Join me Wednesday evening from 7:45 pm to 8:45 pm at the welcoming Art &amp; Spirituality Centre here in Gorgie for a wonderful mixture of Gentle Hatha and Yin Yoga mix class where my aim is to help you find balance within your mind and body and leave you feeling relaxed and restored.
 

What is YIN yoga...
Yin yoga is my absolute favorite type of yoga because for me it completely relaxes and grounds me, relieves anxiety/stress, and increases circulation. I also like to hang out low on my mat and with Yin, I always seem to have a good night&#39;s sleep the day I practice but don&#39;t just take my word for it as yin is known to also...
Help ease stress and anxiety
boost circulation
Calm and balance the mind
Improve flexibility
release fascia and increase joint flexibility
&nbsp;
Yin poses are typically held for 2 to 3 minutes (can be much longer but not within this class). laying quietly holding an asana/pose can also prove a little challenging for some of us as it becomes an internal process as we learn to sit with different emotions and feelings that arise within the mind and body.
&nbsp;
Yin Poses target the connective tissue of the body; joints, bones, ligaments, and fascia. Poses can mainly work on the lower parts of the body; hips, pelvis, lower spine, and inner thighs.
 
My aim is to offer a very welcoming, safe, and restorative environment. Our class will start promptly at 7:45 pm and finish at 8:45 pm. I ask that you please attend 5 minutes before the start of our class but no earlier than 7:40.

We have equipment available such as yoga mats and blocks available to use.

I look forward to seeing you on the mat.

Learn to wood turn in a heated workshop with one to one tuition. These 2 days do not need to be taken together and often people complete day 1 and then get some practice time (and some new tools!) in and then come back to learn a bit more. Expect to cover: Day 1 Prep talk on: Health &amp; Safety - Dust Extraction - Lathe choice - Tools - Sanding - Finishing - Timber - tool sharpening. Then let's get turning your first project. Lunch break. Finish turning a small bowl which you can take home with you. ​ Day 2 ​Pretty flexible but after a few safety reminders: If you bring your tools you can learn how to sharpen them Then you'll turn something a bit more challenging putting into practice the skills learned on day 1. ​ This course is one to one which is by far the best way to start woodturning. You can learn at your own speed without feeling under any pressure. I&rsquo;ll push you a little but it&rsquo;s your course at your pace. You&rsquo;ll be surprised how quickly you can learn the basics. ​ My heated workshop has 2 lathes, a Hegner HDB 200XL and a VB 36 Master Bowlturner. Dust extraction out to an adjoining store with Micromesh ceiling filter. If you require accommodation I can advise when you book.
