Join renowned Iyengar Yoga Teacher, Rachel Lovegrove on a restorative weekend retreat in the New Forest, Hampshire. Rachel has been hosting sell-out retreats for 20 years, both in the UK and abroad and is a senior level instructor with a passion and love for the art which has taken her all over the world to teach.
This retreat is aimed at regular yoga practitioners who have been taking classes for at least 6 months or more. The theme is "restorative" where we will explore the art of letting go by using supported poses and pranayama as well as exploring philosophical themes to help us reflect, quieten and calm the mind, heal the body.
Over the weekend, we will study a full range of asana but from the view point of going deeper inwards. The weekend is not suitable for beginners, but those with a regular practice and knowledge of using props, are very welcome. Modifications will be given for any medical or health issues, so all abilities are welcome to join.
Rachel is a highly experience Yoga Therapy teacher as well as a Senior Level Instructor of Iyengar Yoga. You will be warmly welcomed to work at your own pace so that you get the most out of your weekend retreat.
