Now booking Saturday 26th April! Yoga retreat 10-1pm

​This month's theme is " Maintaining a Healthy Spine". We have only one spine to last our lifetime and moving it daily, in the 6 directions available to it can help to promote its health. Not only that, when we have ease of movement in our spine we can sit, stand and move more comfortably. Come and enjoy practices to develop safe ranges of movement of your spine and promote its healthy longevity!
​
To me all of life is a question of balance and that is where the balance of flow yoga and restorative yoga can help us to learn more about our approach to life and how we can best promote a helpful balance physically, mentally and emotionally. “The nervous system holds the key to the body’s incredible potential to heal itself.” David Bercelli.

The first half of each of the yoga retreats is a flow practice with statically held asana ( postures) very much led by the breath. The second half will include a little somatic practice and yin and restorative yoga, also with focus on the breath, leaving you refreshed, restored and revitalised.

There will be a short break when teas and healthy snacks are provided.  If, like me you enjoy coffee, then have some before you come…intentionally I don’t provide it in the break, as from my own experience, it does not facilitate a more restful, relaxed state which is what is cultivated in the second half.

I have a couple of bolsters I can hire out for £5 and if you don’t have one and do not wish to hire, then a pillow wrapped in a bath towel is perfectly fine. I have a few yoga blocks and blankets available.

Last year I had some problems receiving  emails so I apologise if you did not receive a response. Please can I ask if you dion’t receive a response within 2 days, then please contact me by phone 07905113415, either ring on WhatsApp, or send me a message on WhatsApp, to make your booking. Places are restricted to a max of 15 and your payment secures your place .

As with all prices rising, including the hire of the church hall, regrettably the retreat prices for 2025 reflect these. The huge bonus here is that the heating is absolutely fantastic… toasty!

NOTE
Covid safety measures fully in place. Risks have been assessed and numbers reduced to ensure social distancing measures are in place.

Please read a review from student who attended on 17th October, the gap between lockdowns.

“I have been going to Jane’s Saturday workshops for a few years and I cannot recommend highly enough. To be honest , I was concerned about the last workshop.....not about the virus as I had no doubt Jane would stick to the rules...but more about whether the “ chill out / feeling etc” would be the same. I can honestly say that not only did Jane reassure as by following the government guidelines, but also we all left with the same feeling. Wonderfully relaxed... and that has always been the point for me in attending Jane’ s workshops. Roll on the next one!”
