April- Root to Rise

Our theme of the month this April is a personal favourite of mine! We're looking at the theme of root to rise. Have you ever heard your yoga teacher mention 'building the pose from the ground up'? That's what we're looking at this month.

We can look at this from a physical perspective - by looking at the body parts that are connected to the ground in any particular asana. Take Trikonasana, (triangle pose.) We build this pose from the ground up by looking at the position of the feet, and then work up the body to the inside leg, up to the pelvis, through the spine, up into the chest, and then finally through the arms and head.

We can also look at this from a more philosophical perspective. Are we rooted and confident enough in ourselves to move forwards? Can we be anchored in the present enough that we let the future unfold? We're going to be exploring all of these themes throughout the month.

We're heading off to Ibiza with Yogafit Retreats on the weekend of the 19th, but have recorded classes for you to catch up, and will be joining you live on saturday the 26th.

Have a wonderful month,
