Yoga Classes at Body Mind Spirit Wellbeing:
Body Mind Spirit Wellbeing is excited to incorporate the expertise of Susan Ansell for our new yoga service that has been successfully running since the beginning of 2014. Yoga and massage have a perfect synergy to help us all reach our wellness and maintain our happiness. Both work on many levels for our overall wellbeing, be it to physically improve our flexibility and range of motion, to help us breathe more deeply and correctly, or to relax the mind from day to day stresses...
About Susan
There are many different types of yoga out there and yoga means many things to different people. For me yoga is an opportunity to link to my whole self. Yoga can join all the parts of us (body, breath and mind) to enable us to be our full potential. It is about freedom to move – not just your body but also freedom from all the non-useful things that clutter your mind and stop you from feeling joy. But it is a very individual experience and it is up to you what you want to experience from a yoga class – it can be anything from developing strength and flexibility to connecting to your inner-self.
I teach a traditional form of yoga linked way back to the early 1900’s in Tibet and India (when yoga styles had not been given a market value yet!). I am a fully certified yoga teacher through the Sannidhi of Krishnamacharya Yoga (http://www.sky-yoga.net/). This involved four years of intensive yoga study and before this 20 years of practicing various different types of yoga.
Each weekly yoga class is carefully constructed to meet the individual needs of the people in the class and provide a stepped process over each term. We use many yoga tools such as Asana (body postures), Pranayama (breathing techniques), Chant and Relaxation. The class is open to beginners to those more experienced at yoga. Doing yoga in a group is a great opportunity to share, laugh and learn together.
Anyone can do yoga you do not need to be flexible, there are no religious associations – you just need to be able to breathe!
