About the Retreat

Yin Yoga

The intention of yin yoga is to stress tissues in the body we don’t normally get to access in our yang movement (whether that be yoga or other muscular lead movement).

Other intentions might be to remove ‘speed’ from the body, slow down, relax and become more aquanted with our thought patterns and practice mindfulness to access our own inner wisdom.

Yoga Nidra

Yoga nidra is like meditation, but it is not the same. With nidra, you are lying down and the goal is to move into a deep state of conscious awareness. This state involves moving from consciousness while awake to dreaming and then to not-dreaming while remaining awake!

Movement

Often in our minds we link dance with the subjective ideals of beauty, performance, sensuality, an art form, something to gift to others and the World.

It can be, all of these things, but of equal and non-comparable value is the power of dance as a medium of individual expression, a place of freedom, presence and ultimately of joy.

There are many styles and methods of free form dance; yoga dance, chakra dance, ecstatic dance and five rhythms.
