Day Retreat: Spine and Core workshop and Yin Yoga workshop

Included in this day retreat is:

2&1/2 hr workshop with a focus on the spine and core

2 course lunch provided by Naturally Nourished

2hr Yin Yoga & Yoga Nidra workshop

Spine & Core workshop:

The spine and the core go hand in hand with each other. Our spine is our structure and the core supports and protects this structure. During this workshop we will learn about all the movements of the spine and core, how to segment and control them more efficiently and how to build strength and stability. As with all my workshops we will begin with the basic foundations and build the stepping stones for us to be able to work towards more dynamic poses in a more safe and integrated way. It is important to me to bring a sense of community and fun into these days so expect some interactive play, partner work and hopefully lots of laughs.

Yin Yoga & Yoga Nidra

This workshop is the perfect balance to the dynamic morning workshop. It is the yin to our yang. This truly is a magical practice. It is less about a physical challenge and far more about the mental challenge. This is a mindful practice mainly done with your eyes closed holding various seated and lying down poses for a few minutes at time with gentle music in the background. It is a practice that helps you to connect more deeply to your inner self, remove yourself from any external distractions and simple be present with your experience at that time. I will finish this workshop off with Yoga Nidra also known as yogic sleep. It is a deep guided meditation in which you will be guided through breath awareness, bodily sensations and visualisation. It is a beautiful and simple practice and the perfect way to close out the day.

This day will take place in Ballintotis community hall in Ballintotis East Cork which is about 5 minutes beyond Midleton from 10am to 4pm.

It is €65 for the day, €25 deposit to hold your spot. Limited spaces left. Text or call 0863241168 to book.
