Clients have commented on her kind, caring, intuitive and professional approach being truly reflected within her practice.

Yoga and Organ Meridians: a Workshop with Paula Charnley.
2016-03-12 14:00
Saturday 12th of March 2016, 14:00-16:30 – £20
In this workshop we will explore yoga postures from the perspective of Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM), particularly the 5 elements theory. All phenomenon of the universe can be described within the 5 elements: Water, Wood, Fire, Earth and Metal including our physical body, emotions and the effect of the changing seasons. As we instinctively strive to stay in balance, internal or external circumstances can throw us off balance.
This interactive workshop offers a broader perspective to your yoga practice & general well being. By understanding the effect for example that grief, anger or anxiety has on our physical body we may be able to direct more compassion there during our yoga practice encouraging the flow of qi (chi) or prana in order to restore balance.
We will explore some useful acupressure points with self massage and playfully create some additional postures along the way
This workshop is open to all levels of practitioner, from beginners to advanced.

Yin Yoga & Live Music with Karen & Siward
2015-09-06 14:27
Sunday 6th of September 2015 – 17:30 to 19:30

Join us for a deeply restorative Yin Yoga class with Karen accompanied by Siward on guitar, flute and harmonium.
Enjoy Yin poses infused with sound, beautiful melodies, and heart melting mantra and bhajans to enhance your yoga practice and open the body to deep healing.
Experience deep release and relaxation during this restorative yoga offering, tailored to calm your mind, and bring you into a deep meditative state.
Yin Yoga allows us to slow down and practice mainly sitting postures that gently work on the connective tissues of the hips, thighs and lower spinal area. These types of postures do not involve the muscles (as in traditional forms of yoga) but they act on the bone and joints areas of the body. Yin postures also act on the energy meridian of the body, refreshing and toning up the digestive, excretory, circulatory and respiratory systems.Yin Yoga focuses on releasing and letting go aiding physical, energetic, mental and emotional flexibility. In this session we delve a little deeper as we let the power of live sounds penetrate within our Self with live music and Mantra. Do not miss this unique experience with Karen and Siward!
Read more about Karen and Siward – Chalisa Yoga:
My yoga path as a practitioner and teacher has been inspired by a wide gamut of styles including Sivananda, Scaraveli, Viniyoga, Qigong and Yin Yoga. Teaching yoga for nearly 10 years to a wide cross section of students from children to students in their 90’s, my classes are a mindful synthesis of both static and flowing postures and sequences that ultimately cultivate healing and deep body/breath awareness.
My passion is Yin Yoga, a profound practice that emphasizes long-held but passive poses which enhance flexibility in the joints and instill lightness and grace in the body.
My partner Siward is a professional musician specialising in guitar, harmonium and flute. Siward has travelled and studied extensively in India and was urged to follow this path with the inner guidance of his guru. We are both practicing Bhakti yogis. The synthesis of Yoga and Mantra opens the body to the breath of the heart and a deep awakening as the ancient sounds penetrate the hard to reach areas of the body namely those closest to the spine allowing us the opportunity for deep healing both physically and emotionally.
Cost: £20

Shoulder technique and inner balance with Peter Roussel
2015-08-16 12:25
Sunday 16th of August 2015 – 11.30 to 14.00 hrs – £25
This inversions workshop offers the chance to learn skilled placement of upper body for powerful application of asana that will enable healing in the nervous system.
The workshop will consist of:
Gentle shoulder warm up and some detailed techniques that make posses light and safe.
Making the upper body action more intelligent by careful placement of arm in relation to the spine will make the feeling of being upside-down lighter. You will feel this in your breathing.
Building strength whilst releasing pressure on the heart will create optimal support for the healing powers of inverted postures to take effect, making you feel taller and more energetic.
This workshop will include handstand, fore-arm balance, head stand (for some), and shoulder stand.
Supported variations available for anyone at anytime, working to your limit is required. We all work at our own pace and this is especially important with inversions, I have plenty tips to get the best out of this practice even if you are not quite upto scratch.
Doing the Saturday workshop would set you up nicely to get the most out of this workshop, but its not essential.
We will end with supported (yin) positions, deep breathing (pranayama) and guided relaxation.
This practice will balance the nervous system deeply and make for a restful Sunday.

‘Ganesh is Fresh!’
Sunday 5th of July 2015, 11.30am-4pm

Through the morning session we will move through a progressive vinyasa sequence that will connect us to the flow of our hearts so that we begin to know ourselves more fully and become more sensitive to our own flow and the flow around us.
The theme will continue in the afternoon with with pranayama, meditation and a guided relaxation.
Expect chanting, mudra’s, mantra’s, meditations and flows together with stories, laughter and heaps of fun!

