Yoga workshops are led by Karen Stamper, a qualified Iyengar yoga teacher and a practitioner with 14 years teaching experience.
All abilities are welcomed in our yoga sessions which work on several levels. Iyengar yoga consists of a series of postures, tailored to different levels of fitness.
There will be a relaxing morning yoga class each day with opportunities and facilities for additional practice if you wish.
Poses (asanas) are held for a few minutes to stretch out aches and stiffness, align joints, calm the nervous system, tone muscles, build stamina and develop emotional and physical strength. All which lead to deep relaxation. Karen’s patient and calm approach will soon increase your flexibility and confidence to try more advanced poses.
Iyengar yoga is non competitive. It includes standing, sitting and lying postures. Using props such as blocks, straps and bolsters even complete beginners will find this an excellent introduction to yoga.
“Thanks for a brilliant week. I thought that the classes were run with the right mixture of precision and humour. It was not only highly instructive but really invigorating.Yoga to stretch the body and delicious food to tantalize the taste buds”
The combination of art, yoga, sunshine, good company and delicious food will soon energize your body and mind and leave you feeling inspired and truly relaxed.
