New 8 weeks course with Emma starting on Sunday the 12th of October at 7pm-8pm

All Sundays in studio classes except 2nd and 23rd November (optional Zoom class on the 2nd and 23rd November)

This slow yoga class is all about slowing down. Slowing down our movement, our breathing, our minds. In this practice we will work to feel through subtle sensations, listen to our bodies natural rhythm and callings and breathe deeply to release what we no longer need to carry. This practice will through a series of grounding postures focusing on different anatomical areas such as shoulders and neck, hips, back, legs, ensuring we work through the full body to release tension and emotions. This is a safe space for all and all levels are welcomed. There will be various options giving for poses and what is really important is that you listen to your own body and find what feels right for you. This class will hold poses for longer than a typical vinyasa class to encourage deep release of tension and to send our breath to the areas that need to let go. Working with the seasons, autumn and winter are often a time for deep rest and restoration. Just as nature loses its leaves, and sheds, we too shall let go.

Slow down and find space to grow again into the new. Each class may vary but some poses may be repeated.

Cost: 96eur for 8 weeks or 16eur drop-in

About Emma:

I completed my 200 hour yoga training in 2019 at Down Dog Studios in Swords (now Yogahub). I was called to yoga at the young of 14 during as a therapeutic remedy for my mental distress as a teenage. I found this practice as a way to become present, to loosen up my body and therefor my thoughts, and it gave me clarity and connection to myself in a new found way. Since completing my training at 19 in 2019,I have taught classes in Yogahub, online during Covid, and at the Community Well Donabate. Originally trained in hot yoga and vinyasa/hatha, I have since moved into slow flow after experiencing its benefits for health both mentally and physically. I wish to share this practice with you as it brings me peace and it is lovely to do so in community. I am always welcome to feedback and to hear what poses the class would like to try but ultimately I want people to understand that yoga is more than poses. Yoga means union of the self. The poses (asana) are just one part of yoga. Therefore I wish for you to come curious with yourself and know that there is freedom in this class to explore your body movements and breathe and that every pose/suggestion I give is completely optional. Listening to our own bodies is so important and I trust that you will do so. Looking forward to sharing this space, I think it will be really magical coming into the autumn months together, having this Sunday ritual to connect, breath, move and release.
