Join Tsutomu Yonashiro and Lisa Pollard for the RETURN TO CENTRE: SUMMER YOGA WORKSHOPS on 9 & 10 July 2016.

Start your day with the Introduction to Ashtanga workshop with well-loved Ashtanga teacher Tsutomu Yonashiro (the main teaching assistant to Nancy Gilgoff in Japan), where you'll learn the fundamentals of the Ashtanga practice, as well as build a solid foundation of the dynamic practice by linking postures (asanas) and the breath. This invigorating and inspiring workshop is open to practitioners of all levels - from someone who is stepping onto the mat for the first time (or in a long time), to an experienced yogi who is looking to deepen their practice.

Ease into the afternoon with a gentle and enriching Yoga and Mindfulness Workshop with yoga and meditation teacher Lisa Pollard, where you'll learn about the importance of mindfulness, and how you are able to embrace it both in your yoga practice and your everyday life. Lisa will guide you through a mindful yoga practice, restorative yoga, and guided mindfulness meditation. Each session will be an inward journey and an unfolding experiential exploration of embodying your practice.

ニセコ 夏 ヨガワークショップ 2016.07.09 ‐2016.07.10

午前中はヨナシロツトム先生とアシュタンガヨガを気軽に楽しく学んでみませんか?

伝統的なアシュタンガですが、ツトム先生のクラスではとてもシンプルに、そしてわかりやすく楽しく教えてくれます。ベーシックなポーズからアシュタンガヨガの流れを学べるクラス内容なので、初心者の方でも、ここ最近ヨガの練習から遠ざかっていた方も気軽に参加できるクラスです。もちろん、基礎的な部分をもう一度詳しく練習したいと思っている方にもお勧めです。

午後からはリサ・ポラード先生の修復ヨガに参加してみませんか？

意識的に体を動かす事をどのようにヨガの練習に役立てるか、また日常の生活の中で役立てて行けるかを学んでいくヨガです。ゆっくりとポーズに入っていくクラスになり、関節などに働きかけるヨガなので、午前中のアシュタンガヨガの後でも十分楽しめるヨガになってます。

ナンシー先生は、1970年代にインドのマイソールで、パタビ・ジョイスのもとでアシュタンガヨガの修行を始め、その後、欧米にアシュタンガヨガを伝えて行った先生のうちの一人です。彼女たちがヨガを広めたことで、現代のヨガコミュニティーがあると言っても過言ではないでしょう。

Nancy began practicing Ashtanga Yoga over forty years ago with Sri K. Pattabhi Jois, in Mysore, India. Nancy now spends much of her time touring the United States, Europe, and Asia, teaching with a view to fostering loving-kindness and to sharing her love and experience of yoga.
