One of the aims of Hatha Yoga is to expand, direct & contain the prana within. This is done through a variety of techniques, particularly, the Bandhas.

This workshop will provide simple, effective, practical and powerful ways to learn the 3 main bandhas: Jalandhara Bandha (chin lock), Uddiyana Bandha (abdominal lock) and Moolabandha (root lock). You will learn how to do each bandha separately, how to link them with the breath, how they are used in asana and how to do all three locks simultaneously (Maha Bandha & Maha Mudra).

This workshop is for students with shoulder issues to help you understand the anatomy of the shoulders, to learn about common shoulder issues, to practice yoga therapy techniques to relieve pain and instability in the shoulders and to explore alternative poses and ways to practice when you are attending a yoga class.

The morning will consist of gentle yoga, movement, restorative postures, breathing practices, meditation and chanting with Ginny Clarke, all encompassed with live guitar with Richard Turner.

Expect to move in unison as the power of music weaves through the room and through our hearts, bringing us back home to the stillness and love living within.

Yoga, Vedanta, Buddhism and many other spiritual traditions highlight the benefits on Non-attachment and its necessity for freedom. They speak to ways in which Non-attachment catapults the seeker of truth towards the Goal of liberation. They leave us in no doubt about the benefits of a fully involved life free from attachment to outcomes, free from attachment to pleasure, just plain old freer.

Join us at Living Peace for Kirtan with Hanuman Das, Ginny, and Richard. Enjoy a beautiful evening of live music, chanting, meditation and spiritual discussion.
