This class will be focusing on balancing our Shiv Shakti energies using the nurturing power of the Full Moon due on Tuesday. We will be tuning into ourselves intuitively to let go of all that no longer serves us and create a new balance to move forward. We will be using the power of pranayama, chanting and meditation to help dissolve the ego and bring us peace. If you have your mala (beads) bring them along too!

A hybrid class of yoga therapy, shamanic breathwork and meditation. This will leave you feeling physically and mentally open, clear and balanced. You'll be energised and relaxed all at once.

A time to nourish your mind and body with the soft vibration and sounds of sound bowls and yoga.

Vibrational balancing using the sound of joined voices.

Yin yoga is an ancient and mindful practice, coming into poses and learning the art of surrender. You will be guided into shapes for your body to hold sequenced to target lines of meridians or points within the body. Each pose is held for 1-5 minutes to allow the deeper connective tissues and fascia to stretch. Yin yoga is best for balancing a busy Yang lifestyle, come and enjoy the benefits of this practice.

Using Emotional Freedom Techniques (EFT/Tapping) to create a calmer life During this workshop we will be: • Exploring the impact of energy blockages and traumatic experiences on our body • How EFT can help to restore energetic and emotional balance. • Practicing basic EFT techniques that you can apply in everyday life

We will start the class with a breathing exercise to bring us back to the present moment, then some kind warm-up on the floor. After that, we continue warming-up standing and we continue with the standing sequence. Following this, we will do some twistings, then a sitting sequence and we will finish the sequence with some inversions. At the end of the class, we will have a kindness meditation after Savasana. I would love to play some nice music to help with the flow If is that possible.

A simple class to get your energy moving - as you enter into the last afternoon of the festival this class will lift your energy levels and then round out with the relaxing vibrations of the gong to to float you through the rest of your day.

Get curious and connect with your breath during a well-rounded breathwork session. The class will be a blend of traditional pranayama and functional breathing techniques. We will start with subtle movements to open and energise your body, followed by seated and supine breathing exercises before finishing with the sounds of a handmade medicine drum as we create a state of bliss for ourselves. Leave feeling empowered with a greater understanding of how you can use your breath as a centring tool in your everyday. No experience is necessary for this session.

Qi is the Chinese word for the ‘life’ or ‘vital energy’ that flows through everything. Gong means “work” or “skill” or benefits acquired through perseverance and practice. Together the two words mean ‘Skill or mastery of working with vital energy’ – this is the cultivating and accumulating of an abundant energy flow through practice. Through study, the individual aims to develop the ability to manipulate Qi in order to promote self-healing, prevent disease, and increase longevity. I like to call it medication in motion.

A Vinyasa sequence that incorporates mobility exercises to increase your range of motion, release tension and prevent injuries. While mobility is related to flexibility, they're actually interdependent concepts that usually work together to improve your agility.

Truly feel and let go.
