Fundamentals Yoga with Rhianna
Description
Charting asana, breath, vinyasa flow, alignments, meditation and philosophy. We spend time reping out asana and talking through the postural shapes, to build foundations for strength, flexibility, mobility and agility. This session is for everyone, whether complete beginner or revisiting aspects of your practice. It's also an open environment for questions, exploration and trying new things on the mat.

Grace of Vinyasa
Description
The beginning of the class will allow you to create a space for reconnection with your inner Self through opening meditation and pranayama (breath extension), which should remain as a part of your practice for the rest of the session. Towards the end, you can expect a grounding sequence in order to slow down the breath and reflect on your experience on the mat.
This session is truly for everyone, all genders, ages and abilities.
The slow and graceful pace of the class will help you to learn how to listen to your body and gain the strength, not just physically, but mentally in the first place.
Everyone in this class is usually encouraged to use the yoga props along with trying many adjustments which are always offered to take in order to explore our boundaries and find the edges.
This Yoga practice is about quieting the fluctuations of the mind and creating a relationship with our mind, rather than being constantly in a separation and uncontrollable fight inside. Through the conscious and mindful movements along with a breath, you will be guided to stay present and take most of the experience off the mat into your daily life.
Every session is a different experience.
NEW MOON GATHERING Waking Dream: A Guided Journey - A Quest to the Unseen
Heathcote & Star, 344 Grove Green Road
NEW MOON GATHERING Waking Dream: A Guided Journey - A Quest to the Unseen
Description
Come by with a candle, and sit around the candle lit camp fire, sip warm chai and listen.
Held in the mystery of mother darkness, this immersive guided journey invites you into a living tale —
a myth that unfolds both around and within you. Part story, part meditation, part ceremony, part
shamanic journey. It is a return to the sacred art of dreaming, where healing and insight arise not from instruction, but from deep listening and trust in your own experience and unseen forces that guide you.
This offering blends sacred storytelling with embodied practice. You’ll be gently guided to move,
gesture, let go, receive, perhaps dance, perhaps be still, perhaps something else. You don’t need to
prepare or have any experience in the above. Just bring your curiosity and a willing heart — and let
the story unravel.
This work is offered in service to wholeness, beauty and awe.
Occasionally, this work may stir deep waters within. The space is held with tenderness, but it is not a
therapeutic container. Your inner landscape is welcome here, but we ask that you come resourced
enough, able to meet what arises with gentleness and care.
This work is best met in complete darkness. If you have a blindfold, light scarf, or mindfold, please
bring it with you. Don’t worry if not, you can also do it with your eyes closed.
If you are restricted in movement, this work can be engaged with seated.

Tai Chi with Adrian Ling

Tai Chi with Adrian Ling
Description
What is tai chi ?
Perhaps the black and white pattern in a circle like 2 fishes chasing each other or yin and yang comes to one’s mind. …….
“ Si Liang Bo qian Jin “ is a Chinese saying : using 4 ounces strength to move a 1000 pounds weight. This saying is frequently heard in Tai Chi classes around the globe.
This concept is not about one’s size, or even if your opponent is stronger than you are. It is about using tai chi concepts in practical life application.
With this concept we are dealing with “live weight” or moving object, and by applying leverage. But using mind and intent and NOT force.
_
My name is Adrian Ling, I learned tai chi when I was young, from the old master back in Malaysia. I began to take tai chi more seriously for the last 5 to 6 years. And been teaching in community centres, libraries and among friends and families.
I like to introduce the basic tai chi and qi gong to our community, both for wellness and physical health .
We will be working towards learning forms. Eg. Yang style 8, 16, 24, 32 forms.
Or Chen style 18 forms.
These will come to light more when we are physically there. The forms are the building blocks of tai chi.
And tai chi can be translated as : The supreme ultimate.

