RETURN TO CENTRE: SUMMER YOGA WORKSHOPS with TSUTOMU YONASHIRO & LISA POLLARD (9 & 10 July)

Experience a summer yoga weekend with 2 great yoga teachers!

The workshops are a great way to learn the fundamentals of a rejuvenating, balanced practice – one where you could integrate into your daily practice at home!

Start your day with the Introduction to Ashtanga workshop with Tsutomu Yonashiro 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 Lisa Pollard Yoga and Meditation Teacher, 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. The restorative focus of this workshop will not only work on your deep connecting tissues, but also to help heal the body and mind. 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. (www.lisapollard.com)
