WORKSHOP IN FEB 2020
This 4 weeks Ashtanga Course is dedicated to everyone who wishes to learn and experience the dynamic practice of Ashtanga Yoga.
The primary series of Ashtanga Yoga known as Yoga Chikitsa (Yoga Therapy) was one of the first yoga practices introduced to the students in the west.
During the course, you will become familiar with the unique breathing method practiced in Ashtanga Yoga known as “deep breathing with sound”. You will also learn the other key aspects of Ashtanga which are the Bandhas (energy locks) and Drishti (gazing point) which are an important company to the asana practice.
You can expect to sweat and bend, but most of all, you will learn one of the most powerful practices of yoga, which is often referred to as a mother of all Vinyasa based styles of yoga.
Coming soon in February 2020 ... watch this space to know more.

WORKSHOP IN JAN 2020
1. MOVE
2. CREATE
3. PLAY
MOVE: Movements by themselves do not represent a system, style or trend.
They are already possible based on the unique design as a living being.
When we move with awareness though, grace follows.
CREATE: Do we very often assess movements as 'right' or 'wrong'?
Or do we label our body as 'beginner', 'intermediate', 'advanced'?
If the movements are in congruency with joint mobility and intention, the judgement falls away.
PLAY: Children project the purest form of spontaneous living... free flow and uninhibited until fear is introduced and judgment of 'wrongdoing' is passed.
Why do we program our body to only move in a predictable fixed routine? And why do we resist a trajectory of movements that are not fixed and predictable?
Step into the unknown. ATM uses a technique called pandiculation to release involuntarily muscle contraction.
Chronic pain, tension and various forms of dis-ease are a result of repetitive reinforcement of habitual patterns that are so deeply ingrained that we have accepted as 'norm'.
The techniques used re-educate the nervous system to release chronic muscle tension in an organic way without intrusion, pain and unnecessary strain.
A pain-free body is a happy body for nurturing a healthy mind.
BENEFITS of the practice are a multitude, including:
a) Relief from back/lower back pain
b) Relief from Piriformis syndrome
c) Neck & shoulder release
d) Hip release
e) Hamstring release
f) Relief from TMJ syndrome
g) Full-body relaxation
The entire practice is 'floor based' and participants are reminded to keep their body warm with appropriate clothing.
ATM is organic in nature and does not represent any medical authority or is intended to replace advice from a medical professional.

WORKSHOP IN OCT 2019
Sound Bath is a deeply immersive, full-body listening experience, intentionally using sound
to invite gentle yet powerfully therapeutic and restorative effects to the mind and body.
The sound of a meditation gong induces a state of spontaneous meditation and relaxation,
which facilitates the movement of Chi or Prana (positive life force) throughout the body. On
a physical level, the vibrations eliminate tension, stimulate the circulation and glandular
systems, and regenerate the parasympathetic nervous system. This experience can be
helpful for anyone who wants to access the benefits from meditation or a moment of
relaxation. It can be beneficial to both beginners of meditation and experienced meditators
as you are lulled from a Beta, or awake state, into a Theta, or lucid dream state; a state
that allows our bodies to relax, heal and rejuvenate. The sound waves gently clear
blockages to restore inner harmony. Not only does the mind, emotion and body undergo
stimulation, but the sound purifies and quietens the mind post session – awakening higher
states of consciousness that are conducive to healing and transformation.
Join us for our debut 90-minute Sound Bath event to awaken your full potential through
breath work and energetic movements, while the powerful sound currents of the Earth
Gong open up the portals and vibrate every cell in your body.
Pamela Akasha Kaur (Akashakti) is a KRI Certified Kundalini Yoga and Conscious Pregnancy teacher and a Gong and Reiki Level 2 Practitioner.
In a typical gong bath setting, you lay on a mat with a cushion for support and a blanket over you. Eyes are closed shut and ears are stimulated by the sound of the gong “washing” over you. Within 20 minutes, your brain changes state and the body relaxes. Your body will do what it needs, from sleeping to having visualisations. It is a sound detox with after effects of the sound remaining in the system up to three days. One would need much fresh clean water after- a happy buzz may even be experienced for the following days.

WORKSHOP IN OCT 2019
Through clarity of intention (free from fixations) and an explorative mind, enquiring the 'why', less of the 'how', we deconstruct Asanas through the principles of
groundwork, functionality and 'economy of movement'.
With that the Yogic journey begins – with focus on the following:
Groundwork:
Stability and resilience, spatial awareness, functional anatomy
Objectives:
Primary and secondary focus of a posture
Form vs Functionality
Benefits and counter-indications
The intention is to 'sense and feel' not just the physical, but of how "awareness through movement' can be a source of healing and empowerment.
It is suitable for all practitioners.
About Eddie (a.k.a. Maverick)
Maverick E. encourages a yoga of contemplative exploration. Though physical in part, his practice is ultimately one of the mind and heart. It is a way of questioning. It never fixates. And it moves towards stillness. It is most essentially a yoga of embodied self-reflection. Every movement in a class is developed practically and with attention to detail. Classes are designed with no prerequisites or levels – each class is crafted as an experience. His focus is simple, practical and inquisitive. It points towards one essential question: what does well-being feel like?
Maverick’s technique is grounded in bodyworks, martial arts, practical anatomy, non-sectarian meditation and Somatics. It is an eclectic approach crafted precisely to fit that most eclectic of questions. His intention is to help students establish clear objectives in practice and to inspire them to move closer towards physical and mental well-being.

