YOGA COURSES & WORKSHOPS

WAKING UP TO SPRING WITH AIMEE BARNES
Monday 15th March - Friday 19th March | 6.45 am - 7.35am £20.00 for the full 5 day course The ritual of practice can feel really grounding during times of transition. So as we prepare to move into Spring, join me for five days of flow to celebrate the Spring equinox. After such a long Winter, nature is uncoiling, slowly emerging from the dark depths of stillness. In the world of Traditional Chinese Medicine, the season of Spring is associated with the element of Wood, which relates to growth, renewal, expansion and creativity. This is the perfect time to revisit goals, visions and intentions.
Drawing inspiration from nature, we will practice together at sunrise, exploring energising movements with a playful undertone, as we shed the heaviness of Winter and make space for the vibrant spirit of Spring. |

MENSTRUALITY CONSCIOUSNESS COURSE
6 WEEK COURSE WITH ALYCE BIDDLE
Wed 17th March to 21st April | 7pm until 9pm
Menstruality consciousness is a way of being in awareness of the natural rhythms and cycles of your own body. The opportunity for this is not commonly offered to us in our lives, and many of us grow up ignoring these natural cycles or covering up our period when it arrives. Bringing awareness to your monthly cycle is bringing the seed of kindness toward yourself everyday. It’s a way of living harmoniously with the natural ebbs and flows of our energy, our moods, and working out how to manage the discomfort or joy this can bring.
This 6 week course is an introduction to Menstruality Consciousness as a practice for self-care. We’ll look at the seasonal aspects of the menstrual cycle and what yoga practices can support us at these different stages. There’ll be equal parts theory and practices, and we’ll cover topics such as natural fertility, having environmentally friendly periods, pain management and cycle tracking.
The course will include 4 recorded nidras for you to use throughout your cycle, hand out sheets to help with cycle tracking, and other resources you can use after the course has finished.
This course doesn’t offer medical diagnosis although it will be inclusive of those with conditions such as endometriosis, fibroids and painful periods. Whilst this course is most suitable for women who bleed , I recognise not all who menstruate are women and not all women menstruate - if you would like to have a chat about this course and whether it’d work for you please get in touch alyceyoga@gmail.com

What is it that awakens you to life? That sparks instant delight and fuels sacred purpose? What brings meaning into your life?
In this workshop we’ll explore these questions through the lens of Yoga Philosophy, specifically, the Powers of Shakti (creative energy). We'll learn how individually and collectively these powers can help us to channel our creative energy and overcome personal blocks and limitations. There will be a mixture of discussion, movement, reflection, rest and helpful practises to take away.
Elly's intention in Expand & Integrate, is to awaken new pathways of curiosity which bring Yoga off the mat in life-affirming ways; to honour Yoga as a life practice, rooted in wisdom.
She has been practising Yoga for 10 years and trained in the Anusara method in 2015 and 2017. She is currently training to become a yoga therapist, is also a singer, songwriter and is deeply interested in the creative process as a path of awakening and healing.
