‘The Breath of Life’ Full Practice with Sama Fabian
These practices focus on breath as the means to initiate authentic movement and develop an awareness of the gestures that, empowered by breath will reveal asana. In accessing these deeper layers we come in touch with patterns of resistance and learn to release them. The practice integrates different aspects of the available Yoga spectrum to accommodate the group’s needs and level of aspiration. For practitioners with some experience of any style of Yoga.
‘As we understand movement we come in touch with stillness, as we explore sound we recognize the power of silence’ SF
All ‘Breath of Life’ practices will now take place at Sama and Tanya’s Home in Plumstead SE18
Next practice Sunday 12 September 10am-2pm £40/35
Please contact Sama for registration and address. Note that there are only 8 places in the studio, book early to avoid disappointment. samyoga@btinternet.com

Yoga and Sacred Sound August 27-29
Weekend in Zurich, Switzerland
with Sama Fabian and Tanya Syed
In this workshop we offer an integrated journey through the body’s power points, moving from deep chest openings and spinal releases to a profound and reflective exploration of sound. We focus on resonance and deep listening to find our natural ability to move energy and create space in the body. The practice is woven around a sensitive and comprehensive practice of pranayama and asana.
Information and registration Cristina Golland go.c.world@gmail.com
Sacred Sound practice with Tanya Syed
Eastbourne House, Top Floor (the London Buddhist Arts Center). Bullards Place, E2 OPT
September 7 to October 12 every Tuesday 6.30-8.30pm £15 per session or £75 for the course
In awakening the listening body we reconnect with the healing and transformational power of sound, silence and mantra, ‘the thought that liberates’
Here the vehicle for our journey through the physical and subtle pathways of the body is our voice. Attention to the breath increases self-observation and encourages a deep listening. At times we invite simple gestures to accompany the rhythm of sound. Building resonance is the core of this yogic practice. This practice forms a support for voice work, chanting, singing, meditation, pranayama and the healing and energetic arts.
We recommend that you book for the full course but sessions can also be taken individually
For further information and bookings please contact Tanya tanya.syed@btinternet.com
