Forrest Yoga with Deepa 

Deepa doing a forearm downward dog
This is a strong, Hatha based practice. Forrest Yoga (named after Ana Forrest) is an evolving yoga method. During a time where we are surrounded by constant distraction, a need for quick fixes and more and more screen-time, Forrest Yoga guides you back into feeling and paying attention.  

With poses held for anywhere between 5-12 breaths, you will build strength and learn to stay attentive to what comes up mentally, physically, emotionally, spiritually.  You are taught to practice without pushing and risking injury and instead, to move with integrity. 

You will practice deep breathing, to help enable you to stay present and with your experience.  
 
Things to expect, which are unique to Forrest Yoga: 
  • Each class will start with an intent to focus on throughout. For example, to bring our best quality of attention to our breath. Or, to breathe into an area of discomfort.
  • You will get warm and build some sweat - depending on the climate the room may be heated.
  • We practice specific abdominal exercises, not to build a six-pack, but to help bring awareness into our core and to get us out of our heads and into feeling.
  • Poses can be held for anywhere from 5-12 breaths.

Pregnancy Yoga with Deepa 

Deepa assisting a pregnant woman in a lunging twist
This pregnancy yoga class can help to optimise better positioning of baby, reduce stress, improve digestion, increase comfort in pregnancy, and with more ease in labor and postpartum recovery, and a deeper bond between parent and baby.

This is an active class, where you will practice breathing in a way that helps make more space for internal organs and for baby. This kind of optimal breath can also help prevent excess pressure on the pelvic floor, which often leads to back pain, pelvic pain and pelvic floor problems during pregnancy and post-birth. You will practice using the feet, legs and core in an integrated way to support you through all the physical, emotional and spiritual changes that occur during pregnancy, labour and post-birth. As you move through some more challenging poses, you learn to soften rather than harden through the intensity. This allows you to respond more intelligently and resourcefully, conserving more energy for yourself and baby. 

This class is based on the principles of the Poppy Yoga approach (Breath, Align, Support, Soften).  Please visit www.poppy.yoga for more information.

Kids Yoga Classes with ​Martina

Martina blowing soap bubbles
A fun, creative and safe environment for younger children to engage in group activities with their peers. Yoga for children is a wonderful asset to their growth and development. A holistic learning time, which cultivates patience, compassion and respect for the self, one another and all living beings.
 
We explore the body’s natural movements through yoga, so that we can increase our strength and flexibility. We discover how to relax our mind and look after our emotions. We unearth our innate creativity through crafts and stories. We learn how to improve our concentration, how to respect and embrace our differences and bond over our similarities.
 
There will be high-energy times and quiet times; musical times and inventive times; laughing times, sharing times and concentrating times. All of that and more will be our yoga time, together. Yay!

Morning Breathing Practice with Katrin / Morgendliches Atmen mit Katrin

morgendliches atmen
Breathing to help you regulate the nervous system. With exercises drawing from self-massage, Qi Gong and Yoga we first free up the diaphragm, chest, neck and jaw, so we can then practice our breathing for 10-15 minutes with more ease. With the breathing techniques we stimulate the ventral aspect of the Vagus nerve, which amongst other things is responsible for the regulation of the bronchi. The healing process of many conditions involving breathing difficulties can be supported with a regular practice. In addition we boost the immune system. Each lesson we focus on a different breathing exercise, which can also be easily done by yourself. 

More about Katrin 

Atmen zum Regulieren des Nervensystems. Mit Übungen aus der Selbstmassage, dem Qi Gong und dem Yoga machen wir erst das Zwerchfell, den Brustkorb, den Nacken und den Kiefer frei, um dann im Anschluss für 10-15 Minuten zu atmen. Hier stimulieren wir den ventralen Aspekt des Nervus Vagus, welcher unter anderem für die Feinregulation der Bronchien verantwortlich ist. Bei vielen mit Atembeschwerden verbundenen Krankheiten, kann mit regelmäßigem Üben, der Heilungsprozess positiv unterstützt werden. Ausserdem stärken wir das Immunsystem. Jedes mal lernt ihr eine andere Atemtechnik, die auch gut zum Selbermachen geeignet ist.​
