Workshops

A wonderful opportunity for you to immerse yourself in Breath-Body-Mind – BBM practices for a weekend by the sea! Benefit from a retreat style weekend Breath-Body-Mind (BBM) programme in the Beach Studio, Eastbourne with lunch included each day, just a short stroll away along the seafront.

Receive supportive guidance from two experienced Level 4 BBM teachers Joanna Harper and Mandy Brinkley who regularly collaborate to offer workshops, training and retreats.

About BBM

You will practice a host of BBM breath-focused, evidence-based practices that help you to get ready for the core practice of coherent breathing and enhance the benefits. BBM includes simple movement practices with breathing and guided relaxation. The BBM practices are designed to activate mind-body communication pathways, raise energy, regulate mood, enhance performance, reduce inflammation, and help dissolve pain. This retreat style training is for anyone who wishes to improve their stress resilience, physical health, and general well-being. All BBM practices can be modified to suit different levels of mobility and capacity. The BBM program has been developed over many years and continues to evolve and is a trauma sensitive practice. This fundamentals retreat weekend is a practical immersion into BBM. It is not breathwork training and you do not need to want to become a teacher to attend. However, for those wishing to pursue BBM teacher training, this is a prerequisite to the Level 1 Instructor course. You can read more about Drs. Gerbarg and Brown, and dip into some of the science at www.breath-body-mind.com

Kundadance was created by Maya Fiennes and is a dance through the chakras combining Kundalini Yoga, Tai Chi and Qi Gong. It is accessible to all and is a fun way to uplift, inspire, strengthen and tone.

Naomi Newlan has been a yoga practitioner and Ayurvedic massage therapist for 20 years. She loves teaching kundadance as it has been so helpful to her through family separation, country and house moves with children and pets. Her tone is more yin and focuses on presence, self love and self healing.

'Walking, I am looking for a deeper way.
Suddenly all my ancestors are behind me.
Be still, they say.
Watch and listen.
You are the result of the love of thousands.'

Linda Hogan
Native American writer

Time to rest.
Looking to restore and revitalise?
Looking for time to reconnect with the deeper parts of you?

‍

During this workshop we shall be exploring Qigong and the Magic of the Breath through gentle, flowing movements, some dynamic and releasing, as well as through stillness, connecting with our own energy and that of the natural world.

There will be strong and revitalising breathwork through dynamic, yang breathwork inspired by the work of Michael Bikjers and Wim Hof and a deepful restful Yoga Nidra to find that profound rest we are all seeking from time to time, and especially at this time of year.

Each of our workshops are individually tailored to the seasons of the year and connected to the Five Elements of Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM), Earth, Metal, Water, Wood and Fire.

In this workshop we shall be exploring the qualities of the Water that represents the deepest part of ourselves, our connection to our ancestors and the essence of renewal.

It is associated with winter, a crucial time for reflection and conserving energy, connected to our Kidneys which are responsible for storing qi energy, the life force.

As we move into the light we also shall be exploring the Qualities of the Earth Element as the Earth Element is always present through the transitions from one season to another. In its central position the Earth is the pivot for all of the other Elements which encircle and spin around it. It is a place of stability within the body, mind, and spirit. When the earth element is imbalanced within us we find ourselves feeling worried and full of anxiety. We may spend our time overthinking and ruminating, unable to stay centred in the face of life’s changes. Through working with the Channels of the Earth Element we shall focus on staying grounded and present, creating balance throughout the body.

Through our practice of Qigong we can connect into the deepest part of ourselves, replenish, restore and revitalise ourselves so we can feel refreshed and renewed to face any challenges that come our way and inspire the creative in our natures to meet those challenges with energy, love and compassion both towards ourselves and others.

Light refreshments available during the afternoon.
