Taking Support

  • Sakura Sanctuary 1422 Maungatautari Road Maungatautari, Waikato, 3494 New Zealand (map)

With Jane and Gwen

Yoga is a relational journey, an exploration of our relationship with ourselves, others and the world at large. In modern times, where self-sufficiency and self-autonomy seem to be the buzzwords, we often forget our relational nature and in so doing we turn away from reaching out and taking the support we so need. Many of us have the tendency to help others before helping and supporting ourselves.

In this workshop we will explore yoga with supportive props. We’ll practice finding new pathways of support, connectivity and stability. We will learn how a support based practice can truly help us find ease & strength in our asana practice, and how we can utilise these practices to support us in every day life.

Come and take support in this wonderful exploration of relational essence.

The workshop will include:

- a 2 hour asana yoga practice themed around Core & Support, exploring the use of props.

- a 2 hour Restorative practice including a Yoga Nidra.
