On-demand Workshops Get Gold or Platinum m'ship for access (most recent at the top) Previous workshops (before July 2023 can be found by clicking the link at the bottom of the page This was the last workshop of the year, and we did a pretty well rounded class exploring things from a first principle basis (being able to let go of weight from the spine/developing a breath that joins in with whatever you are intending to do/groundedness from above & and lightness from below, etc etc) The starting point of any practice Some first principles 14th December 2024 A quite intense workshop involving working with squats and other things in order to understand how powerfully your 'breathing gear' needs to be involved directly in your support for you to discover freedom during intense physical activity. Recognising the natural movements we need to develop Developing natural core responsiveness 7th December 2024 I began with an explanation of why people 'lose energy' and a detailed explanation of how the breath can be 'anti-gravity'. With this current (long-term!) group, I am finding each workshop gets closer to offering the self-empowerment of understanding your practice. .... and working with first principles Listening to what the body wants 1st December 2024 I started this workshop with a reminder that my work, and therefore your practice, is ALWAYS based on first principles (eg. learning to do things without holding your weight up with the spine). And then, because it was a small workshop, I was able to guide the participants into an exploratory practice that would reveal the meaning and deliver the result of this first principle (for the neck) A strange practice that makes sense of everything How to actually be free in the head and neck 23rd November 2024 A very small but powerful workshop - a masterclass in using sitting to activate deep freedoms and support. Seated postures & redressing scoliotic holding patterns Length space & support for the waist 9th November 2024 This was a deep exploration of how gravity-based released balance can invite the breathing to support you in movement towards uprightness with only release in the lower back and neck (I only have the group recording for this one) A shamanic journey that changes everything Learning to let go into uprightness 2nd November 2024 A very small workshop which led to some bespoke 'yoga solutions' - but because it was such a small class I could really go deep into the depth of attention and pace that can allow real changes in the body-mind-breath relationship. Your practice at home - going through the process that allows you to listen to and meet the body's needs. A very private practice 26th October 2024 This was a very inspiring workshop, spurred on by questions and experiences of participants.... A deep inquiry into all things Yoga, Life & being Human 19th October 2024 A deep dive into the subject... its the stuff i usually teach, but this was a direct exploration of how we create the best relationships - which in turn instigates all the other things I share in my teaching How to use the limbs so that you are supported by the breath Relationships to the world that support you 12th October 2024 .'Letting go' is a simple idea, but surprisingly difficult to actually do. The issue is support - but when the movements of the breath become strong enough to become that support , there is a radical shift in how you and your body operate together. - in what it means to let go. A masterclass 5th October 2024 'Moving from the core' is something that I am always inviting people to explore - however, the way you use your limbs goes with how your core and breathing operate. If you can find the best 'relationships' to your outward actions through the limbs, 'moving from the core' becomes an emergent quality.... Relationships to what you're doing in space that lead to core activation & support Elbows knees, wrists & ankles 27th Sept 2024 This workshop started with a deep learning - it was pretty much a ted talk about how joints get to a state of continuous complaint, and how sublimely simple it is to redress, no matter how long-term, if we can understand these 'things' as relationships.... A shift in perspective that will change your practice for ever An understanding of how to heal any joint I had no agenda for this workshop, then a simple question about 'wrists', launched us into a deep-dive into wrists and ankles (being different from hands and feet) and how the pairings can give you bi-directional support all the way through to the spine. The gateways to inner support. The magic of wrists & ankles... 