RESTORATIVE YOGA TASTER SESSION

Friday June 28, 11.45am-1.00pm

‘Doing nothing very often leads to the best of something,’ Winnie the Pooh.

Come and enjoy a Restorative Yoga session: conscious, deep rest. A quietening practice in which the body is fully supported, using props, in positions for ease and comfort, when all external stimulation is removed so the mind becomes still and calm, and the body can repair, heal and rejuvenate. The poses are held for several minutes, allowing muscles to fully relax, and to feel a sense of openness, rather than stretching.

Restorative Yoga is for everyone. They complement more active classes and are an excellent way to nourish yourself if you are feeling stressed, anxious or overwhelmed.

GARY CARTER – ANATOMY, MOVEMENT & FASCIA IN YOGA:

2019 Dates: Fridays April 26, August 2 and November 22 1.30-4.30pm.  These regular sessions with Gary Carter are run as an on-going practice group with work on and off the mat, discovering how to refine our practice by moving with efficiency and intelligence. They are open to teachers, trainee teachers and experienced students (Yoga teachers can claim up to 3 CPD points per workshop).

Limited spaces so advance reservations are essential. Book here. Cost: £35 per session.

Gary Carter is one of the UK’s leading teachers of anatomy as it relates to yoga and Pilates. He has over 30 years of experience of working with physical movement training, anatomical study and movement practices, from which he has created his own unique way of working and ‘seeing’ which he incorporates into his teachings, where students learn techniques and methods of training that bring long term results to the feel, movement and look of the body. Gary teaches and lectures throughout the UK and internationally in addition to running his highly acclaimed Anatomy & Myofascial courses for yoga and Pilates teachers.

GARY CARTER’S ANATOMY & MYOFASCIAL MOVEMENT COURSE FOR TEACHERS:

10 weekends starting October 19/20 2019.  This comprehensive course explores the anatomy of movement in relation to practice, movement analysis, 3D work and experiential anatomy. It will encourage teachers to ‘see’ their students more clearly, thus helping with rehabilitative issues. The course aims to help teachers take a flexible, intelligent approach to their specific field with individual students.

Course cost: £1850. Early registration discounted price £1695 if booked and paid for by March 31 2019.
