- what's on at shanti -
deep rest : yin & nidra
slow, passive, soothing
A peaceful evening of mindful meditation, soothing yin yoga and deep guided relaxation.
Yin is a slow, and passive introspective practice that works with time and gravity rather than effort to target the deeper connective tissues of the body and bring about a sense of calm and deep release to both the body and mind.
We’ll close with spiced chai, tasty treats and wholesome chats.
NEXT EVENT: 7-9pm Fri 30th Oct & Fri 27th Nov

ashtanga basics
an intro for newcomers
Kay will guide you through a breakdown of the Primary Series, taking time to explain each posture and its purpose so you can build a solid, sustainable foundation right from the start.
Expect plenty of modifications and options to suit different bodies and ability levels, along with lots of space for questions.
This workshop is designed to demystify the practice and help you feel confident and supported as you begin your journey.
Whether you're brand new to Ashtanga or have dabbled and want to solidify your basics, this is a relaxed, welcoming and inclusive introduction.
Perfect for beginners - no prior Ashtanga experience necessary.

ultimate melt : deep release
An extended, slightly more dynamic version of Miranda's popular MELT class - 90 minutes of movement and self-massage using FAMO balls to support fascial health, ease, glide, connection and exploration.
We'll begin with more dynamic movement, working through the body to wake up and nourish the fascial system, before gradually slowing down. Using the FAMO balls for self-massage, we'll restore the tissue, releasing restriction and finding space, ease and connection.
This longer format gives us time to properly explore - moving from active, elastic movement into deep, yielding release - so you leave feeling spacious, unwound and restored and curious for more!
NEXT EVENT: 10 - 11:30am Sun 15th November
