Into The Heart - Yoga & Shitasu Workshop for Gay, Bi & Queer Men
Tickets Off Sale
In this afternoon workshop we'll begin with an opening circle, welcoming ourselves and the other men into the space. Tom will offer an accessible and therapeutic yoga practice where we start slowly, with deep stretches and restorative postures so that our bodies begin to speak the language of spontaneity and intuitive movement; breathing, softening, listening. We will playfully use the wooden sticks (rakus) to come home to yourself through various methods of deep self massage. We will end this part of the workshop with a Yoga Nidra, a relaxing meditation, exploring the space between waking and dreaming. This is done lying down, in a comfortable position.
Andy will lead us in a guided partner shiatsu massage. Simple, effective and easy to follow techniques will be demonstrated that enable you to give and receive much needed healing touch in pairs. Working the energy lines/meridians of the body, restoring the nervous system to a restful, calm and connected state.Often in the city we can be easily distracted, our attention scattered and we may find ourselves in a vigilant, alert state of stress and anxiety.This workshop will support your body and mind to find balance again, bringing you into the centre of your experience where you are more focused, aware and connected, to yourself and the other men around you.
Please note this is a clothed workshop and is suitable for anyone who can sit, kneel and stand. If you have any queries please contact us on yogawithandyandtom@gmail.com
