“A woman has to learn the fundamental truth that she is she and she has her own design, her own consent, her own self, her own life, her own projection, and her own beauty.” Yogi Bhajan
Kundalini Yoga is full of teachings and practices especially for women.
With its focus on the glandular and nervous systems, it is uniquely beneficial for physical vitality, emotional and mental balance as well as opening the door to the priceless and irreplaceable experience of your authentic Self.
No matter what your life situation, or the nature of your roles and relationships, one thing is clear: finding and regularly returning to a neutral gear, in which you are just you, for you, even if just for a moment each day, is vital to living in a fulfilling way.
Yoga for Women classes, much more than just being for physical well-being (though in itself this is of great benefit), offer you great support, guidance and enrichment. The practices are incredibly effective at balancing your nervous system, lowering stress and raising your spirits. The teachings may pave the way for deep insights and give you very concrete tips for creating more harmony and fulfilment in your life and relationships.
Dance of Polarities
Thursdays 6.45 to 8.30pm in Winthrop
7 week course 28th July to September 8th - Intro class 21st July
This series focusses on the double masculine feminine polarity within and all around us.
2 feminine and 2 masculine principles and the combining of these 4 as the 5th principle are the basic elements of creation. They are as simple and essential as earth, water, fire, air and ether.
Becoming aware of them, working with them and creatively balancing them within us and in our relationships lets us actively participate in the dance. It helps us elevate our attitude from a fight of dualities to a creative, dynamic exchange of polarities. Through this we move towards greater harmony, authenticity and fulfilment.
This class includes teachings, discussion & sharing, Kundalini Yoga & meditation. I also offer you reflections and practices to do between the classes.
You don’t need to have any previous experience with any kind of yoga to join. It is suitable for everybody.

The 7 weeks of themes starting July 28th:
Week 1: You in your Totality - A Yogic Perspective
We map out the double masculine feminine polarity to give you an insight into the elements that you are made up of as well as the aspects that play out in your relationships.
Week 2: Feminine Virility & Self Initiation
Every soul has come with an innate wish to grow, rise and evolve. Start at the beginning with I am. I exist. Initiate into your unique being.
Week 3: Instinctive Feminine & the Power of No
No comes before yes. A good clean No eliminates to illuminate. This instinctive feminine aspect is important to know. The know how of the No is its own innate wisdom.
Week 4: Self Affirmation, Self Approval
Nobody can ever tell you you are okay enough times or completely enough. You must make it your habit and a rule to affirm yourself.
Week 5: Intuitive Feminine - Impact By Your Presence
The intuitive feminine is what wakes us all up. Without her, we are lost. She is consciousness, truth & reality.
Week 6: Balance, Relationship & Radiance
Combining all these elements in a creative & harmonious way, you live fulfilled. Your life bears fruit. You are authentic & your light shines.
Week 7: What are We Evolving Into?
Where do we find ourselves collectively, as humanity, in the sweep of history? We look at the threshold at which we now stand and the unique importance of cultivating the attitude of the intuitive feminine if, individually and collectively, we are to survive, evolve and thrive.
