YIN & RESTORATIVE YOGA
With Sofie Swindlehurst
Friday 13th December. 6:30pm – 8pm
Cost: £9
Yin is the calm, receptive opposite to dynamic yang. Of course we need both but our swift-paced world tends to find life a little too heavy in yang!
Yin Yoga focuses on the connective tissues of the body using longer-held, more supported asana to open up tight, dense areas that can build up over time. It’s great for those of us with slow-creep postural habits, those of us with specific sports goals and those of us who just want to take better care of our joint health. By coupling with restorative, this practice brings generous relaxation and renewal.
Come revel in spacious stillness.
Feel free to drop in or contact Sofie: 07967 820260

Mindful Yin Yoga is a permissive, nourishing, yielding practice. It works on the deep tissues in the body that need a gentle, longer-held pressure to be stimulated and grow stronger.

The tissue will lengthen, open-up and become stronger, restoring itself and increasing flexibility of the whole body.

FAMILY YIN & RESTORATIVE YOGA
With Sofie Swindlehurst
Friday 3rd January. 6:30pm – 7:30pm
Cost: £9 / £6 concessions
Come share your chilled Fridays
This family class runs alongside our usual monthly Yin & Restorative (second Friday). It remains an adult class but is geared more toward those who want to bring teens and older juniors – or indeed toward they who want to bring their elders! – for shared space and serenity.
Yin is calm and peaceful. Yang is active and dynamic. Of course we need both but our swift-paced world tends to find life a little too heavy in yang! So here we bring balance and practice the transition back to peace.
Yin Yoga targets the fascia (connective body tissue), opening up tight, dense areas that can build up over time. Blending yin with restorative yoga – where the body is entirely supported for the deepest rest – allows us to ease out, realign and thoroughly restore.
Feel free to drop in or contact Sofie: 07967 820260

FLUID HIBERNATION – A WINTER SEASONAL YOGA WORKSHOP
With Sharon Waterson
Saturday 18TH January, 2pm – 4:30pm
INVESTMENT: Book online and pay before the day to receive the early bird discount of £20, or drop in and pay £25 on the day as long as there’s space.
Through our technological advances we have created a world where, particularly in developed countries, we live busier and busier lives as the daylight hours and communication barriers no longer restrict us. Despite this, we have begun to feel completely disconnected from ourselves and the world around us. As a result the stress hormones within our bodies remain elevated and our physical and mental health begins to suffer in ways that they never did 100 years ago.
Join Sharon for an immersion into Seasonal Yoga and learn how our daily habits, priorities, dietary intake and behaviours can be altered during the Season of Winter so that we may become more attuned to the natural world around us. Learning to flow with the seasonal peaks and troughs of energy in nature to avoid future burn out. Practice the ancient practices of Hatha yoga, Tai Chi & Qigong to align your energy with that of Winter.
During the workshop you will discover, in an experiential way, how changing the focus of your meditation, pranayama and asana practice each season can bring about a greater sense of balance and harmony for the whole being.
This workshop will focus on working with the energy channels (meridians) of the Kidneys and the Bladder, the water element and creating the calmness of hibernation deep within ourselves. Take this opportunity to work with the energy of the Winter Season, a time for reflection and introspection , recharging and rejuvenating as the energy withdraws inwards. Learn how to create stillness and be comfortable with that in this, the most YIN time of year.
The workshop will close with a seasonally inspired Yoga Nidra to leave you feeling relaxed and grounded. With Seasonal treats and factsheets to take home, you will have the tools to begin living more seasonally from the moment you leave the session.
The workshop is suitable for all abilities and open to those from age 12 years upwards. Please note that any persons under 16 years of age should be accompanied by a paying adult.
ONLINE BOOKING LINK: https://bookwhen.com/truselfyoga
CANCELLATION POLICY: 72 hours notice for a full refund or transfer to another Seasonal workshop. If less than 72 hours notice a refund is only possible if your place can be filled by another participant. Please do not hesitate to contact Sharon at sharonwaterson@truselfyoga.co.uk or 07732 042 918

BREATH OF LIFE
With Vicki Shields (SYT)
Saturday 1st February 10:30- 12:00pm and 1pm 3:00pm
Sunday 2nd February 10:30- 12:00pm and 1pm 3:00pm
Don’t underestimate the power of your breath when you learn how to switch your breathing from shallow to deep diaphragmatic breathing, it has immense benefits for body and mind. This workshop is aimed at complete beginners but also it is perfect for teachers wanting to deepen their knowledge. Pranayama reduces anxiety, depression insomnia, production of stress hormones and increases a sense of peacefulness towards yourself and others.
This workshop will give you all the tools you need to begin everyday with some simply breathwork, progressing onto simple Pranayama.
The practice of Pranayama; the ability to prolong and control the physical act of breathing, it is deeply therapeutic, and can be considered a tool to help you bring about physical health, increased awareness, calmness and clarity over one’s mind. It is the 4th limb of Patanjali’s Ashtanga Yoga and therefore stands at the very heart of Yoga, and yet it is little understood and rarely taught in any depth in regular weekly classes. Asana alone is rarely enough to achieve the state of “Yoga”.
The practice of asana, pranayama and meditation should be integrated , they should inform and complement one another.
SATURDAY 1st FEBRUARY
10:30-12:30 Understanding the importance of deep breathing and the preparatory exercises that address tension built up in the diaphragm, abdomen and jaw, helping to liberate the breath and the life force energy. Introduction of simple pranayama practice £25
1pm – 3pm Science & Philosophy and Mantra Recitation £25
Booked together £40
SUNDAY 2nd FEBRUARY
10:30-12:30 Building on the understanding of day one with further pranayama techniques £25
1pm-3pm Integrating into Asana practice & meditative techniques £25
Booked together £40
Space limited to 12 students booking of both days will take priority at a cost of £75
Those looking to gain 10 CPD will be required to also fulfil 2 hours of home study which includes reading and additional evening practice.
To book, contact Vicki Shields: v.shields@btinternet.com
