LGBTI PRIDE YOGA - 21 February 2016 @ Killarney Gardens



SPECIAL LESBIAN GAY BISEXUAL TRANSGENDERED YOGA CLASS FOR CAPE TOWN PRIDE

For five years, Cape Men's Yoga has been providing community-based yoga to the men of Cape Town. Whereas CMY is a voluntary yoga and meditation practice for ALL MEN, of all backgrounds, regardless of sexual orientation, embracing our many faiths, our ethnic diversity and a wide range of ages - we recognise that the LGBTI PRIDE event is a unique opportunity for us to share what we do with ALL the people of Cape Town. 

With the support of LUBRIMAXXX personal lubricants, we'll be offering a special 2 hour yoga class on Sunday 21 February 2016 from 10 am until noon, and then a one hour socialising event with cool drinks at a special funky venue in Killarney Gardens.

This is going to be radical and we invite you to join us. Total newbies to yoga are welcome, as well as regular yoga practitioners. It will be a hatha flow class - fun and a bit challenging too. 

You are welcome to wear whatever you can move in. Traditionally CMY is naked yoga - for PRIDE, you can wear a bathing suit, jock-strap, your best undies, your nastiest undies, lycra or a tutu. Be creative! Be lekker! Be proud! Be nca! Be you! 


We start at 10 am - funky music and instructions. Bring your yoga mat and we'll bring some extras. Bring a water bottle and sweat towel. No drugs or alcohol - we are all about well-being.

For venue details and questions email us on capemensyoga AT gmail.com 

We also have a Facebook page on request.

Special Easter Sunday class - Cape Men's Yoga & Meditation

Image
We have moved to our amazing new venue in Constantia in the southern suburbs of Cape Town. This beautiful space is well equipped for our men's naked yoga on Sundays. We've moved the time to 10.30 to 12.30 to fit in with the venue scheduling. We will have a naked yoga class this Sunday, 27 March 2016. We'll be explore the use of bandhas - the body locks which influence energy flow and protect the body from injuries. As we finally have good wall space we are also going to be doing an introduction to handstands. Handstands for some reason have become a craze on social media. That is not a good reason to learn them - but they are also interesting in teaching us about balance, about seeing the world from a different angle and in building up shoulder strength. If you are terrified of handstands, don't worry, there will be other options for you. You are never obliged to do a posture that could cause you problems or anxiety. Yoga is always about your specific jou

  SUNDAY 1 MAY 2016 Dear yogis - as you likely understood, we had to suddenly postpone last week's class. There was a break-in and accident at the yoga centre. The problem has been sorted out and Hector will be able to take the class this Sunday.  He will be working with the theme of intimacy of silence. Beginners are welcome.  We are pleased to announced that one of the most gifted of our new generation of teachers, Hector, will be taking the class this coming Sunday. Hector has trained in India and is accomplished Zen meditator and teacher. He combines his own experiences of body fitness, meditation and yoga to pull together a beautiful practice of mindful movement. If you have been looking for something special, something that inspires you and brings peace to your heart and mind, please join us for this special class.  We are now back in the southern suburbs at an excellent venue with a full yoga hall, sprung floors, mirrored wall space and even showers.

Cape Men's Yoga & Meditation - special Yin Yoga class - 10 July 2016

NAKED MEN'S YIN YOGA PRACTICE IN CAPE TOWN Join us for this special Yin yoga class. We will be teaching this unusual form of yoga - slow and using gravity rather than muscular strength. Yin draws on our lunar energy and the intuitive mind. Most yoga is 'yang' in that it is muscular and energetic. Yin allows us to let go, to let go of the physical effort and concentrate just on being. Yin is a way to explore the unexplored - to be mindfully exactly where we find ourselves.  Each posture is held for five full minutes - working through a sequence of floor postures where the focus in on the still mind rather than on the form of the asana.  This is arguably one of the most meditative styles of yoga. Though working without physical exertion it is still challenging and we confront our own mental reactions to comfort and discomfort, stillness and concentration.  We are at a venue in the southern suburbs of Cape Town. Beginners are welcome. It is a fully nude male practice.
