Saturday 10th: 10:00 – 12:00
Master Class on Twisting & Core (50€)
This workshop will blend twisting poses with intelligent core work to build strength, stability, and fluidity along the spine. You will awaken your core while supporting the muscles that support your posture and ring out toxicity in your bodies and mind. The result is a calmer, more stable energy that creates a space for a quieting pranayama practice at the end.
This workshop will include standing and seated twists with targeted core activation. This workshop is for practitioners wanting to strengthen their core and understand how to twist safely and supported. Twisting postures can build strength from the inside out while keeping the body supported, open, and transformed!
Saturday 10th: 13:30 – 16:30
Unraveling the neck and shoulders and quieting our nervous system (90€)
Our necks are designed for movement and to look around at our environment, however, because of their flexibility, it is common for deep tension to be stored in this region. Our shoulder girdle helps to support our neck and when this area awakens it can unlock deep tension and bring balance to the entire body. This workshop will gently unravel tension in the neck and shoulders while guiding the nervous system towards a quieter and more settled state. Through slow mindful movement and supportive poses, you will release habitual holding patterns and reconnect with a sense of ease and steadiness. You will leave feeling lighter, calmer, and more regulated in your nervous system through the use of asana and restorative yoga.
Special price for full Saturday: 120€
Sunday 11th: 10:00 – 12:00
Master Class Unraveling our Psoas (50€)
Our psoas is known as the “Seat of Our Soul” and sits in the core of our body, connecting the upper half of our body to the lower half. This muscle is both a physical stabilizer and messenger of the nervous system. When it is centered and balanced, we move in a more centered and fluid way. This practice will emphasize a gradual release through a slow supportive practice that will help guide you towards releasing held tension in this region while cultivating a sense of stability and groundness. If you have tight hips, lower back discomfort, or postural strain, this healing practice can help you find balance and ease!
Sunday 11th: 13:30 – 16:30

We will work into more advanced backbends in a safe and progressive way, helping you to understand how to access these challenging and invigorating poses. Backbends can offer a great sense of spaciousness when approached in a supported and grounded way and leave you feeling opened and transformed.

Each retreat will be a day to practice, study, share food and slow down. We will explore different teachings from the Gita, bringing them off the page and into our own experience, on the mat and beyond.
Every date will have its own theme and can be attended independently. Those joining the full series will have the opportunity to follow the conversation as it develops through all four retreats.

Yoga workshop series – a journey into stability, connection & transformation
Sophie offers a series of three immersive workshops, which may be booked individually or as a package.

- Calm & stable in an uncertain world (24th October from 3-5pm)
Release tension. Regulate your nervous system. Cultivate inner steadiness.
In this first workshop, we explore how yoga helps us to manage stress and anxiety, and how to establish a calm, tranquil mind even when life feels challenging.

This workshop focuses on understanding who you are beneath conditioning and patterns. Through regular yoga practice, we learn to perceive more clearly, trust our intuition more, and make conscious and aligned decisions.

Practice includes:
- Yoga philosophy
- Asana, focussing on backbends and lateral poses
- Bandhas to collect and contain prana
- Extended inhalation and enlivening pranayama
- Relaxation and guided meditation

Practice includes:
- Yoga philosophy
- Asanas applying bandha, mudra, mantra and breath retention
- Purification of energy centres (chakras)
