- Deeper connection for men through restorative yoga, massage and shiatsu -
Experienced teacher and bodyworker Andy Butterfield brings the popular Brighton workshop to London. (Andy's beloved friend and co-facilitator Tom Cowan, is currently taking a bit of a break from most of his teaching while he completes his degree in Counselling.)
Together we’ll explore the therapeutic nature of yin and restorative yoga and healing Shiatsu touch.
We start slowly, with long deep stretches, balances and restorative asanas so that our bodies begin to speak the language of spontaneity and intuitive movement; breathing, softening, listening.
We play with partner postures that help us move deeply into the heart, deeply into the body & more deeply into the present moment. These are also an opportunity for us to explore other bodies, taking care of each other as we move, breathe and open together.
And then we explore simple, effective and easy to follow shiatsu 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 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.
Bookings are open now priced at £15/£30.
Andy regularly works with organisations including Yoganu, Loving Men, Tantra for Gay Men, Radical Faeries and Queer Spirit Festival to name but a few.
