November, 2018

Buenos Días,

I have just landed back from what was an amazing (exhausting, challenging and extremely inspiring) Rocket yoga teacher training in the beautiful city of Barcelona. This means I have lots of new party tricks to share with you all, so I cant wait for our classes and for a busy month of retreats!

In October I shared with you my excitement about the yoga rucksacks and retreat duffel bags - these have gone back to the factory for final touches and hopefully will come back looking good to go go.

Feedback on 'Assist Your Asana' was positive so I have uploaded a new one for you - take a look below, and if there is a particular asana that leaves you puzzled let me know and I will add that one onto Decembers newsletter.

The rest of this email provides an update on our Retreat availability, a new class for you Londoners and some overwhelming news...

We were chosen and featured in The Guardians review of the '20 Best Yoga Holidays' - but don't let them be the judge, come and experience a Retreat for yourself ( read the full article here ).

Retreats

I am bursting at the seams with excitement and energy for our November Retreats.

We have our retreat at The Barns in just a weeks time, 8 ^th – 11 ^th and then we are back at Melmerby Hall later in the month, 22 ^nd – 25 ^th . We do have one shared room available for each of these long weekends so if you are interested please don’t hesitate to get in touch!

Don’t shoot the messenger… but it is somehow nearly 2019 and I have several Retreats already in the diary for you (and already filling up), I will share information below and as always any questions you know where I am.

27th January and 2nd February 2019.

Chalet L'Ours, Morzine.

I have just three rooms left to share with you for this Winter Week in Morzine and I honestly can't quite express how excited I am to hold a space where yoga, skiing and spa treatments can all come together!

7 yoga classes
5 evening stretch & meditation classes
Private Ski Transfers to & from the slopes

10th to the 13th January 2019 .

Melmerby Hall, The Rowley Estate.

Now I am a little biased but I really do favour this time of year for a retreat. And it seems most of you agree, just like last year I may need to add another weekend to the calendar as we only have four spaces left. If you would like to know more about this weekend or would like to hear about other possible dates then please get in touch.

Prices start at £440, this includes:

6 yoga classes
All meals and snacks - courtesy of the delicious Elspeth's Kitchen
Luxury accommodation in a beautiful setting
Beauty & Spa Treatments, as extra

19th to the 25th May 2019

Borgo La Casa, Tuscany.

We are delighted to share our third retreat in beautiful Tuscany with you, this is second home for Elspeth who learnt a great deal of her magic at culinary school in Florence and it’s a venue we are extremely grateful to host from.

You can expect all the fun, enthusiasm and energy of last year plus hopefully a little more sunshine as the week falls slightly earlier.

Prices start at £730, this includes;

7 yoga classes
5 stretch and meditation classes
10+ fitness classes
All meals and snacks - courtesy of the delicious Elspeth's Kitchen
Luxury accommodation in a beautiful setting
Beauty & Spa Treatments, as extra

It is an active week - but don't be put off, all classes are optional and the venue is situated perfectly for day trips to many beautiful cities. Plus we will arrange a vineyard tour and tasting from our wonderful friend and sommelier Tom De'Vries.. If all of the above sounds exhausting there is a lovely pool and always the opportunity to book a spa treatment.

Assist Your Asana

Warrior 1 or Virabhadrasana 1 is probably the first posture you get to in class that starts to give you a bit of grief - and thats the intention. This posture is designed to work the body and warm you up for your practice. and strengthen the body; from your ankles, through your knees and thighs, to your back, your core and your shoulders and arms. It not only opens the hips and improves your balance but opens the chest and the heart to improve your respiratory mobility and function.

I have shared a few points that will help ensure you aren't twisting through your back knee or placing excessive strain into your lower back - I think these are the most commonly seen bad habits.

Benefits

1) Strengthen; from your ankles, through your knees and thighs, to your back, your core and finally your shoulders and arms.

2) Stretches into the back hip and improves your balance in a split stance.

3) Opens the front of the body; the chest and the heart space. This improves your bodies ability to produce respiratory movements and therefore its function.

As I expressed at the start of this newsletter I am buzzing to be back from Barcelona and full of new sequences and to share with you, so if you wish to know more about any of Novembers classes then please get in touch.

I look forward to welcoming those of you who are booked onto this months Retreats, and do remember to pre book your Spa Treatments if you would like to be guaranteed some TLC.

With Love,

Jess.
