About Event:
Yoga classes which are suitable for beginners to advanced students and cater to all fitness levels and abilities, with plenty of modifications on offer.
Facilitated by Nicoli Eiras, the classes are held every Friday morning.
Welcoming students of all levels, these practices focus on holding space to simply experience our bodies and to be aware of our inner landscape. Over time, they help us recognise how to sustain a balanced and equanimous state in daily life and nurture the qualities we truly wish to see grow within us.
Through these kind and profound practices, we invite you to observe how different asanas shape the sensation of the breath, explore the benefits of truly learning to relax, and experience breathing techniques (pranayamas) as tools to cultivate the quality and depth of your attention.
Looking for a day of movement, mindfulness, and calm? Start your day with yoga at 9am, deepen your practice with a teaching from our resident teacher Geshe Tsultrim at 10:30am in the Gompa, enjoy a wholesome lunch at the Big Love Café, and relax with a guided meditation at 1:15pm. You could even wander through the beautiful Garden of Enlightenment. What a beautiful day out!
About our Teacher:
Nicoli Eiras (Nicki) received her Yoga Teaching Training at a respected Institute in São Paulo, Brazil called IEPY – Institute of Teaching and Research in Yoga, and is also certified by the Kaivalyadhama Institute (Lonavla, India), having applied herself in the study and practice of meditation consistently.
She has started facilitating classes out of the profound wish to offer others the tools and practices that tremendously benefited her. Nicki believes that yoga is a state of awareness we can cultivate — a path towards the realisation of our true presence and interconnectedness with all beings.
