Her yoga training was in Vanda Scaravelli- influenced Hatha Yoga at London Yoga Teacher Training Group. Not unlike dance; awareness of “grounding, breathing and releasing” is fundamental to the Scaravelli approach to yoga. While training to dance Lucy read ‘The Cloud of Unknowing’.

Location

The Meditatio Centre & ONLINE

A Mudra is a seal; a connection through the body, where one point makes contact with another. Many Mudras are natural hand movements we make every day in response to what we’re feeling: hand to the forehead, hands to the face, heart, tummy. Perhaps  they provide a brief moment of comfort or connection, or they emphasize something we’re feeling.

Mudras feature in yoga; formalised hundreds of years ago, for the practise of sitting, breathing and attention.

On this day we will focus on our wonderful hands, gently explore a series of mudras, and how they support relaxation and meditation.

No previous experience of yoga required; a beginner’s mind is a bonus!
