PRICE: £20
SATURDAY 21st AUGUST: 2-4.30PM

Yogaloft workshop @Home

Ashtanga Yoga is a method of transformation; an alchemical practice that raises awareness and presence, and expands consciousness using the physical body as a gateway to unlock its more subtle energetic realms.

In this workshop Nicola will take you on a magical journey that explores the shift between the physical, the energetic and the spiritual. You will experience using the body and asanas as a bridge towards a place of oneness.

Intelligent sequencing of asanas will allow us to incrementally and lovingly start to rebalance and realign the musculoskeletal system. This Yoga Chikitsa, which translates as ‘Yoga Therapy’, refers to balancing, cleansing and purifying on many levels.

Using ‘Yoga Asana’, ‘Breath’, ‘Bandha’ and ‘Dristhi’ we will start to move into physical, mental and emotional balance enabling us to start to experience ourselves as a vast ocean of consciousness; the immersive meditation of the practice.

This workshop is for everybody who is curious about this potent practice; complete beginners and more experienced practitioners of any style of yoga are all welcome.
