Are you feeling the bonfires? Do you here the sound of crunching leaves under your foot? Yes, Autumn is at the corner even in Asia.

So, it’s time to boost your immune system and to let go of anything that's weighing you down, so you can have a serene and cosy autumn and winter, and I will show your how on Octobre 1st, 2023, from 5 PM to 6:30 PM (Taipei time zone).

During this yoga masterclass, you'll explore targeted yoga poses, the deep breathing technique, and specific acupressure points to stimulate the meridians associated with the metal element, which represents autumn in Chinese medicine and is linked to the lung and large intestine meridians.

So, why should you attend this yoga masterclass?

Well, as summer gently transitions to autumn, the energy shifts from vibrant (yang) to more introspective (yin).

Autumn can sometimes evoke feelings of nostalgia or sadness. Just like nature changes its colours for warmer red and orange and sheds leaves to preserve energy, we too need to let go of what no longer serves us, be it material, physical, or mental clutter.

And that's where the metal element comes into play!

When balanced, the metal element helps us release what's holding us back, allowing us to see our strengths and true worth more clearly. Moreover, it's fantastic for boosting our immune system and keeping those winter bugs at bay.

Are you wondering about the benefits you can expect from this masterclass?

You’ll:

• discover a clear and serene mind

• boost your immune system

• detox your body and mind

• receive useful daily life tips and a better understanding of postures, acupressure, and breathing techniques you can use daily to support decluttering and protect your body and mind for overall well-being.

This yoga masterclass is especially beneficial if you:

• Want to break free from old habits or beliefs that make you sad, or hinder your progress, so you can discover your self-worth.

• Seek to establish healthy relationship boundaries.

• Aim to have a winter free from colds, sore throats, dry coughs, or want to improve your skin and balance your digestion.

So, mark your calendars for October 1st, 2023, from 17:00 to 18:30 (Taipei time zone), and let's flow together in a gentle and fluid yoga sequence!

No prerequisites are necessary. This workshop is open to all levels, and I'll always provide variations so that everyone can enjoy the session, regardless of their experience or fitness level.

Location & Price:

The masterclass will be held in person in Tainan and online via Zoom, and the price is NT$ 550 or 2 credits of your 10-class package.

As always, the proceeds from this event will support the Kalaweit Association.

Even if you can't join live, don't worry! You'll receive a link to the replay, so you can practice the sequence whenever it suits you.

Let's embrace autumn and winter with a serene and boosted spirit!

Summer is the season of action and openness, and to go with this mood, backbends are ideal.

I know they can be challenging because they are the opposite of our daily habits, and that's why I invite you to join me on May 14th, 2023 from 16:30 to 18:00 (Taiwanese time) in this new playful and revitalizing vinyasa yoga masterclass.

You will discover specific exercises to warm up and give mobility to your back and shoulders, as well as a sequence that will allow you to strengthen and stretch the muscles needed to feel comfortable and at ease in your backbends.

At the end of the sequence, we will practice a well-deserved relaxation accompanied by diaphragmatic breathing to appreciate all the progress made.

What will be the benefits of this masterclass for you?

In terms of knowledge, you will leave with exercises and a sequence of poses that will allow you to progress and feel more secure in your backbends.

Physically, you will release tensions or stiffness that you may feel in the upper body.

Mentally, this masterclass will stimulate the meridians that support the element of summer: fire. You will thus activate your optimism and creativity, and soothe your mental agitation or anxiety.

In addition, by restoring mobility to the upper body and recreating openness at the front of the body, you will feel revitalized. This will allow you to fully enjoy the long and beautiful summer days!

Any prerequisites?

This masterclass is open to all levels. I always offer variations so that everyone can enjoy the sequence, regardless of their level or physical ability.

However, please make sure to come with a relatively empty stomach 😄

• You feel a bit frustrated, even irritable

• You like to be in control

Spring is the perfect time to clean and clear, not only in your home but also in your body and mind.

It will create new spaces and motivation to keep moving and take action.

Like the beautiful cherry blossom (my symbol 🌸), you will create space to blossom and let your energy bloom fully.

During this 1.5-hour yoga masterclass, we will use the tools of yoga to reset the body and mind. To do this, we will:

• warm up your body and clear your thoughts with the kapalbhati breath

• detoxify and unbind your body from the heaviness and tension accumulated over the winter through a vinyasa yoga sequence that focuses on stretching the outside of the body, but also on hip mobility and releasing the piriformis (the muscle that can cause discomfort in the lower back or along the back of the leg similar to sciatica).

• meditate to promote a clear and motivated mind

What benefits will you gain from this masterclass?

As you go through this special detox masterclass, you will release old tensions and emotions.

Your mind will be clearer, your motivation renewed, your breathing freer and your body will regain mobility and flexibility.

You will go out of this masterclass with new ideas and ready to embrace new possibilities, knowing that, like the bamboo, you have the ability to adapt no matter what.

We will then do a breathing and yoga practice targeting the health of your belly - your second brain - to help it digest the possible excesses of the end-of-year celebrations, but also the emotions and stress of 2022. It will also stimulate your ability to harmonize your nervous system and boost your immune system so that you can leave with a serene and confident mind for 2023.

Finally, we will end with a 15-20 minute savasana (final relaxation) to anchor the resources you have become aware of during these 2 hours.
