Janet Evans has been practising yoga since the 1980s and teaching for the last 16 years. She is a popular and well respected BWY/Viniyoga teacher whose work is based on the teachings of Krishnamacharya and TKV Desikachar. She was trained by Paul Harvey completing both his practitioner and postgraduate yoga teacher and therapy training program. She lives and works in South East London where she teaches groups of adults, teenagers and children and also on a 1 - 1 basis. She regularly runs courses, workshops and retreats in the UK and abroad and continues to work with her own teacher Ranju Roy of Sadhana Mala.
During the retreat led by Janet Evans, two yoga sessions each day will explore ways of deepening and supporting your practice.
Classes will include thoughtful sequencing of asana (postures), dynamic as well as static work with careful attention to the breath. Some classes may be more strenuous and some more relaxing and meditative. In some classes pranayama (breathing techniques) will be explored, in others sound work may be introduced. By the end of the week you will experience the possibilities yoga practice can have at promoting a healthy body, a calm mind and increased emotional balance.
An individual lesson will be offered to all participants who will be given a personal tailor-made practice to take away and use at home. Jonathan Clark, an ordained Buddhist teacher will offer guided meditation sessions in nature.
In between yoga practice there will be plenty of time to enjoy the luxury of the farmhouse or explore the stunning grounds or simply relax by the pool.Deliciously healthy meals will be provided by Angela with an emphasis on local produce with all dietary requirements catered for by arrangement.
In 2017 Janet's retreats will be held from 24 June - 1 July and 15 July - 22 July.
