The final workshop this year. Finally we explore seated poses and that pesky hip tilt, the finishing sequence and twisting safely. Can’t wait to see you there.

As always I like to limit numbers so that you can have the best attention so please book ASAP to reserve a space. Contact me by email or phone.

Join me at The beautiful Blackfriars Priory in Gloucester to discuss how Buddhist wisdom and neuroscience can make sense of your current self. We will be using a combination of self study exercises, visualisations and yoga practice to cultivate a more compassionate you. It’s an opportunity to spend time working towards freedom from unhelpful internal chatter. The yoga practice will be based around the anahata chakra and will be a lovely flowing sequence aimed at opening your heart and directing energy to the centre of compassion in your energy centre. 

You must contact me to reserve a place with payment (full or partial).

oin Julia and Annet in carrying out 108 sun salutes to honor the sun and the vitality and energy it gives us and in marking this special time of year.

The summer solstice (or estival solstice) occurs when one of the Earth's poles has its maximum tilt toward the Sun. The summer solstice is when the Sun reaches its highest position in the sky and is the day with the longest period of daylight.

Since prehistory, the summer solstice has been seen as a significant time of year in many cultures, and has been marked by festivals and rituals. Today it is seen as the beginning of summer.

Its also international day of yoga on June 21st so while we might be a day or two early lets come together as a community of yogis to show our love of connecting our mind and bodies and finding balance through moving meditation. Its ace!

Note: you do not have to complete all 108 perfectly and you are more than welcome to come and watch, sit and breathe or do part of the 108.

ASHTANGA FULL PRIMARY

with Julia Frearson

Astanga is a beautiful form of yoga - a moving meditation. When the pure primary series is completed with a flowing breath count it creates a wonderful energy that connects everyone in the class together in their practice. It’s a dynamic practice but mindfully practiced it builds strength, endurance as well as flexibility.

Join Julia as she guides you through the full primary sequence in 2hrs. Some experience of yoga will help you in this session but experience of Astanga not required.

Astanga has a reputation for being difficult or challenging..something to aspire to or avoid. Truth is it’s a wonderful moving meditation suitable for all levels and modifications are available so you can tailor your own practice. Join Julia in a workshop exploring some of the fundamental principles of the movements, breath and underlying philosophy. You will develop more awareness of small actions and intentions that will enhance your practice in the Astanga series as well as opportunity to practice some of the ‘trickier’ asana. 

The benefits will generalise to your practice in any class and possibly your life in general! 

All levels welcome.
