Join Alison for this 4 week course which will run on Wednesday evenings starting 13 June and ending 4 July. If you can't make the entire course it may be possible to drop in for individual sessions 

Alison teaches to build strength from the inside out by sequencing movements using deep core line anatomy, physics and flow, to link together more traditional yoga poses.

Inspiring to dream big rather than trying to achieve perfection.

Booking is essential for the course or drop in. 

£30 for 4 sessions or £8.50 for individual session

'Yin' ...Spirations
An evening of Yin Yoga and Yoga Nidra with Julie Robinson
Yin is a practice of movement toward stillness which by its very nature encourages reflection and self enquiry.  Using inspiring readings and quiet pauses from the 'doing' we will explore simply 'being'.

This restful and quiet evening practice will be an antidote to the busy business of everyday living and will be followed by a yoga nidra (deep relaxation).
Grab the bolsters and blankets and settle in.

All are welcome

 

When we order a Sundae we get a tasty and interesting mixture of things. Join Julie for this fun Sunday afternoon session to dip into a little bit of this and a little bit of that.

Enjoy everything wonderful about the season of summer. Work with practices to evoke feelings of lightness and brightness in the body. Soften into shapes in a leisurely Sunday way and bask in explorations of savasana as a soothing pose of reflection and restoration.

All are welcome.

Drinks and strawberries and cream included. 

 

Join Carolyn for a day or two or enjoy the whole week.

A week to explore body, mind and breath in the company of others in the very peaceful setting of Babworth Court.

To engage with our physical practice bringing strength, length and freedom to the ever changing body. Moving through asana with a staged approach that can bring interest and progression to all who attend.

To consider breath and pranayama practices for assisting release and renewal of energy levels. Giving time to strengthen the muscles that bring about breathing and awareness of natural breathing and what that means in life.

To explore Mudra and Bandha within practice as a way of directing energy and mind. This will add interest and depth to the programme.

To experience Yoga Nidra as an integral part of practice and recognise the deep releasing benefits this relaxation brings.

To contemplate the pleasure of action and the connectivity to life and health.

Carolyn will add the fascination of the philosophy from ancient roots to underpin modern day interpretation of how we can use Yoga in our everyday Life.

Yoga and Ayurveda

Yoga and Ayurveda nourish each other, they are sister sciences. The workshop will use Ayurveda Yoga Therapy Vinyasas (asana sequences), pranayama and Yoga Nidra to balance the three doshas of Vata, Pitta and Kapha. It will be informed by the teaching of Mukunda Stiles and will explore how yoga practice has the potential to bring about lasting change in health, lifestyle and outlook on life.

In the afternoon, we will consider routines and dietary changes from an Ayurvedic viewpoint that support a healthy gut and digestive system. Recent scientific research is showing the importance of healthy gut microbiome for well-being which has been a central understanding from Ayurveda since ancient times allbeit expressed in different terms.

Jayadhara (Jane Cluley) began practising yoga at university, trained as a yoga teacher with British Wheel of Yoga (BWY) and has been teaching since 1988, she is a BWY Foundation and BWYQ Diploma Course tutor. After living and studying at Bihar School of Yoga in India for several years she gained an MA in yoga philosophy. She has a particular interest in making ancient philosophy accessible to everyone, yoga for mental health and in the benefits of adopting Ayurvedic routines and diet.

This will be a very uplifting and informative day of yoga with a tutor who has a wealth of knowledge, believes in sharing from her own experience and has a talent for expressing her teaching clearly and enjoyably.
