‘Tis the season to be... extra grateful, rather overwhelmed and very excited for what is to come.

The last twelve months have flown by and they have been quite a whirlwind. I wanted to say a huge thank you to each and everyone of you who has been part of this year. I absolutely love what I do and I would like to emphasise that not a single booking goes by unnoticed, so wether you have joined me for a one off yoga class or you have been on several retreats - I appreciate your contribution to what I feel very privileged to call work.

Retreats

Goodness we have had a busy month... A wonderful 38 of you joined us for weekend Retreats throughout November and it was an absolute pleasure; we visited The Barns in Hereford for the first time (and will certainly be going back), plus we returned to one of our all time favourite venues - Melmerby Hall, Penrith.

A few of you left feedback that you would like to see a slightly longer UK break. So I would like to ask those of you who have previously joined us or those who are thinking about joining us for a weekend retreat in the future...

If we were to host a 5 day Retreat would you be interested and what would suit you best?

Assist Your Asana

Warrior 2 or Virabhadrasana 2

This posture is designed to fire up the body, ready you for practice and improve your stamina.

It opens and strengthens across your chest, hips and thighs, whilst also elongating and supporting the spine. It is a fierce pose that sends your gaze forwards in order to encourage focus.

I have shared a few points that will help ensure you aren't giving either knee any trouble or wearing your shoulders at your ears.

Benefits

1) Strengthen; not only the lower limb but also the chest, shoulders and spinal column.

2) Works and improves the proprioception in the ankles as you strive to avoid rolling them, it also strengthens the knee joints and supporting tissues.

2) Stretches and opens across your chest, and between the shoulder blades / upper back improving respiratory function and spinal mobility. Opens into the hips releasing tension of the often over loaded lower back.

I hope you find time for yourself and your practice during what can be a pretty hectic month. Even if your regular classes take a hit guys try your best to find just 10 minutes here and there, roll out your mat at home and bust some shapes!

If I don't see you in class this month then make sure you enjoy the fabulous food, the festive fun and the wonderful celebrations that come with this time of year.

with extra love

Jess.
