New Moon Yoga and Intention Setting Workshop 

The Sunday of the New Moon, Santosa, 21 Albert St, 6-7.30pm, £18. Book here.

20th October – New Moon in Scorpio

24th November – New Moon in Sagittarius

New Moon in Aquarius (Feb 2019) alter

A yoga and intention setting workshop themed around the energy of the new moon.

This workshop involves a 45 minute yoga practice which will be themed around the energy of Scorpio/Sagittarius so that we can learn how we embody and express this energy in our own mind and body.  The second half of the workshop involves some journaling and setting intentions.
Please bring a little notebook and a pen so that you can write down your intentions. Yoga mats available at the studio but feel free to bring your own.

The beginning of a new cycle of the moon is a naturally reflective time and coming together in a group brings support and power to this practice.  This workshop is part of a process of living with more awareness and intention, cultivating the ways we’d like our life to develop.

I run this workshop with Sara who has run new moon circles in the past.  If you’ve never been to anything like this before we would love for you to attend. And don’t worry – we’re not massive hippies! Just two women who have found that this practice of living intentionally has been beneficial in our own lives, who would love to share this with others.

Winter Solstice Workshop 

Full details coming soon! Saturday in the New Year, Santosa, 21 Albert St, £35.  Book here

I run the Seasonal and New Moon workshops with Sara, who leads the intention setting part.

Winter Solstice – the depths of darkness all around. But the light is beginning to return. Join us to celebrate the new year and all its potential. 

Our yoga practice will be themed around the energy of the season and is a chance to see how you embody this energy, how it feels and presents itself in your life.
We then take time to contemplate, reflect and set intentions for the season to come.
There’s usually a little crafty/creative activity too – yay!
These are very special workshops. There are only 10 spaces available – join us, and start living less out of habit and more out of intent.
Please bring a little notebook and pen to write down your intentions.

Some feedback from people who attended our previous seasonal workshops:
“I absolutely LOVED today! Thank you so much, both of you. I thought the day was really cohesive, balanced and balancing. A total joy!”

“The workshop was just what I needed, it had a great impact on me and over these few days since I have kept returning to it and I really look forward to the next one.”

Sivananda Yoga Masterclass

Saturday 9th November 2019, 10-12noon at Santosa on Albert St, £15. Book here

The Sivananda practice is a set sequence of hatha yoga (meaning we practice the same poses in the same order each time).  We start in savasana, then practice two breathing exercises, sun salutations, and 12 different asanas followed by a long guided relaxation.  The focus is on moving with awareness and breathing deeply. This practice aims to stretch and strengthen, moving the spine in all directions as well as moving the different energies in the body so that you feel balanced by the end – both energised and calm.

Practicing a set sequence can be really rewarding as it helps you see changes in your body and practice since you last did the sequence and practiced particular poses.

Read a blog I wrote for Santosa on the Sivananda practice here.

If you have any questions about any of these workshops I’ll be happy to hear from you. Please email me on joanna@shineonyoga.co.uk
