HAMFORD MCDONALD

Saturday August 02, 12pm - 2pm

When practicing inversions, our world is essentially turned upside down, initiating a dramatic shift in our normal orientation to gravity. Without a visual reference point, the simplest, most subtle movements, and adjustments to our posture become incredibly difficult in this unfamiliar relationship to gravity.

In this 2-hour workshop, we’ll delve into the art & science of Inversions, simplifying the foundational principles of Asana that align form and function in basic (Dolphin) and advanced postures. Take your practice to the next level by increasing somatic awareness, developing a process-oriented approach, and working with a whole-body complex to optimise balance, and prevent injuries.

Open to all levels of practitioners, however some previous
experience is required.

Phoebe Dubar

Sunday August 10, 7pm-8pm Sunday September 7, 7pm - 8pm

We are so excited to have Feeb's back after 4-months of exploring the outback and recording on the fly!

Every sound bath is a different experience depending on the moon cycle or theme. Allow the sound waves to facilitate a deep meditative state, allowing connection with your inner self and the energies of the full moon. This is a time of heightened intuition and clarity, making it easier to receive insights and guidance.

Phoebe uses a combination of crystal and Himalayan singing bowls, chimes, gongs, hand pan, Monochord and vocal toning. Participants lie down and relax as they are “bathed” in sound, slowing down their brainwaves and lulling them into a deep state of meditation and healing. It’s a profound experience for many, with no experience or skills required by its participants.
