For those who need to escape a highly stressful working environment, allowing all your competitive tendencies to truly subside. In this mindful approach to yoga there are no demanding physical movements or positions, just a combination of mindful, restorative and Yin based yoga approaches.
Under the guidance of yoga experts, the Deeply Relaxing Yoga Experience Day is an opportunity to learn: What is yoga? Why do yoga? Who can do yoga? When to do yoga? You will also be introduced to basic breathing techniques, basic foundation postures and basic mediation techniques. The approach encourages both passive and active elements within a yoga practice.
This is reflected in the structure of the retreats, meaning teachers will teach one active/dynamic yoga class and one passive class. The retreat is designed to provide those who are new to yoga with an informative and considered approach that introduces the basics of yoga practice such as correct breathing, functional movement and mindfulness. It is also suitable for those wishing to engage in a gentle movement based yoga practice.
