Yoni Shakti (Yoni = source; Shakti = Universal Feminine life Force Energy)

Womb Yoga is an evolving therapeutic approach developed to support women’s health by Uma Dinsmore-Tuli. It is a term for yoga to nourish every aspect of our lives as women, whether we have a womb, or not, whether we menstruate, or not, and whether we are mothers, maidens, enchantresses or crones!

To practice Womb Yoga is to honour and embrace the original blood wisdom of your womb, or womb space energies, as the source of feminine intuition, connection, creativity and nurture.

​

Hatha Yoga

There’s no experience or toe-touching flexibility required. This more stationery practice will stretch and strengthen your body, wake up your shoulders, lengthen your spine and support your circulation. Breathing meditation and mantras help you unwind and enjoy the stillness in every moment. You’ll walk away feeling centered, focused, and ready to own the day.

​

Hatha Gentle Flow

Hatha Gentle Flow is a bridge between moving in flow and staying stationery. This intense but gentle practice allows plenty of time to feel the body move and concentrate on the breath. Breath and movement are pathways to keep the organs healthy, the joints lubricated and the mind in the present moment.

It equally strengthens and stretches the body, increasing flexibility and repairing muscles. In an atmosphere that is free of competition and comparison. In equilibrium and bliss.

 

Every yoga practice differs according to a specific main focus (e.g. back/shoulders, grounding, heart opening, core, balance etc.) and includes elements of meditation, relaxation and breathing techniques.

​

Yin yoga - 5 Elements

A Yin yoga practice is mostly calm and soothing. Poses are held for 3 to 5 minutes each. It works on all levels of our being, since we  stretch the body along the meridian lines connected to our organs.
Our Yin classes have a focus on the 5 elements as in Traditional Chinese Medicine, where man and nature are seen as a holistic system. These elements complement and balance each other: wood, fire, earth, metal and water.
The balance of Yin and Yang creates harmony and opens the flow of life energy, bringing us back to our center.

Every Yin class is accompanied by the soothing sounds of Tibetan singing bowls. This allows you to dive even deeper into every pose and the silence within you.

 

Restorative yoga

Restorative yoga uses props like blocks, straps, sandbags, bolsters, and blankets to encourage a passive release of mind and body tension. This style works to release deep tension passively, without active stretch.

This is a wonderful way to balance a very active, dynamic lifestyle and is especially recommended on days when your are feeling exhausted and tired. Recommended  also for people with restrictions in their body movement due to age or health.

​

Myofascial Release

Experience a highly effective technique that activates the release of muscle fibers (myo) and connective tissue (fascia) to ease restrictions of movement, tension and pain brought about by excessive sitting, postural habits, imbalanced athletics, emotional stress or injury. It is a type of deep self-massage using small balls and blocks holding each position for 3-5 minutes.

Cultivating active stretch in our connective tissues helps to increase strength an flexibility, improves posture and releases trauma in the body.
