength of respecting our own individual body and make up. Uniquely ourselves, honing and honouring our body awareness. We practice by the ethos that our bodies are marvellous and resilient . Through our movement and our meditation equilibrium can arise.

This class is suitable for those with some previous yoga experience or with a reasonable degree of fitness (sometimes applies)
