Dynamic Thai Massage
In this workshop we will work on dispersing the chi using a combination of dynamic Thai massage techniques and the stillness of static enquiry. This is a unique exploration of the body, using the water element to increase flow and harmony in the body, with rocking and movement to dispel stagnant energy, facilitate mobility in the joints, stretch the meridians and create space.
Back to the Source of Love
In this class we will focus on inversions and back bending.
It’s easy to get stuck in only one way of seeing things, holding on for years to feelings of resentment and anger. We may think it serves us in order to establish justice forever, but what we don’t realize is that we are limiting our freedom and happiness by holding on to the past. Magic is a shift in perception. Letting go is a step to freedom and creating space for new beginnings. In this Jivamukti Open class we will look at the world at a different angle going upside down and free our hearts of tension, inviting love and compassion.
Yin Yoga – Pranayama – Devi Dance
The Yin Yoga practice invites us to an intimate exploration of how to let go and accept to stop controlling, to follow the natural flow of life. From this sweet, slow and deep practice of asanas on the floor, supported by simple pranayama, we will start explore spontaneous movements. We learn to move in a meditative state, connected to our deepest self. With an open heart we will offer our dance as a prayer.
