Do you want to get free from the stories and patterns that hold you back, come into deeper presence, and experience more aliveness in life? Be with your body, mind and emotions in this somatic approach to movement where we explore the shadows and divinity within.

 

Body Temple Dance is a free-form, emotional, and energetic movement practice with roots in Tantra, trauma healing, and somatic education. Influenced by yoga, we explore sensation to bring you into deeper connection with the wisdom of your body through a 3-phase practice.

 

Expect: a mixture of guided movement and breathing practices; space to get curious and dance freely; time to reflect and explore your body as an oracle through meditation and rest. No experience required, just wear comfortable clothes you can move freely in, and bring your curiosity.

Start the new year feeling refreshed and energised. Discover how the techniques of Kundalini yoga can relieve stress and tension. When we feel stressed we trigger the bodies fight or flight response and release certain hormones into our system. Prolonged stress can mean these can build up as toxins within our body and can impact our immune system, digestive system and sleep. Through this practice we will help restore the healthy flow of healing pranic energy throughout the body, supporting the metabolism’s natural ability to eliminate unwanted toxins and leaving you feeling deeply relaxed, calm and like a new person.

Tai chi and Qigong are often described as “meditation in movement”. They are ancient Chinese arts that are beneficial to health and wellbeing in many ways. The movements are gentle, soft and flowing, which makes you feel calm and relaxed. You move slowly, with control, which improves your balance. You move from your centre, which helps you become more co-ordinated. Repeating the sequences and patterns improves your memory.

Tai chi and Qigong enhance your “chi” which translates as your “vital force” or energy. Chi runs in energy channels or “meridians” throughout the body, in a loop. Like rivers, the meridians can become blocked, or stagnant. Doing Tai chi and Qigong unblocks the channels, allowing the chi to flow freely and increasing your capacity to develop more chi. Over time your energy levels increase, your sleep improves and your resistance to illness is enhanced.

Each class includes:

Qigong exercises that combine movement and breath.

Qigong standing postures (which can be adapted for sitting)

Chen style tai chi silk reeling exercises.

Yang style tai chi walking.

Bagua dragon exercises

“Shen Jin Ba Gu” – joint opening and muscle lengthening exercise.

Five Animals Qigong. The Five Animals are: Tiger, Deer, Bear, Monkey and Crane.

The classes are relaxed and informal and beginners are welcome. Just wear loose comfortable clothes and soft shoes and bring some water to drink.

Kath Revell, aka Ninja Granny, has been learning and teaching Tai chi and Qigong for over 30 years and is a member of the Tai chi Union of GB. She runs regular classes in South East Cornwall.

Winter Yin - Deep Stretch Deep Rest is an accessible, inclusive class, a safe calming space in this fast-paced world for you to slow down, unwind, find stillness & support, to destress, relax, rest & replenish. 

 

Winter is the perfect time to get cosy and to find a healthy balance between our movement and rest. It doesn’t matter how fit you think you are or how flexible you are. 

​

Yin yoga is a great way to unwind and prepare your body for a good night's sleep. So don’t just sit on the sofa before bed! Come and cosy up with us for this  pop-up Yin class.  Suitable for all levels, including beginners, for those seeking a good stretch and rest and for those who normally practice a more dynamic style of yoga, play a sport, train, swim, run or go to the gym. 

 

Yin yoga is a slow-paced, meditative practice that focuses on deep stretching, relaxation and rest.  Unlike more dynamic forms of yoga, yin targets the deep connective tissues of the body, such as ligaments, joints, and fascia. By holding poses for an extended period, typically three to five minutes, yin yoga helps release tension and increase flexibility.

 

The Benefits of Yin Yoga

👉🏼Stress Reduction: Yin yoga promotes relaxation by activating the parasympathetic nervous system, which helps counteract the effects of stress & anxiety.

👉🏼Improved Circulation: The gentle stretching and compression of yin yoga poses can enhance blood flow, delivering oxygen and nutrients to your muscles and organs, promoting overall relaxation and better sleep.

👉🏼Deep Relaxation: Holding yin yoga poses for an extended period allows your body and mind to enter a deeply relaxed state, making it easier to fall asleep and stay asleep.

 

Props to support and enhance the practice our used within this class.

All props are provided. But please feel free to bring your own blanket, props and or mat.

To help you relax the studio space will be:

👉🏼Quiet, some relaxing soundscapes may be used, also silence.

👉🏼Darkness, candle light & ambient lighting will be used.

👉🏼The space will be warm, but it is advised to bring, wear layers.​

No Experience is needed.

Somatics is natural movement. Natural movement is movement that is co-ordinated through the centre of the body. Your body is a system, a living organism that innately knows how to self-regulate and self-heal. All the movements are gentle, slow, and pleasurable and are mainly done lying on a mat on the floor. The main technique is called “pandiculation”, which is a way of lengthening the muscles without stretching. Somatics is a simple and effective way to address and prevent long term pain.

​

Sessions for 2025 cover:

• Introduction to the Trauma Reflex - exploring asymmetry and the movement of the waist

• The Red Light Reflex - learn to recognise this unconscious "Freeze" response to danger, and release it,

• The Green Light Reflex - learn how to recognise and release this "fight or flight" response,

• Trauma Reflex - exploring this asymmetry build up from habitual one-sided movement whatever the cause, and

• Improving Walking - exploring tensions and unraveling them to walk freely

Kath Revell studied Somatics and Clinical Somatic Education with Martha Peterson from Essential Somatics. She also teaches Tai chi and Qigong. Please visit www.ninjagranny.org/somatics for further information.

At the midpoint between winter solstice and spring equinox comes Imbolc; an early opportunity to bask in the coming of Spring and look forward to new opportunities and experiences. To celebrate, we have another exploration of body and mind, with a physical yin class followed by a yogic sleep, which can be taken individually or as a combined long session. The combination of the two sessions will take participants on a blissful journey through some deeply releasing Yin yoga poses and on to a relaxing and rejuvenating Yoga Nidra ("sleep of the yogis"). Drawing on the current seasonal energies, Imbolc, or St Brigid's Day, is the perfect time to invite blessings for the year ahead into your life and begin preparations for the coming of Spring. We will explore both physical and mental expansion and release, using the joy of exploration and enquiry at this time of forward focus and natural unfolding.

​

The yin session (4.00-5.00pm) involves longer held physical poses with plenty of use of props and personally tailored options, with restorative poses and gentle movement between the longer held poses. This provides an overall experience of calm, cool yin energy (rather than heat-generating, faster moving yang energy), allowing the fascia (connective tissues wrapping our organs and muscles) to release.

 

The nidra session (5.00-6.00pm) is not a physical practice; participants will find a comfortable place to rest - again props are always encouraged to help you find stillness - then we allow the body to completely rest while the mind follows the full nidra technique into an effortless state of complete "non-doing". 

 

The two practices together encourage a deep exploration of not only the body, with deep release found in the stretches, but also a deep exploration of where the mind goes, when left to its own devices or when led through the layers of consciousness to a state of bliss......

 

No previous yoga or yoga nidra experience needed. All are welcome.
