Iyengar yoga workshop with Claire Ferry

Join Claire for a workshop with a bit more time to delve into your practice.

This is aimed at existing yoga students who are fairly fit without health issues requiring many modifications. You might be a fairly new student (6 months or so), a regular Iyengar yoga practitioner, trainee or teacher, or a 200hr teacher from another background looking for ongoing learning.

It is useful to be familiar with the Iyengar yoga method and the use of props but not necessary - you are welcome from other yoga system backgrounds. We usually include headstand and shoulderstand in the practice for those learning or deepening their understanding of inversions but alternatives are given if these are not suitable for you at the moment.

For those in the Iyengar system it will be a suite of Level 1 & Level 2 asanas, and maybe the occasional one from Level 3 too.

This time: activity and awareness - how we approach finding "effortless effort" and inspiration as we move into spring with standing poses and inversions to get the sap rising!

Book online through the Maitri Studio portal, £30.

Contact Claire if you have any questions or are unsure whether this is suitable for you. Just ask if you need a concessionary rate if money is tight.

This is part of a workshop series running (mostly) once a month, usually 10.30am-1pm:

• 26th April
• 31st May
• 6th July

Note no workshop in February as we have visiting teacher Eileen Cameron workshop here
