Nourish yourself with this Restorative Yoga and Meditation workshop in West Hampstead. The workshop will include a restorative yoga practice that supports healing and rejuvenation and conscious breathing and meditation practices. Restorative yoga is characterised by yoga postures practised normally supine / lying down, supported by props, and held for up to 15 minutes to allow the body to let go, releasing muscular tension and resulting in a more grounded, centred and relaxed state. It is recommended / useful for everyone. By the end of the workshop you should feel more balanced, grounded, relaxed and rejuvenated.
Price £22. Early bird pricing of £18 when you book before the 20th January.
Event is for all levels. Beginners welcome. All mats / equipment provided but you are welcome to bring your own "sticky" mat if you wish. Changing facilities available in this lovely venue.
As with any any exercise program, if there are any health concerns seek the advice of a medical doctor before practising any yoga poses.

I have been practising and studying yoga for over 10 years and teaching since 2010. As a yoga teacher I am British Wheel of Yoga Certified.
My teaching style is one of emphasis on the breath, healthy alignment, flow of movement, building strength & flexibility, whilst also giving an opportunity for deep relaxation. I aim for all my classes to be open and friendly whilst also being focused. I am very keen in sharing the benefits of private / one on one teaching, having personally seen the depth in my own practise develop following such a setting.
As a yoga teacher I come with 25 years experience of a fast-paced, city working-life and all the pressures, expectations and challenges that this lifestyle brings. I have seen the positives that yoga can bring first hand including supporting improved focus and energy as well as helping alleviate symptoms of stress and supporting improved sleep patterns particularly after long periods of travelling. With a regular practise, I have also significantly benefited from improved posture, flexibility and movement in my body where there were restrictions, particularly following the effects of a severe femur fracture in my 20's and subsequent 12 month recovery period in hospital.
