This monthly class offers long holds in supported asana, providing deep release in the body and a quiet stillness in the mind. Restorative yoga practice is the first step towards Pranayama, since it teaches us the stillness required to begin to observe and understand our breath, while conditioning the body, particularly the respiratory organs, for Pranayama practice. A restorative practice teaches us to listen to our body and nourishes us in both body and mind.

Sat 7 March, PRACTICE

Yoga practice is rooted in repetition over a long period of time with intensity and intention. Intensity is not force but the search of a balanced effort in the practice of asanas. Intention is the gradual attunement of the mind towards the core, the sacred centre from which clarity arises. In this workshop, we will practice several clusters of asanas drawn from different categories. Through the repeated practice of each asana within a cluster, we aim to penetrate more deeply into the essence of each posture. In this way, the asanas reveal a common inner structure, becoming one continuous and connecting thread.

Sun 8 March, EXTENSIONS

We will refer to the inspiring quote:
BKS Iyengar: “Do not think of yourself as a small, compressed, suffering thing. Think of yourself as graceful and expanding, no matter how unlikely it might seem at the time”. (Light on Life)

 

Both days are suitable for those with some previous experience (Intermediate +).

We are so delighted to bring back these monthly online classes with Rajlaxmi.

Many of you know Rajlaxmi from her classes at RIMYI, Pune. She has worked alongside the Iyengar family, especially Geetaji, for many years. Her teaching is incredibly generous and insightful and it is no surprise that she has a devoted following around the globe.

We have asked her to help us deepen our study of the Level 2 and Level 3 asanas and the principles and actions for some of the more challenging backbends, twists, inversions etc.  So this requires that you have a fairly strong and consistent personal practice – it doesn’t matter whether you can “do” these asanas or not but that you are practising at a level that you are ready and willing to explore them.

To book your place, please sign in to your account and select the date of each class you plan to attend on the Timetable. If you buy the pass for all 3 classes, you will only need to pay once but please do register for each class separately.

The class recording will be available afterwards for a month.
