Hey Guys!
Sunday (23rd June) is my last Sunday taking yoga and clients.

As a celebration I am putting on a ‘Somatics body work’ Workshop. Yoga at 2pm, Somatics at 3pm

Somatics is very simiral to yoga, where mind and body connect through mindfullness and breath work, but the touch therapy connects the body and mind on a whole new level releasing tensions from your body.

The practice is preformed in partners, I will demonstrate for the whole hour, how to preform the practice, whilst you preform on a partner and then switch over.

The whole practice is complete relaxation and very enjoyable.

My Suggestions
1. Have a partner in mind
To relax fully, I want you to be completely comfortable and the best way to do that is with someone you trust
2. Wear suitable clothing
If clothes are too tight or baggy they can restrict movement
3. Do not be hungry or full
As we are moving you, any discomfort in your tummy can make the experience less enjoyable.
4. You and partner MUST book on
I need to know numbers for space

Prices*
Yoga only members £5, non-members £7
Somatics workshop only members £5, no -members £7
Both activities members £8, non-members £10
Memberships pre- paid yoga free, workshop £3.

You can book for both events on the ClubRight app, any questions reguarding these, please message me 🙂

New Yoga class

Hot yoga is back in the winter months so don’t panic, but for summer we offer beginners yoga.

So it’s very suitable if you’ve never stepped foot into a yoga class before, and it is very suitable if you’re a practising yogi wanting to work on the core moves and fundamentals of yoga:

There will be a relaxation at the end also!!

Pose of week
Dancer’s pose/Natarajasana!

Also known as Lord of the dance pose or king dancer pose. King dancer pose translates better from the Sanskrit origin name Natarajasana. Nata =dancer raja = king asana= pose.

This pose is a standing pose, working on balance, including a back bend, improving in stretch and strength.

This pose shows patience and gracefulness, it takes persistent practice.

Give it a try, push the back foot into the hand, open the chest and drop the shoulders. Use something to hold onto if your balance isn’t great, and work to eventually do it without help.

***Changes to this weeks Hatha Yoga***

For this Mothers days, why not spend time with your mother figure and bring her to yoga, and she comes free.
This is not limited to your biological Mothers, it spreads to your step-mother, mother in law, aunty, Nan.

The time has changed to 11am so everyone can come to yoga earlier and spend the rest of their day, eating or opening presents.

One pay (members £5, non-member £7) and the Mothers come free as a little gift off me.

Thursdays Pose Of the Week is Tree Pose (vrikshasana)

This standing balance pose is a favourite among the children in the kid classes. They like repositioning their arms to make the *branches* into different shapes.

It strengthens the vertebral column, the thighs and the ankles. It stretches the thigh, shoulder and thorax.
This pose makes me feel grounded, the imaginary allows me to root my supporting foot into the floor and remain balanced.

To make this pose easier try lowering the leg down the supporting leg, placing it below the knee or near the ankle, make sure the knee is turned out, opening the hips.

Benefits for this pos besides strengthening and stretching certain part of the body includes:-
- improved stability and balance.
- helps one become more balanced in their lives
-assists in pelvic stability
-builds self-confidence and self esteem

Try it with me in one of my yoga classes based in the zen den in Ystrad Mynach’s Evolution Fitness.

Monday 12:30 hot yoga