2015 Yoga Retreat at Samye Ling Buddhist Monastery
2015-06-06 16:07
Yoga retreat at Pureland Retreat Centre – Samye Ling Buddhist Monastery.
From Saturday 6th to 13th of June 2015.
Experience serenity, calm and restoration with Andrew’s annual Yoga retreat set in the grounds of the oldest Buddhist Monastery in Europe. This retreat has been run successfully for about 9 years, and this year extended to a full week.
New for this year, additional evening activities such as Mandala drawing and meditations, candle gazing, Mantra and Prana (energy) work.
Looking out over the River Esk in the peaceful hills of the Scottish borders, ‘Purelands’ at Samye Ling is an ideal setting to inspire, exhilarate and offer time for reflection in our busy lives. The retreat will offer asana, pranayama, meditation and mantra. There will be time and opportunity to walk around the meditation garden, venture up the fairy hill or talk a stroll along the river bank, maybe catching a glimpse of the otters in the unspoiled natural surroundings.
Every morning will be silent as well as one full day of silence (mouna).
Friends are also welcome to observe or participate in the meditations and puja performed in the very colorful traditional Tibetan Buddhist temple.
All accommodation is in basic but comfortable single rooms with three (excellent!) home cooked vegetarian meals a day, drinks available throughout the day.
Price £ 595 which includes all tuition, a single room per person and all meals. Arrival 4 pm, depart 4 pm.
Bookings are now being taken, £150 deposit (non refundable) secures place.
The monastery is about three and half hours drive (from Macclesfield).
Car sharing may be available.
Address: Samye Ling Buddhist Monastery Eskdalemuir Langholm, Dumfriesshire, Scotland
NB this is a yoga retreat not a Buddhist retreat and is open to everyone from beginners to advanced students.

Yoga workshop with Gill Slater - Open Yoga
2015-03-28 14:00
Saturday March 28th 20152pm – 4pm
Unravelling the Belly
A chance to spend some time using your yoga practice, your breath and, maybe even your intuition to soothe away some of the tension, stress and dis-ease that we all hold in our bellies.
In my massage work I am aware of how negative many of us feel about our belly! It’s too big, it’s bloated, it’s really painful and the list goes on….
To place our hands on our bellies is alien as we simply want them to disappear or behave themselves.
If any of this resonates with you please pop along and spend some time simply nurturing this incredible centre of personal power and energy.
Cost: £20
About Gill Slater:
I became interested in yoga during my teenage years. I was 41years old before I returned to yoga.
I spent 9 years being taught Iyengar Yoga by Julie Brown of The Manchester Iyengar Institute. I then chose to move on to an Astanga practice and trained with Brian Cooper.
The strong foundations of Iyengar alignment and then the progressive series of postures and synchronized breathing of Astanga Yoga fed my passion for yoga. Teaching small groups and individuals gave me a better sense of how yoga needed to be adapted so that its benefits could be experience by everyone.
To that end I have attended workshops with Sandra Sabatini who was one of Vanda Scaravelli’s students, and I also found it a delight to be taught by Jenny Beeken and Pauline Sawyer of The Inner Yoga Trust.
My own personal need to experience a strong and emotionally healing yoga practice took me to Forrest Yoga and I completed Ana Forrest’s Foundation Teacher Training in June 2012.
I use my massage/bodywork training to better understand and explain the amazing effects of a yoga practice. I now teach a weekly Forrest Yoga class and two of my own Open Yoga classes.

Surya-Chandra Yoga With Andrew and Francesca in Whittle-le-Woods
2015-03-22 10:00
Join us on Sunday 22nd of March 2015 from 10 to 4 pm for a Special Equinox themed yoga day in lovely Whittle-le-Woods, near Chorley.
SURYA NAMASKAR (SUN SALUTATION) and YIN YOGA with Francesca from 10.30 to 12.45
Enjoy a revitalising practice, bringing the physical and emotional body into balance. Yin Yoga will stimulate the joints and the bones whilst Sun Salutations will energise the muscular system in a powerful blend of action and stillness.
The practice includes chanting the traditional Sun mantras in a dynamic and uplifting sequence, connecting with the body in a moving meditation.
CHANDRA NAMASKAR (MOON SALUTATION) and Inverted Postures with Andrew from 13.45 to 16.00
Andrew will guide you through the Moon sequence. The pacifying nature of the session is ideal to set the mind and the body for being “upside down”.
The class will guide you to experience yourself and your world from a different perspective, working gently on releasing fear and anxiety that are commonly associated with being “upside down”, and embracing the countless benefits coming from an inverted practice.
Please contact Feel Now Yoga for bookings and more information.
