Chair Yoga: Accessible Yoga for Everyone
NEW WEEKLY CLASS FROM SEPTEMBER 19TH

Chair yoga is a modified form of yoga that is practiced while seated in a chair. It’s designed to make the benefits of yoga accessible to people with limited mobility, seniors, or those who find it difficult to get up and down from the floor.

Benefits of Chair Yoga:
Improved flexibility: Even seated, you can stretch and increase your range of motion.
Increased strength: Chair yoga targets specific muscle groups, helping to build strength.
Better balance: While not as dynamic as standing poses, chair yoga can help improve balance and coordination.
Reduced stress and anxiety: The focus on breathing and mindfulness inherent in yoga can help manage stress.
Improved posture: Regular practice can help correct posture and alleviate back pain.
What to Expect in a Chair Yoga Class:
A chair yoga class typically involves:

Warm-up: Gentle movements to prepare the body for the practice.
Seated poses: Modifications of traditional yoga postures adapted for a chair.
Breathing exercises: Focusing on deep, calming breaths.
Meditation or relaxation: A quiet time to connect with your inner self.
Chair yoga is a gentle and effective way to incorporate yoga into your life, regardless of your fitness level or physical limitations.

Would you like to learn some basic chair yoga poses? Then join us when this WEEKLY class starts on:

September 19th 9am

Have you lost your voice?
Feel like you can’t say what’s on your mind?

Kirtan is Yogic singing and really does help to release the tension in the throat which is where our 5th Chakra Vissudha resides.

Here, through sound and vibration we can tap into this energy wheel and set it spinning so we can find our voices and say what’s on our minds! It’s a beautiful evening and no you do not need to be an opera singer to join in. You sing in the shower right!?!?, then you can sing. 🎶

Join us and get into the happy vibe that is Kirtan.

Superflow™ Ocean Inspired Yoga with Eoin Finn

This way of moving involves being present to every breath that we take and to our collective universal breath. You will engage in alignment-based flow yoga to move in linear synchronicity, patterning your body to the alignment of yogaasanas.

These patterns, the spiralling, circular forms of movement that are essential to our innate selves, we call “Super flow.”

Drawing inspiration from Yoga, ancient martial arts, dance, surfing, ski and snowboard maneuvers, Superflow is an ecstatic form of movement. Set to music, it starts off slowly allowing ourselves to feel centered and open in our bodies.

Gradually we build up in intensity, spiralling back in touch with the joy of movement. Superflow is not a replacement of Yoga as we know it, but a powerful complement to the regular yoga practice. Offering a little more exuberance and a little less introverted energy. It complements static movements with rhythmic flow. You will sweat, release, and feel the life force pulsing through you.

“Bio-mechanically sound, heart centred, nature inspired, philosophically grounded teachings of the Yoga Practice that attempt to address what I believe to be the biggest problem of our times, disconnection.

We are disconnected from our own body, mind and heart, we are disconnected from one another. I teach practices that I call Blissology, to help us to reawaken pathways to connection, from neurological brain body connections to the heart space so we live up to our fullest potential for ananda or bliss.”

SisterMoons’ first weekend gathering is being held at Tess’ home this year.

These gatherings have become such a support to those attending it’s been quite magical to watch. Even myself, Tess, received an out pouring of support when I lost my nerve earlier in the year and these gals were there to prop me up! Amazing.

Super friendly, super supportive, always loads of smiles and sometimes tears but you’ll always leave feeling as though something heavy has left you and you feel lighter to carry on.

With its Witchy vibe ever present, book now to receive your secret email on where to go and what spell components to bring.

This one is going to be powerful, I can feel it!

DYNAMIC BODY MEDITATION
WITH ROBIN FULLER

In this workshop with Robin you will explore the profound connection between mind, body, and emotion. Through a playful blend of movement and meditation practices, you will find a greater awareness and sense of your own emotional processes, but also, and possibly more important, you will build connection, trust and community within the group. You’ll find yourself over the journey become calmer, grounded and better able to process those trickier emotions. You’ll be empowered with techniques to release the wisdom within your body, express yourself authentically and use these new found methods in your every day life.

NYC Says:
Robin is such an energy! Totally hang out with this guy if you want to explore and play!!! Catch him on Insta grooving around his kitchen, wandering barefoot in the woods and bascially being a ray of just the sunniest inspiration youv’e ever met. Previous students have commented on how warm, open and trustworthy Robin is, so get this booked, you’ll just love it!

This is a five week adventure, starting on May 2nd and culminating on May 30th over five consecutive Thursday evenings.

In this day and age we have become isolated from our fellow sisters as we become mothers, partners, bosses etc and before long we lose our sense of connection to each other, we try to find reassurance from our men or keep ourselves busy with the children but what we really need is the support and comfort of a good bunch of girls!
This gathering is where Women come to create, share, move, laugh, cry and let go. Any age, be it young or old we all need to share and listen to each others wisdom. We meet around the eight Pagan festivals of the year and has a Witchy feel, it’s light hearted and fun and always supportive.
This Beltane we will meet in the studio.
