Hatha Yoga

STRENGTH AND RECEPTIVITY
Class on Mondays at 7.30-8.45pm at 'The Yard', Burland, Nantwich. All are welcome!

Dynamic Hatha Yoga

These classes are for Every Body. Adapt your practice to how is suited to you. We use dynamic posture and breath as the core of the practice with some time for relaxation/integration and meditation to finish.

'Hatha' is for balancing receptivity with strength. It unites the polarities. Yoga is not about achieving the most extreme version of a posture to obtain a perfect-looking pose. Rather it is about what FEELS good, for you.  We work with uniting movement with breath so the two become seamless and supportive of each other.  We are strength and softness together.


Yoga as simply participating
Most activities we do in life are goal-orientated. I think it's important to remember that when we practice yoga, we're simply participating in a body & breath relationship. Then any sense of 'striving' towards a goal of self-improvement can drop away. We can be here, now without obsessing in our mind that we must be somewhere else, or in an even deeper forward bend! When we practice in this way, yoga, breath-work and meditation are happening all together. This feels nice!! And perhaps you have a goal of self-improvement which you are striving towards... well paradoxically you may 'achieve' it.
Yoga as Prayer
When each gesture in yoga is done with presence and awareness, it becomes like a prayer. A way honouring Life. Whether that is honouring your own heart, the Earth, the air we breathe, the life we've been given, our loved ones, Jesus or Buddha. It is not religion, but it connects us with Love. And when we are connected to Love, to Life, to Ourself.... It feels nice!! And we can then relate better with others.
