September News

Hi Friends,
Just to let you know that my long-awaited yogashala is nearing completion and that the first taster Vinyasa Flow Yoga session will take place Wednesday September 16th at 7:00pm.

Vinyasa flow incorporates elements of breath (pranayama), vinyasa and astanga yoga which I fuse together in a fluid stretching sequence based on my therapeutic training. Instead of rigidly interposing a Vinyasa (connecting movement between asanas) at the end of each pose, the asanas are opened up and explored gently on each side of the body to allow for the warm and natural stretch of the sinews to have full effect.

The taster will be followed by regular Wednesday evening class:

6:00pm - Beginners - a fusion of the spiritual side of Sivananda with the therapeutic rigour of Iyengar yoga.

7:00pm - Vinyasa Flow.

I hope to see you all here and request that you phone to book before each session as space is limited - 07835 522 582 / 01458 833 067.

Love and light,
Alan ((Ananta अनन्‍त )

Although we are looking forward to the Spring Awakening, I thought it was worth commenting on the Zen description of Winter and how it affects the human condition through the meridians of the Urinary Bladder and Kidney - and you will find these reflections in the newsletter link below. I hope you find it enjoyable.
