I hope you are all keeping cool during these hot days. We are also taking it a little slower at Little Yoga Space these days, and are focusing on a couple of special events:
☀️ Sunday 6th July: Nourish Your Heart ~ Summer Afternoon Retreat in Sintra with Hayley, Johanna & Katrin
☀️ Saturday 26th/Sunday 27th July: ELEVATE ~ a gathering for facilitators in Sintra

We look forward to welcoming you as always!

You don’t need another training. You need a space to land.

ELEVATE is a 2-day gathering in nature for facilitators who have already walked a long path and are now feeling the quiet pull toward something new.

This isn’t a retreat filled with activities or a workshop packed with content. It’s a curated, intentional space to slow down, reconnect with your vision, and be in conversation with others who are also navigating what’s next.

We’ll gather in a forest studio just outside Sintra, moving between talks, practices, shared meals, and open dialogue. The kind of space where something real can happen, without pressure, without pretense.

Come as you are.
Leave more connected.

🪷 July 26–27
📍 Floresta Encantada, Sintra

Time to join us again in Sintra 🌸💛

Spring is the time to shake off stagnation, awaken vitality, and embrace the sense of growth and possibility that the new season brings.

Katrin will share Thai Massage as a practice of reciprocity, in tune with the energy of Spring. Through rhythmic movements, gentle stretches, and mindful touch, we will awaken vitality, fostering a sense of renewal and flow - nourishing both ourselves and others in the spirit of the season.

Then flow with Johanna through an invigorating-yet-calming Yoga practice to stimulate and clear your passageways of energy through all sides of the body and develop flexibility - like a cobra shedding its winter skin for the season of transformation. The practice will involve held yin yoga poses and myofascial release techniques with lateral stretches and gentle twists to support respiratory and digestive function and promote emotional balance.

Spring is the season to renew our vitality - an ideal time to revitalise your body with a Liver detox, paving the way for a lighter, more energetic state. Hayley’s gentle acupuncture enhances your Liver’s natural detoxification, cleansing both body and mind from within.

We can help people change the narrative of the stories that dictate their lives, from a story of pain to a story of health. Let’s understand the different types of pain, and the role of body awareness and movement in managing and preventing chronic pain.
​
Why does this matter? Yoga can empower us to understand our suffering (what really triggers it), but also our ability to respond in a more cohesive way.
​
This workshop is for Yoga teachers, movement facilitators and bodyworkers, as well as Yogis who are interested in this topic for their own practice. We will take a closer look at:
🌟 the neurology of pain
🌟 the different types of pain
🌟 how chronic pain develops
🌟 the relationship between chronic pain and trauma
🌟 the impact of our modern lifestyle on our bodies

This workshop is part theory, part practice. After gaining an understanding of chronic pain and the underlying stories involved, you will be guided through a practice that might support people in their healing process. You will gain the tools and principles to:
🌟 foster interoception and proprioception
🌟 explore available movement in the body
🌟 regulate the nervous system
🌟 create effortless movement in your postures
🌟 release diaphragmatic tension in support of the healing processes
🌟 strengthen the tissues
🌟 create a safe and invitational practice space

PAY WHAT YOU CAN You pay a €10 deposit to secure your place, and at the end of the workshop any additional amount you find appropriate (normal price 35€)

This one is for all the Yoga teachers amongst you. If you are interested in a more therapeutic and trauma-informed approach to teaching Yoga, The Language of the Body could be for you.

You love teaching yoga and find joy in guiding others through their practice. Yet, you may sometimes feel uncertain or underprepared when it comes to supporting individuals living with chronic conditions, persistent pain, or anxiety. One of the core reasons you chose to become a yoga teacher was to help people enhance their quality of life. You envisioned creating inclusive, welcoming spaces where everyone feels they belong, regardless of their abilities or challenges. Perhaps you even feel a calling to specialise your teaching in this direction, offering classes that are truly therapeutic and accessible to all.
​
In this 60h accredited training course you will gain an understanding, techniques and tools to help you support people during their individual healing process.

Join me for a FREE orientation call on Zoom, this Friday (10th Jan) at 19h. You can sign up here - https://app.acuityscheduling.com/schedule.php?owner=20336387&appointmentType=20218415

Dear LYS Community. As we enter into the holiday season that touches many people's lives, Hanukah, Kwanzaa, Christmas, Yule, among others, we wanted to take time to just wish you deep care and nourishment.

Even when you don't share in the traditions or religious practices, when so many people are celebrating, it impacts us. And, it can help to shine our hearts, and it can also trigger feelings of disconnection or loneliness.

Whatever is true for you, we wanted to take this moment to send love and care to you.

During the Somatic Toolkit for a Resilient Nervous System training we will explore themes around boundaries, the body-mind connection, nervous system regulation, co-regulation, trauma, safety and inclusivity, embodiment and resilience.

There are no quick fixes to the systemic issues we all face, but during this training you will have the opportunity to develop your own personal Somatic Toolkit to resource from, as well as use with your clients. Our hope is that you will feel deeply nourished by new insights, practices and skills, real connection and community, and being in an authentic space of exploration.​

It’s all about being nourished. It’s your turn. Allow yourself to receive, learn and practice. Let us hold space for you for a change.
​
We all know how beneficial it is to take some time out from the daily routine; it’s a gift to yourself that will give back to you many times over. This week offers a space for you to immerse yourself in nature, be held in a deeply nourishing space and learning environment, and to make heartfelt connections with like-minded professionals. And who doesn’t like having healthy wholesome food appear as if by magic?
eu and I are both experienced retreat facilitators with 100+ retreats between us and a combined experience of 50+ years of somatic practice and enquiry.
