10am-12:30pm
We will start each day with a 2-2.5 HOUR ASANA PRACTICE – including PRANAYAMA (breathing techniques) and GUIDED MEDITATION. Each class is themed and sequenced to explore different elements of a balanced yoga practice. There will be ample time in each class to focus on KEY POSES, working with partners to understand the pose better and create a safe environment for our physical practice.  Day 1 starts with ‘Foundations and alignment' and other themes through the week will include hip and shoulder openers, inversions, core-strengtheners and backbends. 

12:30pm-3pm LUNCH 

3pm - 4:30pm (Course manual included)
Every afternoon we will explore Yoga in a wider context. We will cover the CORE ELEMENTS OF YOGA PHILOSOPHY, which have the power to inspire and transform our lives. The wisdom of Yoga can bring about profound changes in the way we view our life situation. TOPICS COVERED WILL INCLUDE THE FOLLOWING:

  • THE NATURE OF REALITY: What is ‘enlightenment’ or ‘awakening’?  Who am I? What is the meaning of life?
  • HISTORY OF YOGA: From ancient origins to the modern day. 
  • THE FOUR PATHS OF YOGA: Examined through the classic text, the Bhagavad Gita. 
  • THE CLASSICAL YOGA SYSTEM OF PATANJALI
  • THE ENERGY BODY: We will examine the subtle energy body and practice different breathing techniques to boost energy and create balance in the body.
  • YOGA / MEDITATION IN DAILY LIFE: We will discuss how to integrate these two practices in our daily lives. Basic meditation techniques will be practiced together.

4:30pm - 5:30pm
We will end every day a little differently. We will enjoy a guided relaxation through YOGA NIDRA. We will release deeper tensions through a gentle RESTORATIVE YOGA practice. We will practice PRANAYAMA to balance the energy in the body and calm the mind. GUIDED MEDITATIONS will help us to calm the mind and relax into our present moment to moment experience.
