YOGA Ashtanga Yoga with Stewart Richmond Ashtanga yoga is a dynamic breath-led practice which links postures together as a flowing (vinyasa) meditation. Introduced to the West by Sri K. Pattabhi Jois, ashtanga yoga is traditionally an early morning practice. Ashtanga yoga complements other forms of exercise by helping to release tight muscles, improv-ing flexibility and preventing injury. It also enhances mental well-being, helping practitioners cope better with life's challenges.

Stewart offers ashtanga yoga lessons for beginners and improvers at various venues across North and East Yorkshire, including York Yoga Studio. A doctor of Health Science, having conducted several clinical trials of alternative and integrative therapies, Stewart brings a direct but warm and supportive approach to his teaching. Dru Yoga with Chrissy Chelinski Dru Yoga is a graceful and accessible form of yoga based on flowing movements and directed breathing and visualisation. With its foundations set firmly in ancient yogic tradition, Dru ( from the Sanskrit dhruva meaning still and unchanging , traditionally the name given to the North Star, represents the still spacious point within us, the Dhruvakasha ) works on body, mind and spirit - improving strength and flexibility, creating core stability, balancing the chakras...

...building a heightened feeling of positivity and deeply relaxing and rejuvenating your whole be-ing. Dru Yoga is at its most potent when prac-ticed outdoors in nature - so Beulah is the per-fect place to make this discovery for yourself.

Flow Yoga with Rachel Gosling This year Rachel will be leading a flow class at Beulah. Flow is generally seen as flowing from one asana (posture) to another, using the breath, but it is also seeking movement and ex-pression within the asana. In this introductory flow class, we will be experimenting and feeling movement creatively and intuitively to find your o w n u n i q u e a n d i n n e r f l o w . Rachel Gosling from In The Flow is a yoga teacher as well as a lover of dance, movement and life. Rachel has always been a "mover" but found her full expression through yoga, as she recovered from physical and mental dis-ease. Yoga not only became a therapy to wellness, it also became a re-discovery of her true nature. Hatha Yoga with Bridget Rowan Hatha Yoga is the combination of asanas (postures) pranayama (breathing techniques) & deep relaxation/ meditation to create a balance & wellbeing in the body, mind & prana (life force). Hatha yoga is a powerful tool for self-transformation. It asks us to bring our attention to our breath, which helps us to still the fluctua-tions of the mind and be more present in the un-folding of each moment. It is accessible to all...

...Bridget Rowan has been practising yoga for over 20 years and teaching for 13 years. Her yoga roots fol-low the traditional lineage of Bihar (Hatha) yoga but she also deeply connects to Mother Earth & Moon Cycles & follows the Celtic traditions of our land & brings these influences into her classes.

Iyengar Yoga with Debbie Rosenberg Iyengar Yoga, named after and developed by B. K. S. Iyengar, is a form of Hatha Yoga that has an empha-sis on detail, precision and alignment in the perfor-mance of posture (asana) and breath control (pranayama). The development of strength, mobility and stability is gained through the asanas.

Debbie has been teaching Iyengar Yoga for Yoga for 14 years and practicing for 21 years. She holds the introductory Iyengar Yoga teaching certificate.

The gentle somatic movements release chronically tight mus-cles, resulting from desk work and using electronic devices, stress, anxiety, accident or emotional trauma – the hazards of busy western lifestyles.
