Join us for a Yoga workshop to 'Open your Heart to all that is around you’ on and off the mat.

This workshop revolves around the infinite space within the centre of the heart. Through opening the front gate of the body and delving into backbends, we will explore the relationship of love, kindness and compassion, not only for others, but also for oneself. We invoke ‘Bhakti Yoga’, introducing devotion, joy, surrender and serenity, to be able to give & receive love and to connect to one's soul's purpose, to become truly centered in the heart. Our focus will lead to an affirmation of ‘I am pure love / I give and receive an abundance of Love’.

An energising asana practice to aid with opening the chest, upper back/shoulders and relieving tension in the spine and improving breath control & posture. From a psychological level we boost confidence & low self-esteem and helps to relieve anxiety and stress… an ideal antidote for modern living or the ‘office’ mind and body! Winter is nature’s season for going within, developing deep inner peace & stillness is the best motivation for beginning or deepening a regular practice of yoga and group energy catalyses this process.

- Receive health benefits of mudras (hand gestures)
