Happy Sunday yoga friends! This Tuesday 12th Nov at 19.00-20.15 you are invited to join me for a hatha-based yoga class at Nieuwe Sint Jansstraat 35.

In this class, we will pick up our theme from last Sunday, which was the element of fire, this time focusing on finding the fire within our own bellies. Our movement practice will focus on the core muscles of the body. This won’t be an ab workout! We will play with finding core strength in unexpected places, and learn how to apply it to find more stability in our asana.

We will close the class with a short silent meditation (i will guide you into it). If you feel inspired to bring a candle again to help your meditation practice, please feel welcome! I am happy to guide anyone missed last week’s class but would like to try candle meditation (a Hatha yoga practice called Trataka), and will have extra candles at the shala. You can also meditate without a candle.

Yoga class Sunday 3rd Nov, 11:00-12.30 @ Nieuwe Sint Jansstraat 35

Good afternoon yoga friends! I invite you to join me this Sunday 3rd Nov at 11:00-12:30, at Nieuwe Sint Jansstraat 35, for a slow flow and yin yoga practice. This week’s class is inspired by our current seasonal transition into the winter months, and the Gaelic fire festival of Samhain, which marks the passage from the lighter to the darker part of the year, and honors the dead. We will explore how our bodies also require phases of rest and quiet, so that new energy can emerge. We will begin with a slow flow asana practice to generate a little warmth before moving into a passive yin practice to allow our bodies to rest, restore and let go of old tensions. We will close with a Hatha yoga meditation technique called Trataka, where we gaze at the flame of a candle. I will have quite a few candles at the space which we can share in small groups, but if you have extra to share or want your own personal candle, please feel free to bring them! This class is suitable for all regardless of yoga experience, we welcome beginners and dedicated practitioners alike. I will offer some options to allow you to adapt the practice to your own needs. The class is donation based, via cash or tikkie, and your donation supports the continuation and growth of our community. However, we encourage your participation even if donation is not possible for you right now. For this class you need your yoga mat, two blocks (if you have some, we have some for you if not), plus maybe a candle. Bring a friend if you’d like, and I hope to see you there! Saoirse 🍀
