UK: Loving Yoga – A Day-long Retreat at Special Yoga Centre in London with Mimi Kuo-Deemer
London | Sunday, January 16, 2011
Mimi Kuo-Deemer is leading a day-long “Loving Yoga” Retreat at The Special Yoga Centre in London.
“When we set aside time for ourselves outside normal, daily routines, it becomes more possible to slow down, reflect, and begin to approach many things with greater patience and personal insight. When we do this on our Yoga mats, this helps us to gradually nudge open the door to a practice that ultimately is about love, which, in the words of the Yoga Teacher Erich Schiffmann, “is the ability to recognize that which is real”. ”
This day-long retreat will be an occasion to approach your Yoga practice from a slower, more attentive perspective – with a whole day at our disposal, there will be plenty of time to spend feeling how different practices resonate for you, and take time to experience a fuller spectrum of Yoga’s delights. You’ll also be able to receive more personal attention in specific postures, and work outside the confines of the usual class structure. Throughout the day, we will spend some good time on our Yoga mats practicing refreshing vinyasa flow as well as deeply restorative Yoga Poses. We will also work with the power of intentions (great for the New Year!), meditation, and personal reflection. It will be a day to celebrate the joys of Yoga and the love it can help us feel and appreciate.
All levels welcome.
