Yogashanti has announced a new series of 6 with 90 minute workshops of Yin yoga and 90 minutes of Yang yoga taught by two certified yoga teachers, Axinja Granier and Kelsey Hopper, at Hariko (1 Dernier Sol, L-2543 Luxembourg-Bonnevoie).
Each workshop will focus on supporting a specific Chakra (energetic center) in the body to help attain overall balance in mind, body, and spirit.
The yoga morning will be followed by a reception with healthy, wholesome, vegan food and drink by personal chef Annabel.
09:00-10:30 Yin Yoga
Soft and slow, most poses are done on the floor. Gravity and time (poses are held 3-5 minutes) help to release deeper into the pose and apply healthy stress to connective tissues, making them stronger, more flexible and increasing circulation in the joints. Yin Yoga balances the meridians (energy channels), releases chronic and long held tensions, as well as negative emotions. Profoundly relaxing on a physical and mental level, it opens up the body on a whole new level.
10:30-12:00 Yang Yoga
In this Vinyasa Flow (breath synchronised movements), we flow like water, going smoothly from one pose to the other. Soft warm-ups prepare the body, energising pranayama (breathing exercises) and invigorating sun salutations heat up, detox and stretch the body. Time is then taken to explore each pose individually, practicing mindfulness and awareness, ending in a brief relaxation at the end.
Energising and refreshing, this will wake up body and mind, oxygenate the blood, stretch and tone the body and relieve stress and tension.
The class is suitable for all levels. Please advise of any injuries beforehand. What to bring: yoga mat, blanket, pillow. If you do not have a mat, they are available to purchase for €30.
Price for all Six Workshops: €210; Price One Workshop: €45 drop in, €40 early bird (payment received 2 weeks before class). To reserve your place, contact Kelsey Hopper at email: KayHop@gmail.com
