Gentle Somatic Yoga® (GSY) is an innovative blend of Hatha Yoga, Hanna Somatic Education, Pranayama (breathing techniques) and meditation.
It is a unique brain-to-muscle re-education that combines traditional yoga postures, Hanna Somatic Education, breathing techniques and healing visualizations. GSY incorporates slow, mindful movements which raise body awareness to heal old tension-based patterns in the body. This method is ideal for overcoming bodily aches and pains and dramatically increasing flexibility.
In this workshop we will be introduced to some simple Somatic Movement Flows that can be practised on a daily basis; we will also look at the basic science and methodology of GSY.
