Sometimes in Yoga we come to the mat with a mindset of wanting to master a pose, sometimes there is a calling to the mat that is spiritual. In my teaching and indeed my own practice it is the joyful awareness of each minute change in my body, my breath travelling deeper into parts of my body that previously lay still. Conscious awareness of my own presence within the boundary of my physical and metaphysical body.
My teaching offering is a mix of classes designed to help you on your own journey through life. Tuesday’s 10am class is based on strength. Getting strong in the physical and mental body to be able to sit still in meditation. In this class I also break down poses alot more than other classes. This online class is the opportunity to come to the mat and really learn how your body moves.
Wednesday evening is quite a special class. To be able to practice yoga watching the sunset over Dublin bay is a real treat. The best way to enjoy this class is to be warm at the start, so wear your coat, a hat, keep your warm socks on and please bring a blanket. A warm drink is always a good idea also. This class is a flowing class bringing movement and meditation together. From this week I will have a floral circle with me. You are invited to join me, write down your worries anything that is troubling you. Attach it to the floral circle we will then remove them and burn them. This is a powerful healing ritual that will allow you to release grief, anger hurt or resentment. Allowing you to create space for love.
Thursday 7pm online is WindDown yoga. This is a yin style class. You will need to bring props to your practice space. Taking time to use pillows, blankets, maybe even do the class on your bed. Light a candle, burn some incense. Slowly unfurling into each pose and spending about 5 minutes in each pose, this class aims to ignite your parasympathetic nervous system. Not familiar with this? Read this article. Basically you are inviting calm, peace and love into your own body.
Saturday 11am Park Yoga at Herbert Park. The most beautiful outdoor space to practice. I set up beside a large oak tree, she shelters us from rain, protects us from the strongest sun shine and is a great nesting spot for chats after class. This is a Vinyasa class. It’s the class that brings it all together. So if you come along Tuesday you learn a specific pose chances are it will be in the Saturday class that week.
