IYA Antaranga Yoga With Dr. Vinayachandra BK, Dr. Anuradha Choudry & Gabi Gillessen.<\/h2>\n

A 3-day intensive practical philosophy workshop.<\/h4>\n

Irish Yoga Association in association with Ritambhara Yogashala presents a 3-day intensive practical philosophy workshop “Antaranga Yoga.” An Exploration Through Sutra, Mantra & Asana. Friday 26th June \u2013 Sunday 28th June 2020. The Intensive will start on Friday 26th June at 10h00 and will conclude on Sunday the 28th June at 18h00.<\/p>\n

The Yogasutra of Patanjali offers us a profound source of insight into the workings of our psyche. In addition to the philosophy of Yoga, it lays out a rich and detailed manual of pragmatic and practical wisdom that one can use for one\u2019s inner development. These insights and practices cover a whole range from external to internal. The internal forms the core teaching of the Yogasutras, called as Antaranga Yoga, which informs us about the inner faculties and their transformation. Pratyahara is that critical link that connects the exterior practices i.e. Bahiranga Yoga including Yama, Niyama, Asana and Pranayama with Antaranga Yoga. This 3 \u2013 day workshop intends to explore the components and practices of Antaranga Yoga starting with Pratyahara through Sutra, Mantra and Asana.<\/p>\n

Venue: Root-to-Light Yoga Space, Tullamore. Cost: \u20ac220 for 3 days, \u20ac180 for 2 days, \u20ac90 for 1 day. Reduced rate available if a deposit of \u20ac80 (non refundable) is received before 30th March 2020. Read more >><\/a><\/p>\n

IYA Pranayama Workshop CPD with Christophe Mouze<\/h2>\n

Saturday 10th September Dublin, Sunday 11th September Galway<\/h3>\n

\u201cThus being established in asana and having control (of the body), taking a balanced diet; pranayama should be practiced according to the instructions of the guru.\u201d Hathayogapradipika Chapter 2 Verse 1.<\/i><\/p>\n

Gurus are not that easy to come across these days but, the IYA are delighted to invite a very experienced yoga teacher and dedicated pranayama practitioner Christophe Mouze to give a Continuous Professional Development day (CPD) on pranayama this September in Dublin and Galway.<\/p>\n

We are all aware of the various pranayama practices but if we are honest we do not always practice them that regularly if at all. With this in mind Christophe has suggested that when we start this workshop we pretend to be beginners and he will pace the content depending on the ability of the group. Rather than try and pack all the practices in to one week-end we can take our time to become acquainted again with the aspects of each individual technique at our own pace.<\/p>\n

The IYA would envisage Christophe visiting the IYA over time to cover all the practices.<\/p>\n

Saturday<\/b> 10th September 2016, Bloomfield\/Quaker Hall, Stocking Lane, Rathfarnham, Dublin<\/b>.<\/p>\n

Sunday<\/b> 11 September 2016, An Seomra Yoga, 2 Small Crane Sq, Sea Road, Galway<\/b>
\nTime:<\/b> 9.30am \u2013 4 pm
\nLunch:<\/b> Only tea\/coffee facilities are available. Christophe recommends keeping lunch very light when practicing pranayama, e.g. bringing a light vegetarian salad or some fruit to share.
\nEquipment:<\/b> Mat, blocks, rug and layered clothing.
\nCost:<\/b> \u20ac65 IYA members; \u20ac70 non-members.

SATURDAY MORNING<\/b><\/p>\n

7am\u20148am<\/b><\/p>\n

Meditation with Elena Agarkova. <\/b><\/p>\n

\u201cSmile, breathe and go slowly\u201d. Exploring how the simple act of breathing in and
\nout can be a genuine source of nourishment, healing and inner peace. Students
\nwill be guided through a series of gentle mindful movements followed by a guided
\nmeditation<\/p>\n

Jala Neti & Pranayama with Monique Walsh. <\/b><\/p>\n

Jala Neti is an ancient yogic cleansing practice. A small neti pot with warm
\nsalted water is used to wash out the nasal passages. This helps to clear the
\nsinuses, leaving the head clear, aiding concentration and helping to balance the
\nnervous system. Some breath work and visualisation will follow.<\/p>\n

8am\u20149am Breakfast<\/b><\/p>\n

9.30am\u201411.30am YOGA CLASSES<\/b><\/p>\n

Yoga 1. Yoga Moments with Adrienne Crowe.<\/p>\n

With an open mind, we can explore many ways to bring yoga moments into
\neveryday situations. While data is loading on a computer, take the time to
\nstretch shoulders and spine; while the kettle is coming to the boil, some
\n\u201cDesperate Dan\u201d shoulder shrugs; while stuck in traffic, lateral movements of
\nfingers. Slip from the rollercoaster of life into the eternal presence of
\npeaceful mind between one breath and another<\/p>\n

Yoga 2. A somatic approach to Yoga with Katherine Smits. <\/b><\/p>\n

The somatic approach allows us to explore and open to the internal sensations
\nand feelings in our bodies, as the body responds and organises itself during a
\nseries of postures. We work slowly with focus and ease. Through alignment,
