YOGA

This workshop combines two deeply restorative practices: Yin Yoga and Yoga Nidra, designed to release deep tensions, calm the nervous system and promote a state of total relaxation.

Yin Yoga, a passive, meditative practice that works on deep flexibility and the release of connective tissue. We will hold postures on the floor for 3-5 minutes, focusing on breathing and releasing any accumulated tension.

Yoga Nidra, a guided meditation that induces a state of deep relaxation. In a comfortable posture (Savasana), you will follow instructions to move through your body with awareness, visualise images and access a state of deep rest, similar to sleep but with full awareness.

A Jivamukti Yoga class is a dynamic and spiritual practice that combines asana (physical postures), music, mantra chanting, meditation and yogic philosophy. It focuses on the connection between body, mind and spirit, integrating elements of the yoga tradition into an intense and conscious practice.

Sat Atma Kaur will share a full Kundalini Yoga sadhana at the festival, with kundalini yoga we awaken the energy at the base of the spine, known as Kundalini. Including kundalini pranayamas (breathing techniques) to open the energy channels and chakras, dynamic and static asanas, meditation and mantras, experience the connection between your mind, body and spirit!

We will become familiar with the breathing gesture through the practice of pranayama, asana and body awareness.

Do you ever wake up feeling full of motivation and drive, but as the day progresses you find yourself restless or scattered? Or do you sometimes struggle with a sense of heaviness, procrastination or lack of direction?

A nourishing Yin Yoga class that includes gentle breathing exercises and guided meditation.

Yin Yoga helps to relax and de-stress while working the deeper connective tissues, improving flexibility and supporting joint and ligament health.

In each posture, we will explore the body, finding the perfect space to settle into stillness and release stiffness or stagnation without forcing.

Calming breath work (Pranayama) will balance the nervous system, and a short Shavasana meditation will leave you relaxed and ready for a restful sleep.

Rooted in traditional Indian and Chinese principles, Yin Yoga works with Prana (Chi) energy and the channels (Nadis/Meridians) that carry it through the body.

By holding the postures longer, we release stagnant energy, which allows for physical and emotional healing.

This gentle, meditative practice is ideal for beginners and advanced students alike.

Tribal Yoga is a unique experience that fuses yoga, primitive movement, play and group connection. Through the body, we explore our vital energy, awaken our inner strength and immerse ourselves in a state of presence and fluidity.

In this practice, we combine dynamic sequences inspired by yoga and animal flow with partner and group dynamics, creating a space of exploration and belonging. We end with a meditation and a conscious sharing, integrating the experience on a physical, mental and emotional level.

Benefits of Tribal Yoga:

Increases mobility, balance, strength and flexibility.

It releases tension and regulates the nervous system.

It encourages expression, connection and a sense of community.

It allows you to get out of the routine and reconnect with your essence.
