In our naked practice, we can move deeper into the healing and enlivening power of our sensuality. We can cast off our clothes and our limiting beliefs about who we are. We can meet ourselves and welcome what we find with acceptance, kindness, compassion and thanks. We can slow down and indulge in sensation and vibration and we can learn how to feel and harness our lifeforce energy.
In these 2 hour classes, Andy Butterfield of Yoganu in London blends essential themes of tantra yoga, the wisdom of shiatsu and energy medicine with a mindful, breath-led yoga flow practice and partner work. You will be guided through slow and sensual movement, postures and practices that will help you let go of striving and grasping and rest back in acceptance that you are already enough and are actually the one you are looking for.
It will help if you have had some experience of yoga but the class is open to all levels. Spare mats are available but you might prefer to bring your own. A towel and bottle of water is also a good idea. Please don't arrive before 6.45pm and late arrivals (from 7pm) regretfully cannot be admitted.
