SOUND BATH – The power of pyramids with Nicola *limited availability
Using sound as a form of healing dates back to ancient cultures from as early as ancient Egyptian, Greek, Chinese and Mayan civilisations, just to name a few.
If humans are made of 60/70% water and sound moves 4 x times faster through water than air, it’s reasonable to understand the impact sound vibrations can have on our bodies – on a physical and energetic level.
Join us for this super special SOUND BATH under copper framed pyramids.
The pairing of copper pyramids, gongs and crystal bowls creates a sonic meditation that is designed to enhance altered states of consciousness, allowing you to move beyond the physical and awaken an expansive inner journey while deeply relaxing the parasympathetic nervous system.
included:
• A super sonic sound bath
• Two copper frame pyramids, 6ft and 8ft
• Third Eye gong for visions, Earth Sound Creation gong for deep grounding and altered states of consciousness
• Short information on pyramid geometry, the amplifier of energy
An energetic hip mobility and opening workshop that will focus on all areas around the hips including the groin, hip flexors and glutes allowing for greater range of movement and freedom in the hip joints.
We will work on strength through glute activation , flexibility were we hold certain poses for longer and also a strong focus on mobility and range of movement in the hip joint.
In this workshop we will aim to have fun moving and at times explore moving in a non linear way enjoying a sense of freedom and playfulness.
Aina will start the workshop with a short guided meditation followed by a slow warm up sequence in order to prepare the hip area.
You will be guided through carefully constructed and creative yoga sequences and that will increase mobility and rotation. We will also be working on longer holds in certain poses and stretches in order to support opening as well as strengthening our hip areas.
This will prepare us for a bit of playtime with arm balances and peak poses that will feel more accessible once the hips are more mobile and open.
Examples of arm balances that we will explore are :
eka pada Galavasana, Maksikanagasana/Dragonfly, Astavakrasana, Bujapidasana,Tittibasana, Koundinyasana
In the last part of the workshop we will gradually slow down from the energetic practise and explore softening and longer holds in asanas. This will allow you to gradually go a little deeper with a more meditative and therapeutic way of practise sending you off to a blissful well deserved Savasana

Saturday 13th May CACAO CEREMONY with Carlos & Michelle
We are pleased to have Carlos Mundalah and Michelle Mayoora joining us for their Magical Cacao Ceremony, with over 7 years and 250 ceremonies of facilitation experience.
Based on traditional mexican ritual, the ceremony starts by receiving an energetic cleanse, and opening of timespace. The intention is to accompany the participants through a profound personal process. In a circle, we share a special and unique mexican cacao from the Lacandona jungle, fermented for 10 days.
Accompanied by live medicine music, we go deep into meditation with our inner child, bringing forgiveness and love to ourselves, to then express and expand it in a conscious dance called Danzawa. Our goal is to connect further with our spirit and nature, awakening love and personal power, embracing as a community our higher purpose.
