Changes to Class Schedule...

The season turns and brings with it a change to my class schedule at Shambhala Studios.

The Monday Dynamic class will no longer run and instead I'm offering a new class:

Yoga for All, every Monday at 10.15am.

Yoga for All on Wednesdays at 9.15am and Beginners on Fridays at 10.30am continue to be really busy and I'm expecting the new Monday class to be the same, so book your spot by calling the studio: 01702 478 924 or if you're a member you can book online. Look forward to welcoming you :)

Introducing Yoga's Little Sister...



No, not me - Chakradance! Here's a 3 minute video explaining Chakradance which has been described as a little sister to yoga. That would be a rather grandiose claim if it weren't for the fact that since the earliest times, human beings have used dance in ceremony, celebration, to bring people together - and for healing both on an individual and group level.  In contrast to the structured movements of yoga, Chakradance is about spontaneous, 'freestyle' movement, yet both offer a way to get out of your head and into your body to connect deeply with yourself, experience meditative or higher states of consciousness and bring about release and inner changes. Chakradance is also great fun and brings an uplifting feeling of freedom and a sense of well being.


The next Chakradance event is on 12th February at Shambhala Studio, Maple Ave, Leigh on Sea, SS9 1PR arrivals 7.45 for 8m start. Ends 9.30pm. Booking essential. Pay to secure your place £12. Please call the studio on: 01702 478 924 in advance. No drop in. Just a few places left!

An 8 week Chakradance course starts 19th February (same venue and times). **The course is open to anyone who has tried Chakradance. So if you fancy taking the course and you haven't yet tried Chakradance you'll need to book a place and try it on 12th February!

If you've tried Chakradance and want to take the course REGISTRATION IS NOW OPEN. Please call me on 0794 700 5629 or email jan@chakradancingessex.com. For full details of  events and course plus what to expect in a class see www.chakradancingessex.com