Nidra & Sound | Gongs / Singing Bowls / Synths & Trance: A Collaboration - Basia / Bifmode / Frequency Diagnostics
Description
An evening of gently and slowly arriving into stillness to be immersed into a liminal space journey through guided Nidra and sound.
Collaborating on this series with Basia is musician, Dave Franklyn on synths, and Sound Healer, Alex Stevens on crystal bowls and gongs.
Dave and Alex bring their collection of instruments along with singing bowls, crystal bowls and gong to perform a traditional sound bath over a bed of sine wave frequencies designed to directly correlate with the meditative guidance from the voice of Basia and the sounds of the synth.
Yoga Nidra is also known as yogic sleep but is in fact a state of consciousness between waking and sleeping in which the body and mind are fully relaxed and which is conducive to emotional and physical healing. It works by following a guided relaxation and is an effective tool for deep rest and connection. Yoga Nidra can help to improve sleep, reduce stress and anxiety, help us to centre ourselves and find the truths hidden within our hearts.
This session is an explorative collaboration and will evolve over time.

Integral Wake Up
Heathcote & Star, 344 Grove Green Road, Green Grove Room
Integral Wake Up
Description
According to Sri Aurobindo, all life is Yoga, while Yoga as a sadhana (disciplined and dedicated practice or learning) is a methodised effort towards self-perfection, which brings to expression the latent, hidden potentialities of being. Success in this effort unifies the human individual with the universal and transcendental Existence. Integral yoga reunites "the infinite in the finite, the timeless in the temporal and the transcendent with the immanent.

Primal Movement Flow
Description
During this session we ask ourselves "what would I be like if I had never sat in a chair or been able to get my food from walking around a busy supermarket. What would my body feel like if I had to run, climb and move just to survive".
This session is a discovery session, with yoga as the key vehicle. Balance, strength in posture and finding new movement patterns.
Special Notes: Set around vinyasa, expect some workshop moments and non-yogic movements.
You may sweat.

Nād Yog (the Yoga of Sound) - Becoming “Kīrtan” with Kiran SKG
Heathcote & Star, 344 Grove Green Road, Green Grove Room
Nād Yog (the Yoga of Sound) - Becoming “Kīrtan” with Kiran SKG
Description
Containing breathing, meditations, mantra, voice activation, as well as essential physical practices as a means to activate and prepare the system for deeper experiences. Everything in this session works towards building a relationship with the subtle rhythms and melodies of life itself, helping to become our own Guru.
Based on Gurmat traditions, engaging and unifying the body, mind and energy, this is a participatory workshop, taking the act of listening from cerebral intellect to inner knowing in order to explore dimensions within, towards the goal of emotional and mental self-mastery.
Breath is highly important to yoga practices as it is the source of prana (vital energy) for the body and can be harnessed as the bridge to connect the mind and the body together. Sound yoga comes from the concept of “Ek Onkar” the primordial vibration AUM - a resonance which exists in all as manifested oneness. These sessions with Kiran help you to connect with omnipresence through voice, bansuri (bamboo flute), and dilruba (bowed sitar).

Yoga Under The Open Sky NATURE CONNECTION & VINYASA with Kelly Bewers & Tarin // HOLLOW PONDS / Pay as you wish / play as you wish
Description
Joining us to share a special morning practice is Yoga in the Stars member Kelly Bewers nature connection and movement facilitator.
We will start with a gentle full body warm up through yogic pathways then move into a deeper presence within self and nature with Kelly (We Are Earth).
We Are Earth offer nature connection experiences, rooted in the philosophy that movement is a primary way for emotions to be expressed, known, witness and released. Together we explore the wisdom of our bodies as part of the interconnected systems of the natural world, through sensory connection, dance, play and self-expression. Kelly creates and holds spaces that are joyful, healing and restorative. Her hope is that in the act of gathering, we re-animate ourselves and remember that we are earth.
A message from Kelly_
"We're called into the woods to gather with the trees, in the mystery, in the soft morning glow. Let's light our brightest fires, warm our hearts with the rising sun, celebrate the abundance of this season.
Come and move your body in delight, wonder, joy and playfulness. Practise gentle yoga in the morning sunlight, dance the rhythm of emergence and growth, then, slow down and feel how you might become even more vital, bolder, braver in this solar-powered season. A ritual in collective care. A ceremony to welcome summer. A celebration. Come and be loud. Come and be quiet. Come together."
