Mid Summer Flow - A Vinyasa Master-Class

In Celebration of Summer Solstice - ‘Honouring the Light ’

Friday 21st June - 6.30 - 8.30 pm

Mid Summer offers us so much more daylight, which translates as energy, possibility, fire, exuberance and passion, so this class will celebrate the nourishing light of the Sun, and the light within each of us.

The cycle of the Sun represents the cycle of our lives and reflects the natural flow of energy moving inward and outward, so it’s important to make the most of this light fertile summer vitality and to focus on our passions and outward achievements.

This upbeat Summer Flow master-class will be a vibrant lively practice, you can expect a fusion of an inspiring tribal playlist, combined with breath and innovative flowing movement to lift your spirit.

A properly executed vinyasa krama practice mimics the way nature works-always moving, evolving and changing. Events in nature do not just happen, they unfold, they develop. Thus in our vinyasa practice, we let each asana unfold into the next, the way a seed unfolds into a stem, then into a bud, then into a flower, then back into the earth to nourish the next generation. When asanas, the sequence of changes, are intelligently woven together with breath and conscious intention, we align ourselves with the continuous flow, the undulating rhythm, of the universe. Then our postures and transitions become an expression of effortless grace, joy and pure presence for body, mind and spirit.

We will begin with a 15 minute seated mediation where we will set a meaningful intention, then you can expect some warm up stretches, followed by san salutations, then several carefully planned vinyasa krama sequences, which will lead us to an apex pose - or two. We will culminate the practice with 10 minutes of supine postures designed to calm the nervous system followed by a 10 minute deep relaxation.

Let’s enjoy the energy, expansion and growth of summer by opening up all of our senses; “There’s a different kind of listening we use, with the subtle shifts of physical consciousness, then the breath untangles the tightness of the body and mind, and we become curious to the process.
