YOGA & PILATES WORKSHOPS:

We have weekend workshops and masterclasses for all levels of experience, whether you’re a teacher, keen student or total novice. Guest teachers who visit the studio include Gary Carter, Michael Hutchinson and Penny Little.

Upcoming workshops are listed below:

JOURNEY TOWARDS BACK BENDING:

New date and venue: Saturday November 24, Tadley, near Basingstoke. Half day yoga workshop with Michael Hutchinson exploring the role of backward bends in our yoga practice. These are important poses not only for promoting strength, flexibility and a deep inhalation; they have a more subtle purpose in opening the heart area and boosting confidence. However they can also be a challenge – can we all learn to love Cobra, or Camel?

GARY CARTER – ANATOMY, MOVEMENT & FASCIA IN YOGA:

Friday December 14, 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 through the website. Cost: £32 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.
