Yoga with Ryan Dixon

Offering courses, events and workshops in Yoga. I teach postural yoga, breath practices and deep meditative relaxation. Certified Irest® Meditation Teacher.

I love meeting people from all walks of life and aim to make these sessions accessible for all. Offering Yoga Courses, private lessons and retreats. I completed the Mandala Yoga Ashrams Comprehensive 500 hour Teacher Training in 2014 which gave me a good grounding in teaching Asana, Pranayama and Meditation. It put me in good stead for delivering and managing Yoga Courses independently and from a place of authenticity since August 2013. Yoga is something that has interested me since I was in my early 20’s when I realised that my body was not invincible. I started to appreciate the joy of taking time to nurture my body through slow focused movement practices and breath centred Yoga. I sought out a local Yoga Teacher whilst living in Manchester and have never looked back. I aim to teach Yoga in a person centred way and will aim to guide new students towards the course which suits them best depending on their needs. Participants in any of the courses that I run will testify that whilst immersing yourself into the wonderful practices we refer to as Yoga, they will also experience a great sense of community.

That is week 3 completed of the current 5 week Yoga course.

I have enjoyed discussing the Niyamas this term and adding a reflective layer to our Breath work,posture practice and Meditation. This week we were covering Tapas and reflecting on inner fire/discipline/ courage - whether it is the courage to change what needs to be changed, to take action when it is needed, to say yes, to say no… and also the courage to show up on your yoga mat and practice :)

I did walk out of todays class thinking about the Lion from wizard of Oz, so for a bit of fun here is his take on courage :)

What makes the muskrat guard his musk? Courage! This classic bit from the Wizard of Oz is one of my favorites!

We’ve completed week 4 of the current Yoga Courses, well done to all who’ve taken part. Enjoy your home practice. See you soon :)

Well we've just completed week 3 of the current 8 week Yoga courses at The Sanctuary Of Healing, Langho, Blackburn. It has been a pleasure to observe how engaged the participants have been with all of the practices.

We've started off well, deepening our breathwork practices to include the wonderful 4 part breath which can help us to address current breathing habits and, for some, can open up possibilities for breathing with more ease, freedom and space. We've also been continuing with a series of moving sequences and postural practices which are grounded in movement science and somatics. These include spinal movements,dynamic balances and leg strengthening practices , all of which can be adapted to suit different bodies with varying states of stiffness and freedom 😁

I hope your home practice goes well and I look forward to seeing some of you next week 🙂

We have just finished the summer short courses, thankyou to all that have participated.

The focus has been on deepening our breathwork practices, experiencing the Bandha's, exploring the use of breathing in vinyasa and the breath as gateway to stillness and silence during restful meditation.

I look forward to continuing some of these themes in September where we'll have time to go deeper over a period of 8 weeks. Bookings are open and can be made here:

Dear all. Thanks for your attendance on this current set of 5 week Yoga courses. We have just completed week 3 and have 2 more weeks to look forward to. It has been good to consider different approaches to moving our bodies and how these ideas ideas have been influenced by the science of movement and also by exercise culture. It has also been a wonderful practice at the end of the sessions to drop into a meditation with the idea of "Yoga as the settling of the bodymind into silence."

As discussed today, here is the ionformation about the next lot of courses. Bookings are now open and can be made here https://ryandixon.co.uk/yogacourses

Thursday eve class will take place at 19:00 for the time being and I am taking a break from offering hybrid sessions.

Well done to all who have participated in Yoga this week at The Sanctuary Of Healing, Langho, Blackburn. We've just reached the end of week 2 (not all photos are from this week) and our movement practice has included working on dynamic balances whilst our restful meditations have focused on the idea of YOga as the settling of the mind into silence :)

I'm getting into the habit of keeping a photo diary of the sessions to document teaching at an excellent venue and also to give people an idea of what to expect.

British Wheel of Yoga & Mandala Yoga Ashram trained Y0ga Teacher. Self taught Community Musician

Yoga

I teach regular courses, workshops, specialised courses and retreats. I decided that I would like to teach Yoga in 2012, whilst studying on the 60 Hour British Wheel of Yoga Foundation course. This was with Feel Now Yoga who offered some great guidance relating to the many teacher training courses available at the time. I subsequently enrolled on the Mandala Yoga Ashram 500 hour teacher Training course and made Yoga my main main priority for the 2 year duration of that course. Since qualifying I have continued to learn from teachers such as Debbie Farrar, Gary Carter, Peter Blackaby, A.G. Mohan, Leslie Kaminoff and John Stirk. I like to spend as much time as possible under the guidance of teachers that I respect whilst also dedicating regular time to my personal practice.

Community Music

I have been teaching drums for more than 10 years and have gravitated towards teaching groups. I mainly teach percussion and song. I have 10 years plus experience and have worked in many different settings. These include: Primary & Secondary schools, S.E.N. schools, Learning Disability Day Centres, Dementia Day Centres, Oncology Units, Yoga Studios, Yoga Teacher Trainings, Universities. The content that i teach is adaptable to the needs of the group.
