I spent February on a little island off Bali with @yogablisslembongan training to become a yoga teacher.
I’m to happy say that I passed and am excited I can teach vinyasa and yin yoga, adding to our activity line up from our little hilltop retreat in the Algarve.
We’ll be starting with a morning vinyasa flow and an evening yin class to enjoy the shades of the sky as the sun drops.
A little background
I’m lucky to enjoy many sports. Flexibility and mobility was not a priority for me until recently. After years of running & biking I know I’m never going to be the most flexible or elegant yoga teacher.
Coming from a sporty background means I have experienced many of the difficulties people face in yoga and relaxation. I’ve worked through some and continue to work at others. Step by step.
I’ve learnt if we wait for good enough in our own minds, we might never feel ready to do something we want to. Life is not about perfection. We can celebrate progress if it happens. We can also enjoy pursuits without expectation that we will get better. And; if we do, the slower the progress the more rewarding it can be. Remember to love our bodies for the many things you can do already and don’t give yourself a hard time for the things you can’t.
We will be offering more yoga classed to our guests and if you are in the area and would like to come along, send me a message. Our classes encourage and explore freedom of movement where there are infinite possibilities and where nothing is wrong.