7th September 2024 This was another deep dive workshop to develop all the mutually supportive relationships between hands, wings, ribs and face, that make for free movement from the upper spine. A deep and effective approach to 'putting your hands down for back bend' that explores all the relationships together so that the spine behind the heart can feel the direct support of the hands. Integrating the Arms 24th August 2024 Because I am posting this late, I needed to watch some of it to remind myself what it is about. Found myself attending the workshop because my body enjoyed engaging with it almost by osmosis. The most natural way to develop 'yoga awareness' Inward action/outward release....Outward action/inward release 17th August 2024 .... The title explains it The way the limbs cause natural pranayama Wrists & Ankles, Shoulders & Hips 3rd August 2024 This workshop focussed on getting accurate about the most supportive and comfortable relationships between the Head, face, use of the hands (and wings), and the ribcage/thoracic spine.... When they all have a mutually supportive relationship to each other in space, then the release/surrender of the breath will, by itself, cause the elongation of the spine as you let go of your weight,... (I tried it out in headstand) The Head/Face, hands/Wings, and the Rib-cage/Spine Integrating the upper body 28th July 2024 This workshop started with 'finding the appropriate attitude of the head' - to discover the actual physical orientation of the head on the first vertebra that allow the head and neck to relax in movement, and morphed into paying attention to where the space behind the navel sits in relation to support, and how the heart can also be at this centre (which allows all 3 to remain quiet and supported during movement. The 3 main centres of grounded support Head Heart & Navel 6th July 2024 This was in response to requests from a participant that noticed her hips complained a bit after walking. So we did some practices to open the hips and then took that awareness into standing and walking. Something at the end for neck and shouilders. And how its the ribs that free them up All about the hips 29th June 2024 The title explains it, The practice is very intense, but if you find it directly, you'll never want to do things any other way, ... is in the relationships between your face/head, how you use your arms, and your ribcage/breath A perfectly free neck... 22nd June 2024 This was a small workshop (because of website error on my part), but the few that tried the link anyway got a rather deep class. I talked a little about how the body is always letting you know what you need, and the best mental framework for 'listening' to what it's saying. And of course a guided practice to show how it works. So follow it to be calmed, but absorb the baseline instructions, and it will serve you in your practice for life. A practical way to bring you back to the centre of things. 'Breathing what you are doing' 15th June 2024 This workshop was about looking after the main joints of the limbs ... When employed this way, the breathing actions of the core & ribs become the centre of your support, and hands and feet become the support for your breathing actions. Outcome is freedom and strength... ...powered by hips and shoulders back away from them Knees & elbows in space... 8th June 2024 I began the workshop talking about how my intention behind practice has shifted over time, and then guided everyone in 'Mahapranayamasana' - a powerful practice that is done lying down. The guidance on this one shows how much work can be done (and benefits can be gained from doing so) in a single 15 minute practice. The rest of it was just exploring different things employing the benefits we discovered. Mahapranayamasana ... The simplest posture for the deepest practice. About your personal relationship to practice 1st June 2024 I am posting this a while after, so I have forgotten the specifics, but we tried reclining leg extension and twists, and took the same feeling into standing postures.... I do remember that we explored a relationships between the ribs and the outer edges of the hands and feet on the same side.... and then the opposite side of the ribs can put the inner edges of the feet and and hands down. Learning to move and balance with strong support from how your breath moves It's the ribs that put the feet down! 25th May 2024 A couple of new positions to properly open out the psoas and free up the contents of the pelvis and waist, together with an exploration of side-bends vs turning or twisting, to help understand how to be free, long and supported in the neck and waist.... Generating space for the waist and neck Hips & Neck 18th May 2024 .... I also did something to help explore turning from the upper body without pulling on the neck - Which is an activity of mobile ribs with support from the core. All of these things can (and should be) be supported by the breath, so I incorporated pranayama practices (easy for those familiar with 'The Sacred Breath' course). And when the free-hip walking was revisited, the mobility of the upper body and ribcage made more natural sense of things for everyone.... Reinventing walking without hip tension Hips & shoulders 4th May 2024 This workshop I set the scene for the upcoming course by taking the small group through 3 kriya-type pranayamas that help you develop the core responsiveness needed for 'your breath to become your support'... I will add this to the 'Sacred Breath' course so that all premium members can run through this. A prequel to the 'Chakra Course' (September 2024) Pranayama & Posture 27th April 2024 After experiencing a week of needing deep and strong pranayama work to support the changes around the base of my spine after freeing up the thoracic spine, I was further encouraged to put on the course