Save the Date!

I’m excited to launch a new Dandelion Yoga Deep Dive this month!

This 4-week focused course will explore the Core Connection — how your core stabilizes and supports your body, from the diaphragm and pelvic floor to the deep abdominal muscles and obliques. Through mindful, practical exercises, we’ll strengthen and integrate your core for better movement and body awareness.

Future Deep Dives will explore different parts of the body — this one is our the starting point.

Details: Starting Tuesday 4th November | 6:30–7:30pm | Ballymaloe Grainstore

May we soften the instinct to compare, and instead open our hearts to celebrate each other!

Your body remembers. Your practice teaches it to respond, not react!

New Yoga Courses Begin This Week in East Cork

If you’ve been carrying stress in your body, feeling stiff or out of balance, yoga can help you reset.

Study reveal the body stores tension and even memory in its tissues. Every movement sends signals to the brain and nervous system. When we move with awareness, we don’t just stretch, we retrain the body and mind toward calm, strength, and balance.

When you understand how your body communicates with your nervous system, you stop guessing. You start choosing - moving in ways that empower, heal, and sustain you.

That’s what these courses are about.
Beginners Yoga – starts Tuesday : 6:30pm - 7:30pm
Experienced Beginners – starts Wednesday: 6:30pm - 7:30pm
Ballymaloe Grainstore, East Cork

If you feel the pull to begin (or begin again), this is your moment.

Yoga is a personal journey of self-development.

“One of the many translations of the word ‘yoga’ means union—the harmonious connection of mind, body, and breath. While yoga offers numerous physical benefits, its true essence lies in cultivating ease within the mind.”
Gráinne, founder of Dandelion Yoga, brings a wealth of experience from studying various yoga styles to her body alignment-based Vinyasa classes. Known for her creative fluidity and emphasis on alignment, Gráinne’s classes leave students feeling balanced both physically and mentally. Her refined attention to detail and precise action cues guide students to explore postures deeply, expanding their comfort zones while finding ease.
Gráinne’s personal journey with yoga began as she sought relief from chronic back pain, dedicating herself to daily practice. Her commitment led to increased strength and mobility on and off the mat.
As both a student and teacher of yoga, she continues to explore and learn, deeply grateful for the wisdom passed down by her teachers, which you feel in her grounding classes.
Yoga guides us to tap into our inner beauty, strength, and power, nurturing these qualities within us. Dandelion Yoga has a welcoming and relaxed atmosphere, where you are encouraged to embrace your potential.

Join Dandelion Yoga & NatureLed for ‘Take A Hike’: Lake Muskry Edition

🗓 Sunday, August 10th🧘‍♀️ Optional Yoga at Ballymaloe | 8:00–9:00am
🚗 Meet at Lake Muskry Car Park | 11:00am
🥾 Finish approx. 4:00–4:30pm

Step out of the everyday and into something older.

We’ll begin with an optional morning yoga session at Ballymaloe to arrive into the day — open to everyone, whether you’re hiking or not.

Then we’ll carpool towards the Galtees and meet at the Lake Muskry car park for 11:00am.

From there, we hike.

The path brings us along mountain trails, gradually winding up to Lake Muskry — a still, glacial lake held in the quiet arms of the hills.

There, we’ll pause for a picnic, settle into a meditation, and soak in the stillness.

Traditionally, mountain lakes like Muskry were considered threshold places — spaces where the boundaries between this world and the Otherworld blurred.
To stop and sit quietly by such a lake is to return to this older rhythm, where landscape was alive and full of meaning.
Many who visit feel a shift, something subtle yet powerful, like touching the bones of the earth.

The rest of the day will unfold naturally — some time together, some time alone, all of it in good company.

Expect wind in your hair, mud on your boots, and a sense of having come home to something steady and real.

What to bring
– Good walking shoes or boots
– Layers for changeable weather
– Packed lunch and water
– Something to sit on (optional)
– Curiosity and a sense of the wild.

Booking now open: https://momence.com/Dandelion-Yoga/Take-A-Hike-%3A-Lake-Muskry-/120081284

I don’t fully have the words for last night. It was one of those rare evenings that lands somewhere deeper than you expect.

Ilse de Ziah music has a way of getting under your skin, it’s honest, raw and beautiful.

And the way everyone showed up, open, willing to drop in, to feel, to be still that made it what it was.

Thank you to each person who came and shared the space with us.

Our hope was to create something simple and real , a chance to pause, to breathe, to come back to yourself. I really hope it gave you what you needed.

Thank you as always to Ballymaloe Grainstore, it really is a special place!
