In this session we will explore various breathing techniques, meditation and yoga nidra (guided visualisation and deep-relaxation) to bring about a deep experience of connectedness with the very subtlest layers of our being. especially beneficial to those who have had a strongly Asana focused practice, or those who have stressful lives, and are not familiar with Yoga Nidra. (It is blissful!)

More About Intouch Yoga Retreats with Flo

All students, whatever their reasons for joining the retreat, will appreciate this precious opportunity to withdraw from responsibility and look within. Setting a firm foundation of fastidiously correct alignment in the Asanas, we will sharpen our focus of the here and now. From this point of clearer mental focus, we will begin to understand the relationships between the physical body, the breath, and the workings of the mind. We will be developing the ability to change our state of mind and energy level by working with Pranayama (yogic breathing techniques) and meditation.

All of us, by building progressively subtler body-awareness, will experience a deeper understanding of ourselves.

To Beginners

Taking their first steps on the path of yoga, this retreat offers an invaluable opportunity to begin from a firm foundation. Developing a clear understanding of how to work correctly may be saving years of misguided practice and possible injury. Commit to learning well, from a specialist at picking up individual peculiarities.

For Intermediate to Advanced level students and teachers

Flo extends her invitation to build a deeper awareness of the subtle biomechanics of the body than ever before. Her energetic and inspirational approach will increase your enthusiasm and love of yoga.
