Yoga & Singing Retreat Ubud, 8 to 14 September 2023
Charismatic choir leader, composer, story teller, Anders Nyberg, will be joining me for a yoga and singing retreat in Bali in September.
Swedish born, Anders is also a citizen of South Africa. Captivated by African rhythms from a young age his arrangements also draw from Swedish folk, choral works and jazz. Anders studied choral conducting at Stockholm’s Royal Music Academy. He has led many choirs and singing adventures around the world, including UN celebrations marking the end of Apartheid. He also co-wrote the wonderful, Oscar nominated film, As it is in Heaven, about a choir in a small Scandinavian village.
Just as the yoga will cater for all levels, Anders’ workshops are for people who love to sing, whether professionally or along with the radio. And if you just want to come for the yoga that’s fine too! The retreat will be at beautiful Narasoma. A stunning sanctuary in the heart of Ubud. Head to my website for details https://www.theyogapractice.net.au/ubud-bali-yoga-retreat or pm me for more info. I can't wait to see where this week will take us.

Yoga & Singing Retreat Ubud, September 2023
I'm so excited to share news that the charismatic international choir leader, composer, story teller, and Oscar nominated script writer Anders Nyberg, will be joining me for a yoga and singing retreat in Bali in September 2023.

I was lucky enough to attend a singing retreat in the Blue Mountains a few years ago, where Anders was one of three amazing choir leaders. Our voices raised rooftops and floated through mountain spaces.

A citizen of both South Africa and Sweden, Anders choral arrangements are an eclectic mix that draw from Swedish folk, African influences, jazz and spiritual music. With his passion for people, places, social justice and the environment infusing this heady mix. When I reflect back on Anders’s workshops it always brings a smile to my face. Provocative, joyous, poignant and life affirming are the words that come to mind.

Just as the yoga sessions will cater for all levels of ability, Anders’ workshops are for people who love to sing, whether professionally or in the shower.

The retreat is from 8 to 14 September 2023, staying at beautiful Narasoma. A stunning sanctuary in the heart of Ubud.

Head to the website for more details https://www.theyogapractice.net.au/ubud-bali-yoga-retreat or, you can pm me.
I can't wait to see where this week will take us.

Just a reminder, that yoga is actually suitable for everyone. Try to tune out the body shaming, the superficial, the wackiest of wacky woo (unless you’re into that), the nonsense that seems to go along with yoga in some circles. It’s a simple yet sophisticated system of movement, breathing, and stillness that brings many benefits, but has to be experienced to be known. Nothing fancy is required or expected. We don’t care how you look, your many identities are all welcome, you don’t need to be fit, flexible, female or young. We can help make yoga fit you, in all your unique brilliance.

Hi all, a quick note to let you know that I'm running a couple of virtual classes via zoom each week. One free session and one $10 session. If you feel like you need some guided practices at home in these quieter times please PM me your email address and I will add you to our mailing list. Look after each other Josie

20/03/2020

There will be an outdoor session tomorrow at 8.30am on the grass at the Mundaring Sculpture Park. We've had a session there previously which was really lovely. So join us for this one off pop up if you can. There will be lots of space to spread out and we can connect, and enjoy the morning sun in this madness without anxiety. https://www.theyogapractice.net.au/yogaclassbookings

Sadly, our retreats in Dwellingup & Ubud have also needed to be postponed. The Dwellingup retreat will be happening on the Anzac weekend in 2021 and the Narasoma retreat in Ubud in October. It's disappointing but we'll treasure the opportunity even more when the time comes.

I've had some people asking me this week if I might create some classes on line to share. I thought about doing this but noticed in the last few days that online classes are popping up everywhere so I don't think I need to add my bit as there is already lots to choose from. I really encourage you seek out classes to do at home or, to make time to bake in your own self-led practice.

In these times of uncertainty, yoga, creative practices and looking out for each other is so important. Postponing indoor group gatherings is really sad for that loss of connection to our community but the world will right itself. In the meantime keep connected to daily anchors and inspirations and look out for yourself and your loved ones

Hope to see you in the park tomorrow! Please bring a mat if you have one.
Or, if not then, I hope to see you soon.

With much Meta
Josie
