A precious chance to slow down and to soften with Norman Blair one of the most experienced Yin teachers in UK.
- £40 -
Yin yoga is a meditative practice. The emphasis is on staying in 'shapes' for significant periods of time. Stillness and attention are prioritised above ‘achieving’ a pose.
This three-hour Yin yoga workshop is a precious chance to slow down and to soften. Norman Blair is one of the most experienced Yin teachers in UK and he has been teaching these workshops since 2003. This practice of mindfully bending and gently moving can be remarkably rejuvenating for our body-mind-heart. Yin yoga gives us the space to slow down and stay with our experiences rather than always rushing and striving to achieve. The floor-based postures are held for several minutes.
* We have a few concessionary rate places (£20). If you would like one of these, please get in touch - studio@orangeyoga.co.uk
