Lets get Inverted
The workshop begins with a warm up of the fundamentals followed by breaking down the variations of Bakasana (crow), headstand (Shashumna) and forearm stand (Pincha) . The inversion poses will build on our strength and challenge us by reversing the normal effects of gravity, it rests the heart, aids circulation and relieves pressure on the lower back. A regular inversion practice helps to prevent back problems and improves memory and concentration. Inverting the body also deepens the breath, bringing a fresh supply of oxygen-rich blood to the brain.

The focus is always on proper from and technique to ensure an effective practice.

A menopause workshop to help reduce the stigma, generate engagement and resolve some challenges.
At this friendly, accessible workshop our guest speaker and author Kate Codrington will be sharing a seasonal view of menopause which gives us a key to finding the self-care we crave. The shame around perimenopause keeps us isolated and fearful. By coming together in a safe group to name the challenges and share our experience, we come to find that despite our differences, there is an enormous strength to be found in connecting with others in the same process.
