Welcome to the news about of Earth & Water retreat in September.
Earth and Water Retreat 19th – 23rd September 2010
Boswedden house, Cornwall, UK
Sophie and Peter invite you to Earth & Water retreat – an experimental work that brings themes of self exploration on land into the warm water therapy pool. Helping us to perceive the connection between breath, mind and body- between our fluid nature and our groundedness.
In fact Earth & Water is not a traditional Yoga retreat… though you will be lead daily through Yoga asana & pranayama practice. Nor is it a Watsu retreat, though you will receive therapy session from a qualified Watsu therapist. It is so much more….
This retreat is an exploration of the fusion of in-water movement and Yoga on land.
The fluidity of water brings creativity and interactivity.
The traditional hatha yoga asanas will be the structure supported by gravity.
On this retreat, we ll go back and forth between earth element and water element, to experiment the boundaries of body and movement, with a touch of playfulness.
Daily meditations & pranayama will bind all together the insight of this retreat: our awareness to the present, our sensitivity & the delight of being earth and water.
This retreat is for innovative and open minded practitioners of yoga, dancers and all lovers of water and movement.
Some experience in yoga classes and the ability to swim and be in water will required on this course. This is an experimental course it is non competitive and is not considered advanced though it will be in depth.
The yoga practice on land will be traditional alignment based postures aimed at balancing the nervous system.
The Watsu & water dance sessions will beautifully complement the deeper balancing quality of the retreat.
Interactive dancing & asanas in water will be opportunities to explore our fluid nature & expansiveness.
