Gentle Somatic and Hatha Yoga Classes in Consett, Shotley Bridge and surrounding areas

It’s International women’s day.
The history of yoga practice is littered with male centered lineages from Krishnamacharya to Desikachar, Iyengar and Pattabhi Jois.
Today I’d like to remember some of the women:
Helena Blavatsky who first brought The Yoga Sutras of Patanjali to the west.
Vanda Scaravelli who developed her own style of practice that focused more on women’s experience of the world through fluidity, grace and the dance of breath and movement.
Indra Devi who taught yoga to “the stars” in the 1950’s and was influential in creating the whole “healthy lifestyle” movement we recognise today.
Just a few of the many women who influenced the teaching and practice of yoga today. We are standing on the shoulders of giants.

Diploma days come around so quickly.
A hot cup of tea and some time to go through my plans before students turn up is a welcome start to my day.
Quick reminder - there is no class in Castleside this Sunday 8th March!
What are you up to this weekend!

All classes are running to schedule this week. Tonight we are in St Cuthberts Church Hall from 7.00pm -8.30pm.
Yoga is the perfect way to ease aching muscles and calm frazzled minds.
Do come and join me.

Happy Monday.
So many possibilities as the beginning of a brand new week!
I hope your Yoga gives you space in your day to open up to them.

Welcome to March! The first day of metereological spring.
It’s a time of new beginnings as we prepare for the season of growth ahead.
It’s also the feast of “Matronalia” A celebration of women through the Roman goddess Juno who is associated to feminine strength and renewal.
In classes this week we’ll be exploring poses that reflect those ideas including our strong female warrior.

There are still a couple of places left on the Cober Hill weekend in May with Maureen McCarthy and me!
We are planning a fun weekend of practice.
Maureen and I have very different styles so after you’ve challenged yourself with her, you can come chill out with me. There’ll be stories, music, sea views and opportunities for walks (weather permitting) not to mention great company! Interested? Drop Maureen an email to holisticyogammc@gmail.com

Diploma Day rolls around so quickly. The hall is a bit of a mess this morning as we are working around the decorators. We are looking at (and questioning) the role of the psoas so I had great fun this morning padding around in the damp and the darkness loading my car with body parts ! I’m sure the neighbours think I’d weird enough already and now I’m apparently a body snatcher to boot! 😂
