Post-natal Core Strengthening with Maureen Smith

11.00 - 13.00 Sunday 3rd October 2010 (£20)

This workshop is suitable for women who have not gained core stability. It will be a gentle but effective yoga session to help flatten/tone all four layers of the abdominal wall, therefore supporting the spine, correcting posture and restoring flexibility to relieve backache. Suitable for split abdominal muscles.

Friday 17:30 - 19:30, Saturday 15:00 - 17:30, Sunday 09:00 - 12:00

Friday - The Sleep of Yogis: Chandra Namaskar: Salutations To The Moon: Practice & Ritual

This session, which is both class and ritual, will introduce the esoteric practices and benefits of "Chandra Namaskra" (moon salutations) and its companion practices of Yoga Nidra, Pranamudra, Nadi Shodana and continuous Om chanting. Yoga Nidra has its roots in Tantric practice and is part of a meditative, healing, and conscious dying tradition.

Saturday - Core Strengthening: Asana, Bandhas, Pranayama

In the yogic view, abdominal conditioning and strength are encouraged for their aid in digestion, assimilation, and elimination on all levels of being and for the way this area, once toned, supports proper meditation positions. Many of the exercises found in Pilates have their origin in yoga asana. However, for the most part muscle groups go unacknowledged in yogic text and schools because the principle focus is energetic awareness and self-realization.

Sunday - Deep Flow: Lateral Sequence
sensation, pulsation, inner rhythm

Experience the immediate and profound unwinding of mental and physical tension, the inner wave of subtle energetic movements, the harmonization of the solar (pingala) and lunar (ida) channels, plus, the strengthening and tonifiying of the oblique abdominals and organs. Deep Flow is immensely engaging for all levels of practitioners.
