Saturday 19th July

20% off for Space To Breathe Unlimited Members

When the body softens and sources earth moving with the direction of gravity, there arises in equal measure a radiant and expansive tone engendering body as sky.

To practice yoga involves working not only with gravity’s pull to the centre but with its opposite - soft, radiant expansion that embodies space. This interplay results in soft, fluid strength expressed as integration.

This workshop spotlights the interrelationship between body, gravity and expansion.

All are welcome - 1 year of yoga practice recommended. The workshop may include active and Restorative postures as well as meditation using props to amplify and sustain experience.Anna has been studying and practicing yoga for over 30 years and teaching for over 20. As a senior teacher and trainer in the UK, she holds the highest level of certification with Yoga Alliance Professionals in the UK (SYT) and the Yoga Alliance in the U.S. (E-RYT-500 + YACEP).

She curates a practice that respects the yoga tradition while innovating to meet the times. As an experienced teacher and trainer, her manner is friendly, inclusive and instructive. Anna endeavours to support a process of deepening self-knowledge through embodied practice and enquiry that express the essence of yoga as awareness. 

She also specialises in Restorative Yoga, a modern style that supports nervous system health through the healing effects of deep relaxation, breath and present moment awareness. Her book, Restorative Yoga: Power Presence Practice for Teachers and Trainees, released in March 2022, has become the ‘go to’ book for teachers and practitioners serving as an in-depth guide for those interested in the Restorative arts.