on chakras I have in my sights.... today was a bit of an explanation of how it works, together of course with a direct experience of why we need to pay attention to these things (and the breathing choices that invite them) in terms of physical practice.... A taster for the upcoming course September 2024 The support centres for our chakras I uploaded this the following week, so I don't remember the content ... people enjoyed as usual so follow to find out. Enjoy! The second workshop from Barcelona 13th April 2024 On this workshop, a large proportion of the group were experiencing recovery from illness and other debilitating situations, so I built a workshop that addressed the discomfort at source, and participants could either apply the same principles to postures directly, or to the imagined intention of engaging with the posture - leading to outcomes that were almost the same. .... how to integrate the breath into everything you do. The breath is the answer If you haven't done this workshop, you need to. ... centre in and move from the heart. It's sublimely simple... 23rd March 2024 The evening before I discovered something that seemed to cause the inner body to naturally organise itself into the thing I am always talking about.... How to invoke the inner strength I talk about A trick to help you discover what I'm talking about. 16th March 2024 A guided experience that teaches the body to find the support it needs so you can let go. How to let go of holding yourself together and up with things that want to be free in space... Neck and hips 9th March 2024 My teaching these days is consolidating into a united picture of things , so really, I could use any description for any video. Today we applied the thing to reclining leg extensions, approach to king pigeon, and seated wide stride forward bend. ..... is to give your body a 'new' way of supporting yourself - A Centred Breath. All it takes to release your hips, lower back, neck and shoulders .... 2nd March 2024 Too much to say - watch the video :-) ... Using your relationship to space to release into the ground Using the earth to relate to space... 24th February 2024 I was inspired by a 1:1 that got me thinking about why its so difficult to even know when we are holding our weight up with the spine ... what followed on this workshop was a clear explanation and practice of one of my base-line first principles. .... the somatic key to discovering and understanding the meaning of yoga. understanding The Art of Letting go 17th February 2024 This was quite a strong workshop, in that I guided us through applying the principles set out in the previous couple of weeks in standing postures, whilst comparing it to what happens with the usual instructions you get to 'perform' a posture. Not an easy one, but rewarding if you are in the mood for some hard work. ...standing postures & seated forward bends Using postures to develop space & inner support 10th February 2024 This was really a follow on from last week's workshop. This happens quite regularly for me - I come up with a theme because of some practical realisation in practice, then a week later I am discovering more and more value from it, and deeper ramifications from its practice... A must for anyone suffering from feeling 'heavy' Internal space: How to create, sustain and relax into spaciousness 3rd February 2024 The answer is the same as everything else - bring yourself back together with the heart to activate and centre from the spine behind it... Enjoy! ...Solving the need to trade these off against each other Length in the waist, length in the sides of the neck... 27th January 2024 This whole workshop was about exploring all aspects of yoga from a first-principle basis... We started with some simple rolling around to remind ourselves of first principles, then took that into some strong postures (chair pose, warrior, triangle etc), building up each from the same principles. I thoroughly enjoyed myself and felt great after :-) ...free-flow movement and strong postures Some natural practice 30th January 2024 The title says it all really.. The workshop goes into practices that first create the space, then invites support to travel back into the spine behind the heart, so that we can understand how to move from there to experience the freedom at both ends. The naturalisation of this way of doing things relies on the breath. ... sourced in movement into and from the centre - the spine behind the heart. Space and freedom at both ends of the body.... 13th January 2024 I started the workshop with an anecdote about my experience of my body when i am feeling less than happy, compared to when i'm feeling great. The somatic difference is to do with engagement from within (which happens more naturally when you're feeling happy or enthused or something). Its important to go WITH what the body is saying to you, but if you want to change how you feel, it can happen naturally by awakening the stuff I always talk about - because that is the inner support that allows your periphery to both relax and fly into expression of what you are doing, simply because you are breathing it. ... to release into outward action. Awakening the inner support... 