Connection & Community are at the heart of Kirtan so we're introducing a new YOU & A FRIEND ticket deal

If you already love our Kirtans this is a great opportunity to encourage a new friend or family member along

If you've never been, it's a great opportunity to try something new with a pal for support

Kirtan is a heart-centred form of yoga and vocal meditation where we chant and sing mantras to music together as a group. You can choose to join in or not, you'll still get lots of benefit, there's no pressure to sing and you don't have to have any singing ability or previous experience

It's a really fun and effective way to pause the busy chatter in your mind, and bring you into a more loving connection with yourself and others, centering your attention on your heart space. It can help you experience the many benefits of meditation without having to sit still or be quiet! Mantra literally means 'mind tool / free the mind' and it's an amazingly effective way to quickly dissolve stress

Come join us and bring your friends 👇

Dear fellow yogis and teachers,

Join us as we celebrate the wealth of yoga practice and teaching experience around Belfast with a series of workshops at Maitri Studio in collaboration with the Yoga Fellowship of Northern Ireland ✨

These workshops are for yoga students, from beginners to teachers, as we continue to learn from each other and share our experiences. We know there are students out there in all of the studios in Belfast who have no interest in becoming teachers but enjoy diving into extra learning. And there are many relatively newly qualified teachers, who maybe learned elsewhere and do not have a system of ongoing professional development, for whom these workshops could be an ideal way to progress.

The Yoga Fellowship is recognised by Sport NI as the accredited governing body for yoga in N. Ireland. The sessions all count as recognised CPD hours for teaching members of the Fellowship. All of these workshops are run by experienced teachers who have many hours of teaching and practice and continue to learn themselves. Maitri Studio is very happy to be connected to the Fellowship, a yoga sangha for NI fostering a deepening understanding of yoga in all its forms, connecting member practitioners and yoga teachers, and promoting the benefits of yoga to all levels of society.

All the workshops are three hours long, at weekends and cost £40 or £30 for Yoga Fellowship members. Book on our website : https://maitristudio.net/features/deepening-practice-series

If you're interested in a Yoga Fellowship membership go through their website https://yogafellowshipni.org/joinnow.

Imbolc Cross Weaving Workshop with Cara Mcloughlin 🔅

Join us Saturday 31st January 2-4pm to mark the arrival of Imbolc and the turning of the season though cross weaving and conversation.

While the St. Brigid’s Cross is a familiar symbol, its roots reach far beyond a single narrative, stretching back to pre-Christian traditions and shared global weaving practices.

Perhaps this is a tradition that you already practice, and you want to explore it more. Perhaps it is simply a tradition that you are curious about. Whether you are drawn to the folklore, the spiritual shift of Imbolc, or the simple meditative act of making, Cara will ask you to consider what this practice means to you.

Come share in the craft, contribute to the conversation, and leave with a handmade cross that reflects your own connection to this evolving tradition.
