Retreats 2019

Friday 11th – Sunday 13th October

The Haven, Emu Park, QLD 4710

Practice the Pause

This weekend retreat will focus on fully attending to the present moment with an attitude of openness, kindness and curiosity.

The Capricorn Yoga Teachers  will integrate the teachings of mindfulness –  through awareness of sensations in the body in  practising asanas (postures); –  through concentration on the breath and movement of life force in pranayama (breathing techniques); –  and through balancing the mind’s activity in meditation – leaving you with a deeper awareness of how to be truly present, in each and every moment.

Bookings open – 1st August 2019.

Proactive Healthy Aging

Using yoga to support vibrant physical, mental and spiritual health.

On the structural level we will explore key functional movement patterns and use them as a foundation for adaptation of poses and postures to our individual needs. On the pranic level we will use breath-centred asana to find smooth, unobstructed flow of prana and tap into life force. Repetition and exploration will allow us to explore the heart’s understanding and tap into the witness mind. The process of practice and exploration nourishes, builds our own self trust, and supports a deep existential relaxation.

Maria is originally from New York City but has lived and taught yoga in Australia for 20 years. She is a yoga therapist, occupational therapist, yoga teacher and teacher trainer. Maria specialises in making yoga accessible for students of all ages and levels of experience and ability.