6th January 2024 It was a small group on this one, and the workshop became a deeper exploration of my yoga solutions class on 'happy hips - releasing the Psoas and Illio-Psoas'. The workshop ended with something for the shoulders and neck (which goes with and allows integration of the thing that releases the hips) .... bringing supportive responses away from the periphary and towards the centre... Happy hips part 2 16th December 2023 I started this workshop with no agenda, and as is often the way, it led to a pivotal workshop that brought a solution to the ubiquitous problem of 'thinking' your way into yoga. Shambhavi mudra is a 'yoga trick' with the eyes that can bypass binary thinking and bring you directly into the body. And 'the bhandas' can be developed naturally through an understanding of the movements and natural engagement of your core, ribs and diaphragm through grounded breathing. Shambhavi mudra (2 versions) & the bhandas Two MAJOR yoga practices to transform your practice for good. 9th December 2023 A deep and comprehensive workshop for anyone wanting to open the upper spine, whilst freeing up the neck & shoulders and resoliving lower back/sacrum issues as you go ..whilst taking care of the sacrum/lower back Opening the spine 2nd December 2023 It is useful to understand how the hips & lower back best work together, and how the head neck & shoulders can do that at the other end of the body, but the only way they can both settle naturally into these improved relationships is when movement and support is sourced in the space between them - the middle - the core & ribcage. This would lead to an 'exercise' for them UNLESS, they get involved in using the ground that supports you and the space you are moving into. And the way they naturally do that is when you can let go of holding your weight up with the spine..... It is the source solution to neck/shoulders & hips/lower back. Your centre... 25th November 2023 I remember this being a pivotal workshop that invites clarity about what it means to 'move from the spine & heart' Moving from the heart The breastbone & the spine 18th November 2023 Anyone with neck & shoulder issues, with any degree of scoliosis (most of us have somewhere in the spine that is off to one side), or just 'heaviness' in the body - the solution for you is to awaken the ribgage in movement and support. It goes with non-sedentary breathing, and also with a whole-hearted engagement with life. This workshop explores these things in practice. Your natural source of lightness and strength. Awakening the ribcage (and thoracic spine) 21st October 2023 There was a confluence of requests about the area at the top of the shoulders... the solution is movement from the nearby spine, which we explored in whole body movements and some postures. Towards the end of the session we explored moving directly from the bit of spine that was previously stuck - leading to an experience of all the movements and relationships that we had practiced in order to release the spine in the first place. Liberating the upper spine into extension from above down All bout the neck 14th October 2023 A gentle and deep exploration of natural breathing and how it can lead to ease and support in posture work... together with a section specifically on looking after the knees. I ended with guided relaxation that turned out to be a rather comprehensive exploration of each and every chakra Chakra centred breathing & posture work The breath is where its at 7th October 2023 Click here for the list Previous Workshops All Workshops before July 2023 Anchor 1

The Chakras a comprehensive experiential guide (To get the most out of this course, is recommended to be well versed with the Pranayama series ) Get any Premium membership for access 1 Introducing 'the Junctions' between Chakras Chakra Course - Intro Chakras are thought of as 'energetic centres' of our bodies. On this intro workshop I offer a real-world explanation of the phenomenon (how I have grown to understand them through my 35 years of practice). And I guide you through something to gain direct somatic awareness of one of the physiological structures that acts as a 'junction' between two of them. 2 The Heart Chakra and its supporting structures Anahata These classes are mostly practical, so on this one I take you through practices to activate the physical structures that create support for the heart chakra breathing space. And we end with a quiet experiencing of what it feels like to centre ourselves there. 3 The Throat Chakra and its structures Vishuddi The Throat Chakra functions best when the junction above it (where the skull meets the first vertebra) is free/balanced, and the junction below is grounded (the thoracic inlet and top few vertebra of the thoracic spine). We explore developing each condition to be able to experience 'centering in the throat Chakra' (which is actually the experience of true listening) 4 Discovering the Heart Chakra in uprightness Anahata part2 This workshop brings together the retention breath practices of the Pranayama Course together with the understanding of the supportive structures of the Heart, to create the possibility of released centering into the Heart Space in uprightness. (Essential for true meditation)
