As March unfolds and we hurtle towards Easter, take some time to slow down with us. Friday evenings are done differently around here with @warwickshiremindfulness this Friday 13th. Relax into calming meditations, breath work and more. Monday morning we'll have our NEW Family Yoga sesh with @wholehogyoga – a session focusing on balance this month. These shorter sessions are especially suited to early years families 2-5yrs. @siangulliveryoga leads a monthly Friday evening class on the 20th, combining various yoga styles designed to free the demands of your week from your body and mind with slow flowing movement – lulling you to the floor with a peaceful and grounding conclusion through yin and/or restorative postures. Kim will be here with her nurturing @thecanopywomenscircle towards the end of the month. A wonderful space for connection and community. Her profile is so worth a follow for all things women's circle and self. And the superb @gill_lewis_holistic_healing brings her gorgeous sound bath and meditation on the 29th. There is always such lovely feedback from her healing sessions, we urge you to come! If you see something you like here – find all the details on our workshops and events page on our website.

LITTLE RETREAT Fancy an afternoon of sanctuary? @siangulliveryoga and @gill_lewis_holistic_healing are really excited to announce the Little Retreat at the studio. This mini retreat is filled with practices that honour all bodies. We’ll be working on supporting nervous system health and regulation, making you feel calm, grounded and cared for. Beginning with a gentle Hatha practice to warm and prepare the body, we’ll then soften into some yin yoga shapes, leading into the cocoon of deep rest and space for the body and mind with some restorative postures. There will be a break for teas and treats and then you’ll settled in for a sound healing session with Gill, a highly skilled and dedicated sound practitioner, who will mindfully build a sound experience that leaves you relaxed and rejuvenated. Date: 6 June Timing: 14:30-18:00 Exchange £55 All welcome, no experience necessary but please note the majority of the practice will be floor based in longer, supported holds. If you have any questions, let us know. Hope you can join us! Details on the website and booking is open now.

“The intention in a Restorative Yoga class is to create an environment of calm, quiet and simplicity that brings about a slowing down of the nervous system through gentle, slow stretches and Restorative postures. The outcome of a practice results in a relaxed, grounded and centred state which supports nervous system heath, alongside a sense of wellbeing, clarity and connection.” Anna Ashby – Restorative Yoga. Power, Presence and Practice for Teachers and Trainees.

This autumn at the studio. Learn to teach Restorative Yoga. A style of yoga, where students can experience stillness and a profound sense of space. “The Restorative ethos invites us to rest in the arms of stillness for a little while. No music. No words. And when the teacher speaks – not from compulsion to fill silent spaces – the words can transmit why silence is golden.” Anna Ashby Join us for two weekends (Friday afternoon into Sunday) for a 33 hour training. The slides show some of Anna’s credentials. But above all Anna is a teacher’s teacher. Highly experienced, insightful, wise and warm. Sian has completed two in-depth trainings and other CPD days with Anna, who is always generous with her knowledge and support. Full details are on the website. And payment plans are available.
