SAT 24TH APRIL 2010: FUNDAMENTALS OF PRANAYAMA with DEBBIE FRASER-LEWIS. 11-2pm. £18.
Learn the basic building blocks of Yogic breathing techniques. Knowing where to start with your own pranayama practice or how to introduce this vast topic to your classes can be daunting. Debbie will provide you with a basic structured approach based on Gitananda pranayama (as taught by Phillip Xerri in his BWY Pranayama Module). Suitable for all. Excellent for suffers of asthma & other respiratory problems.
SAT 29TH MAY 2010: ASHTANGA & YIN & YANG YOGA with GRANVILLE COUSINS: 10-4pm. £35.
Granville will teach Ashtanga yogasana in the morning session and Yin Yoga with a Flying Dragon Yang sequence for the afternoon session. Granville is a yoga teacher with over 30 years experience of different forms of yoga including Iyengar, Ashtanga and Yin Yoga. During this period he has been very fortunate to have studied personally with Mr. B. K. S. Iyengar, Derek Ireland, David Swenson and other eminent teaches both in the world of Ashtanga and Hatha Yoga. His teaching reflects this and challenges both our ideas and methods of practice and understanding. Through the method of yogAsana and meditation he is now developing a more softer and fluid approach to asana. Being more relaxed and softer during
asana enables the energy to flow through the channels more freely and does not strain the muscles, tendons and joints. Although this is still a challenging way of yoga, the benefits can immediately be experienced and an enjoyment of our yoga accompanies our Sadhana.

SAT 26TH JUNE 2010: SUMMER SOLSTICE YOGA with SUSAN JOHNSON: 10-4pm. £35.
Susan Johnson has been a BWY teacher since 1991. In 2002 Susan wrote the popular Relaxation book ‘Thirty Paths to Stillness’, which immediately became an indispensable resource for many yoga teachers. Following this success, she went on to write the Thirty Paths Companion Set of 3 more books: Peace, Silence and Meditate as well as releasing a CD of the original Thirty Paths and a Yoga Students Handbook. For the Summer Solstice workshop, Susan will be leading us through Earth Salutations, Sun and Moon Asanas and Pranayama, Heart Mudras and Meditation before finishing with one of her famous Yoga Nidra deep relaxations.
