Heaven & Earth Summer Retreat 2017

Image
Here are some images from the Heaven & Earth summer retreat. The retreat worked with the theme of the five koshas - the five sheaths of our being - physical, energetic, mind, wisdom and bliss. We had yoga, meditation, nature walks, nature talks, labyrinth walking, a creative project where we printed paint from our bodies onto canvas, a pilates lesson, a forest ritual dance and a massage class. The overwhelming experience was one of kindness, brotherhood, freedom and authenticity. Sometimes just being naked with other men allows you to be exactly who you were born to be, without fear, without hesitation, trusting and at peace. It was beautiful. Our next retreat is in mid-August again in the Overberg, Western Cape, South Africa. Namaste The End

Cape Men's Yoga & Meditation on Sunday 11 October 2015 Summer is coming guys!  Yoga is mostly about the mind, but we know that having a fit body is good for many reasons. For October, we'll be working with ashtanga vinyasa flow styles to get some strength building up in different parts of the body and breaking a sweat in class.

Nigel  will take this forward in this week's class, continuing to explore the full expression of the Sun Salutations and working with standing postures, balances and upper body strength.  Yoga can be started at any age. If you have substantial issues such as injuries, medical conditions or major weight issues, a regular class may not be appropriate for you. There are yoga therapists in Cape Town. Whatever your requirements are the practice has many variations which are there to assist you. For most guys, our class works well. It is athlet...
