SCHEDULE
WELCOME IN WELLNESS
LAUGHTER YOGA
A playful way to reconnect to the inner child, see life less seriously and cultivate joy. Elements of play, improv theatre and breathing techniques will leave you smiling from ear to ear. Although a bit uncomfortable at first until we break the habitual patterns of taking life too seriously.
AERIAL YOGA
Aerial Yoga combines yoga techniques of breath, alignment, flow and mindfulness. Each participant has their own silk to work from, and the suspended yoga hammock acts as an assistive device during various yoga positions to allow for greater range of movement (including some inversions).
SHAMANIC WISDOM WORKSHOP
Learn how to tap into the unseen world of animal symbolism and nature totems for guidance and insight. This workshop will contain theory & practical exercises, as well as a spirit guide meditation, oracle card readings and a Hatha yoga session. Join us in the re-discovery of this ancient wisdom.
HATHA VINYASA YOGA
This class covers the fundamentals of correct postural alignment to each yoga asana. Once these are mastered, we then take it up a notch and move into a seamless 'flow' connecting each posture to another while linking that to our breath.
This is great for beginners and intermediate yoga practitioners looking for tips to improve their personal yoga practice. You shall leave the session knowing how to self-correct and self-adjust with accessible modifications as well as connecting deeply to your mind-body awareness
ENERGY HEALING
A non-contact combination of Mystical Healing™ and Reiki™ chakra alignment healing techniques that remove all energetic and physical blocks to your wellbeing, success and flourishing mental and physical health.
KINAESTHETIC™ THERAPY
A Body-based emotional release therapy where we delve into the world of emotion and its impact within your psyche, break and release old patterns, negative karmic cycles and heal past emotional wounds. The outcome being self-authenticity, healing, self-love and an increased capacity of choice-based freedom.
Other activities include; Opening & Closing Ceremonies • Cacao Ceremony •
Floating Meditation • Sunset Dhow Cruise •Aerial Acrobatics and more...
VINYASA + YIN YOGA
We shall move through a seamless flow of postures, connecting breath to movement and working up a sweat. This ‘yang’ style vinyasa practice will pump up your heart rate and give you the benefits of detoxing the organs and improving circulation while improving the functioning of the cardiovascular system. The class will then slow down into a Yin practice allowing us to get silent and still, while we tap into the fascia (body’s connective tissue) and release trauma, stress and blocked emotions from a cellular level.
This practice shall be accompanied by carefully curated musical soundtracks to create depth and safe space in order to go within, explore and connect with our intuition, breath and body.
MEDITATIVE MOVEMENT
Guided movement meditation - flowing through a series of simple movements and noticing the novelty in each breath and move, thereby cultivating curiosity , awareness and gratitude.
Gentle stretching of the body and the mind.
STRESS & RESILIENCE WORKSHOP
Learn about the effects of stress on the mind & body as well as valuable tools on building resiliency in times of stress. We will cover an in-depth understanding on how the brain, adrenal glands and hormones are impacted and learn techniques to turn on the body’s rest & digest response.
INJURY PREVENTION WORKSHOP
Learn about common yoga injuries, how to modify poses commonly used in yoga classes that can create injury if done incorrectly repetitively and how to use the breath as your ultimate guide to a long and joyous movement practice.
ARM BALANCE WORKSHOP
Do you like to play? Do you like to try new things? Do you find that sometimes being upside-down is actually the right way up? This workshop is for you. We’ll start with a warm-up that focuses on wrists, core and shoulders, then we’ll try a few standing balances before moving into arm balances. During the session we’ll experiment with different ways of coming into the poses, and have time to practice the trickier ones. Expect some tumbles and lots of laughter.
GET INTO THE SPLITS WORKSHOP
Learn how to effectively warm up your hamstrings, adductors, psoas and hips
to safely get into the splits. You will also learn how to spot and de-activate any negative self-talk or thinking that brings blocks to exploring Hanumanasana. The workshop is designed for intermediate and advanced yoga practitioners, although even if you are a complete beginner, there will be valuable tools and skills there for you.

HULA HOOP CREATION & FLOW WORKSHOP
Hula Hooping is actually an ancient art-form dating back since the beginning of time, most known among the First Nation/Native American culture. Hula Hoop Flow combines hip flexibility, core strength, dynamic movement, and improve dance. Students will explore their own creativity while practicing specific hula hoop skills to the beat and rhythm of music. Most exciting: Participants will have the opportunity to select and decorate their own custom hula hoop to take home for keeps!
HATHA & HEADWRAPPING
Master the fundamentals of Headwrap Styling & Hatha Yoga through a Goddess-centered workshop infused with self-love celebrating Woman's Day everywhere! Please bring your own headscarf and hand-held mirror, yoga mat and your sense of adventure.
SUP YOGA (STAND UP PADDLE BOARD)
Take your yoga out onto the sea! Doing yoga on a surface that’s constantly in motion uses muscles you don’t often feel, and adds a different dimension to poses you may have done countless times on land. Your balance changes and perhaps your sense of humour too. SUP yoga has a playful element and falling in is part of the fun. And nothing beats savasana lying on a SUP rocking gently on the sea.
DIVINATION, SPIRITUAL COACHING & ENERGY HEALING
Combining the ancient arts of Energy Healing and Divination, this workshop gives you access to the tools of magic & mystery schools.
You will learn how to work with the energy body in order to heal or align blocked chakras & remove/dissolve energetic chords/attachments to people/places/memories that no longer serve your highest good. You will also get a personalized tarot & oracle card reading helping you gain clarity and understanding into any guidance you may be seeking.
