Yoga in Somerset

Yoga in Somerset Creative Yoga: Yoga practice with depth. My speciality is "The yoga poses and their inner meanings". It is very calming, focused and active at the same time.

I have trained with the German spiritual teacher Heinz Grill who regards each pose as a gesture which expresses life's deep truths. Thus the yoga practice becomes a form of artistic expression. CLASSES IN SOMERSET UK:

What I love about this approach to yoga is that it is both health-giving and artistic. We work in quite a detailed way at the individual poses, activating some part of the body and relaxing others. This makes the positions both energising and calming. It also gives them a graceful beauty.

"Contemplating these photos can awaken a warm and meaningful sense of life – even if the poses feel too difficult and you cannot perform them yourself.

It is generally the conscious act of looking at these images that inspires us toward deep inwardness and a contemplative search for truth in life.

Through these photos of Chakrasana (Wheel Pose), we also see the invaluable beauty that unfolds when the movement emerges dynamically straight from the spine."

You will quickly experience various health benefits:
Your spine will become stronger and more flexible and your posture will improve. Your energy levels will increase.

But in addition to the immediate physical and mental benefits, through yoga we can develop a longer-term inner strength that can help us to become more resilient and take charge of our lives. This beginners course will give you a first sense of how this works.

"Giving practical expression to spiritual and philosophical thoughts that have at some time entered into humanity will promote peace." I have been pondering a lot on this idea. How can it be that if I, for example, practise a beautiful yoga asana which expresses a deep spiritual thought, it promotes peace? Perhaps we can already get a notion of this if we feel the stillness that is created in the room during such an activity.

Over the course of the weekend, we will work with a variety of active yoga exercises. You will learn how to stretch and open your body in a free and liberating way.

We will work in a detailed way with the various positions, so that you get a thorough understanding of how to do them.

Regular practice of yoga over a few days can have an astonishing effect on our health. Not only do we become stronger and more flexible, but the entire energy in the body can flow more freely. Our organs and immune system function more efficiently and we feel calm, energised and alert all at once.

Setu bandhasana - the bridge cycle, with halasana and sarvangasana

"An arc spans and connects" writes Heinz Grill. This beautiful sequence of movements flows from halasana, the plough, which digs deep into the earth, via the connecting arc of setu bandhasana, the bridge, to sarvangasana, the shoulderstand, which rises gracefully up from the heart centre like a plant growing towards the light.
