Greek Mezze

on the beautiful Island of Corfu

Dances from Greece (including Corfu)

Daily Yoga, meditation, pranayama and relaxation

September10^th – 17^th2018

In this beautiful place of peace and regeneration imagine yourself gently unfurling and unwinding far from the demands of everyday life. There will be 2 yoga and 2 dance classes each day (apart from the rest day).

Dancing: Chrisandra has studied Greek dance for thirty years and has travelled widely throughout Greece visiting many communities and sharing their dance and cultural traditions. She will share her learning and insights into Greek dance, history and culture via a wide range of Greek dances many from remote and little known villages. We will also learn some dances from Corfu.

Yoga: Jane will lead the yoga sessions which will be suitable for all. Yoga can bring solace in a world full of challenges as through our yoga practice we can begin to breath more efficiently, understand ourselves and our bodies better and become more at ease with ourselves. Janes teaching is centred on a mindful approach and becoming more aware in all areas of life. Fun, laughter and joy is also part of her yoga practice. She aims to guide her students with transformational techniques in order to bring about a state of harmony, balance and ultimately contentment. Yoga sessions will include asana practice, pranayama, yoga nidra, meditation, chanting and restorative yoga.

Imagine sharing this experience with a small group of like-minded individuals, sharing laughter, fun and good times together as well as stillness and silence.
