A YOGA CELEBRATION DAY

Sunday 11th June 2017, 10am-6.00pm

I am excited to announce, for the third year running, another YOGA CELEBRATION DAY, with inspirational teachers, which will be taking place all day on Sunday 11th June 2017. Once again, this will be an exciting event with local teachers to celebrate

YOGA with many styles of Yoga classes and taster sessions. Whether you are a yoga teacher, yoga practitioner or new to yoga and curious, come along and try out one class or stay for the whole event and enjoy several sessions hosted by an

experienced group of teachers. It will be fun, relaxed and friendly. Everyone is welcome; men, women, teens…. of all levels.

The event will take place in the fabulous Stockbridge Town Hall, just a few miles outside of Winchester, Andover and Salisbury. Stockbridge, a former market town in Hampshire’s Test Valley, has a wide and attractive High Street, free parking

with lots of shops and cafes. This draws in many who come to enjoy a walk, a snack and a browse among the shops.

All proceeds from this event will be donated to the South Sudan Crisis Appeal Charity - www.christianaid.org.uk/emergencies/south-sudan-crisis

Class Description: Open your heart Vinyasa - A flowing heart opening practice designed to open the chest, release tension in the shoulders and break down some of the layers or Koshas that we build up within the subtle body, ultimately creating space for the heart.

class but modifications and variations will be offered to suit all. Come with a willingness to push the boundaries of your comfort zone and all the benefits are coming your way!

Focusing on the hips and back, this practice will allow you to move deep

and explore your body at your own pace. Although a less physical strenuous yoga style - don't be fooled into thinking it's an 'easy option'... the practice can be intense and challenging for the mind as well as the body.
