Jivamukti Yoga is a path to enlightenment through compassion for all beings. The Jivamukti method is grounded in the original meaning of the Sanskrit word asana as “seat or connection” or relationship to the Earth. Earth in this sense implies all of life. Citing Patanjali’s Yoga Sutra, which states that asana should be sthira and sukham, Jivamukti Yoga maintains that one’s relationship to others (asana) should be mutually beneficial and come from a consistent (sthira) place of joy and happiness (sukham).

This workshop will offer a dynamic and vigorous yoga asana with meditation, yoga philosophy, compassionate living, and great music! It will integrate all the components of classical yoga in a challenging, fun, uplifting practice.

Restorative yoga prioritises stillness, relaxation, and a calmer state of mind. By incorporating props like yoga blocks, bolsters, blankets, and straps to support and align the body, restorative poses allow the body to fully relax in each posture (so no straining to lift and hold the body in the pose).

Mudras are symbolic and meaningful gestures. Hasta Mudra (hand gesture) is a method of citta-bhavana, or cultivating a specific state of mind. There are many mudras, and each represents a certain quality, such as compassion, courage, or wisdom. It is believed that by practising mudra you awaken the seeds of these states within you. This workshop will explore the variety of mudras using hands, eyes and body and integrate these mudras into our yoga asana. Let’s discover the power of mudras for cultivating inner peace, courage, and confidence.

This Nature and Nurture Workshop is designed to enhance and develop a personal sense of wellbeing through the practices of yoga. In this workshop we will approach the physical asana relating to where most of us hold tension, in the neck, lower back and hips. We will go deeper into the breath and meditation to release the tensions of the mind.
