with Chandra Mauli & Julie Preston, co-founders of YOGAbelfast
The programme includes 2 daily yoga classes suited to beginners, intermediate and more advanced students, helping to increase flexibility, and encourage relaxation. In addition, time will be taken to explore the practice of meditation, benefiting from the stillness of Yuva. You will learn the basics of meditation so that you can establish a regular practice to take away with you.
Chandra
has taught yoga and meditation for more than 30 years, mainly
within the Sivananda Yoga organization, directing centres in New York
and Canada. Originally from the UK, his students appreciate his
light, caring and encouraging approach. His classes at Yuva over 7
years have been highly acclaimed.
Julie
has been practicing yoga for over 13
years. She completed her initial yoga teacher training in India,
following an
ancient system where the students live, study and work intensively
with their teachers. For Julie yoga is a way of life and, through her
teaching, she loves sharing the energy, vitality and positive outlook
yoga has brought her
Beginners:
Chandra and Julie offer an easy entry to the world of yoga. Gentle
postures are interspersed with lots of deep breathing and relaxation.
You do not have to be flexible to start yoga.
On the contrary, most
people start with rather stiff bodies. Flexibility comes gradually
with the regular practice which these classes help to establish.
Intermediates and Advanced: If you have an established yoga
practice, these
classes will offer the chance to build upon this, establishing
stronger and more challenging postures. Focus will be given to
alignment, breath and controlled movement. The time spent holding
postures will gradually be increased, maximising the benefits on all
levels.
