And just like that, I have gravitated back to NI (at least for now). After an eventful few months living and working in Shanghai, I'm back in Northern Ireland, and sorting out a few bits and bobs to get things up and running again. I would love to see you again in a yoga class, or for a Thai massage treatment.
In August I'm running four yoga classes on Thursdays 10th, 17th, 24th, and 31st 6-7.15 at Maitri Studio Belfast. These are Hatha Vinyasa / Jivamukti based yoga classes so we'll flow through a series of postures linking the breath with movement and class will be supported with pranayama, meditation, deep relaxation, and optional hands-on-assists. These classes are open to everyone, although it's best if you have a little yoga experience but you quickly pick things up after a few classes. Feel free to send a message if you have any questions about the classes or want to check if they're the right fit for you.
This month I'm offering Thai massage treatments at Maitri Studio Belfast starting from Thursday 10th August. Appointments are available 10-5.15 on Thursdays, Saturdays, and Sundays throughout August. Available slots are up on the booking platform, so feel free to book in, or get in touch if you have any questions about the treatment itself or specific time requests. A Thai massage is a little different to a normal massage in that it's a mixture of dynamic yoga stretches, massage techniques, and acupressure. However it's all done lying down so it's both deeply relaxing and rejuvenating while also being beneficial for flexibility and helping keep the body loose, supple, and pain free. Here are two videos that give you an example of what a Thai massage treatment can look like:

Lastly, I am moving to a new booking platform called momence. I've used this platform for a studio I go to when I visit London, and it is super efficient. You have to make your initial booking online, then you can download the app on your phone and make future bookings there. For all of August you can use the code AUG10 to receive 10% off yoga classes and Thai massage treatments at checkout.
