Details about the sessions
Everyone is welcome no previous experience is required, only an openness and willingness to explore some of your limitations and your own way of moving. You will be creating your own positions and movements unique to your body, not specifically related to any specific yoga or dance tradition.

 

In some parts of the session you'll be invited to start from certain positions, lying on the floor, siting, standing etc.  Then encouraged to move and explore from there. The floor will be covered with shiatsu mats that encourage comfortable exploration of the body and use props that enable a more dynamic interaction.

 

Some of the music is specially selected and remixed to a specific speed, this is to facilitate optimal functioning of the heart rate and breaths per minute. Some evenings may also have input from musicians.