WORKSHOP IN SEPT - OCT 2019
Bring harmony to each of the 5-elements of Earth, Water, Fire, Air, Space within the body-mind constitution with these flows of postures to move energy along the elemental meridian pathways. This form of yoga is a unique system that integrates the ancient wisdoms of Ayurveda, Traditional Chinese Medicie and Hatha Yoga into a holistic lifestyle practice both on and off the mat.
Elemental Yoga uses gentle, physical postures, mudras, visualizations and affirmations to bring harmony to the 5-elements. When we are constitutionally imbalanced, dis-ease can manifest mentally, emotionally and physically, until realignment of our elemental energies is addressed. This system of yoga empowers the individual to design a specific yoga practice to therapeutically shift imbalances, develop a closer relationship with nature, ultimately leading to a greater awareness of our own inner nature.
Whether you are looking to simply learn yoga, improve strength and flexibility, or to therapeutically address elemental imbalances, these sequences are open to beginners and seasoned practitioners alike.
First in the series: Grounding and belonging: a returning to EARTH
One of the greatest qualities of the EARTH is to provide an impartial, non-judgmental, supportive habitat for countless beings, one that we can call home, a place to belong to in space. Correlating to the Spleen (Yin) and Stomach (Yang) meridians, a balanced EARTH Element invokes qualities of centeredness, awareness, self-satisfaction, boundaries, safety, belonging and self-less giving. When out of balance, one can experience stuck-ness, a fear of being lost, ungrounded-ness, loss of identity, a lack of concentration and being unsympathetic. In this practice, we will stretch and strengthen the Spleen and Stomach meridians through a carefully curated sequence of asanas, as well as utilize mudras, visualizations and affirmations, as a means to bring balance to the EARTH elemental energies within our body/mind complex. This practice is suitable for all levels of practitioners, with a variety of modifications available.

WORKSHOP IN JULY 2019
"Prana is a healing tool. Learn to use it right and unlock the secrets of well being."
Punam
Join Punam in exploring the different facets and the healing qualities of Prana or life force
and how it can benefit your daily living. When you learn the art of breathing correctly, your
breath can help to purify and heal the internal body. It has been scientifically proven by
research institutes, such as Swami Vivekananda Yoga Research Institute, that systematic
deep breathing helps calm the mind by releasing endorphins or what is commonly known
as the “happy hormones”. The manifestation of an illness has been linked to stress and
emotional/mental imbalance and by learning the art of breathing properly, one can
experience mental clarity, a calmer nervous system and a healthier immune system.
Breath, the thread that weaves the fabric of our lives, is also known as Prana, and it is the
only tool that can reach our cells and heal us at the cellular level. It has been scientifically
proven by research institutes, such as Swami Vivekananda Yoga Research Institute, that
systematic deep breathing helps calm the mind by releasing endorphins or what is
commonly known as the “happy hormones”.
Being the only medium that connects with all the energy centres, nerves and organs in the
body, it becomes a very powerful tool to manage and cure psychosomatic ailments.

Workshop in April 2019
Join us with creator of Embodied Dance Movement (EDM), Daniel *Sonic* Rojas, for a 2-hour workshop, in which we will explore the deeper layers of our human form through movement and the Five Elements – Ether or Space, Air, Fire, Water, Earth. EDM brings together different movement cultures including dance, martial arts, yoga and physical conditioning, as well as musicality and emotions. During this series, practitioners will journey from Earth to Space, enhancing their body awareness, developing an intelligent self-practice of conscious movement and exploring embodiment of elemental qualities. Expect transformation from this art form, which will leave you with a deeper understanding of your human form and better alignment of your physical faculties. This series is open to all levels of practitioners from beginners to professional movement enthusiasts. No dance experience is necessary.
EDM is a mindful movement methodology created by Daniel Sonic Rojas from an accumulation of more than 25 years experience as a professional dancer and movement enthusiast, and developed through intense self practice and a deepening journey of experiencing movement in a holistic way. EDM specializes in the foundational understanding of body mechanics so that one can find the rhythm in all movements. Through its integrative approach, EDM dissolves the boundaries between movement cultures with the aim of deepening body awareness, connecting to feeling and developing an intelligent self practice of conscious movement as a foundation for all movers.
The five core principles of EDM include mobility, alignment, strength, feeling and locomotive movement. These principles are explored through isolations, animalistic movements, creative calisthenics, embodiment of emotion and bio-energetic flows between movement and stillness.
Daniel Sonic Rojas is known around the world for his movement creativity and dance mastery. Combining his Latin roots and his experiential journey of many years as a dedicated movement practitioner, Daniel created EDM. Daniel now shares EDM worldwide, including at many popular festivals and dance academies, as well as continues to perform, compete and judge international events and private sessions and immersions. His rich experience includes several World, European and Scandinavian championships, touring for nearly 20 years with reputable, dance companies in Europe, performing in world acclaimed theatre productions, dancing for Queens, Kings and Presidents, and inspiring millions to dance through his performances, competitions, workshops and life story.
