If you are looking to get into a healthy morning routine, dust off the winter blues and be ready for Spring then these 45 minute ‘salute the sun’ sessions are for you!

The downside?  Well the ‘night owls’ might not appreciate the early start – but those of us who fall into the ‘lark’ category will love it!

When?

Mon 4th – Fri 8th March

What Time?

6.45 – 7.30 am

It will be first light around 6 am and sunrise will be around 6.50.  Rise with the sun as our ancestors did!

Cost?

FOC – however attendees will be invited to make a voluntary donation for charity

Who can attend?

Anyone – including beginners.  However this is a commitment to 5 straight days of yoga – so you have to attend all 5 days!  Come on – step out of your comfort zone!

Why?

My way of giving something back to The Universe and hopefully raising some money for charity.  (The group can decide which charity)

How do I book?

Simply email me and I’ll pop you on the list!  Limited to 6 places.

Seven amazing women and myself completed a total of 494 Sun Salutations between us in 2 and a quarter hours! We raised £427 for The Hope Foundation! Thanks so much for counting, organising, setting up, chopping melon, filming and photographing, tidying up, encouraging me, laughing, smiling and for being such wonderful people!

“What a fabulous afternoon and a great turn out. Thank you all so much for supporting this event – we raised £140 for our charity TREASURE CHEST. Special thanks to our cake bakers Sylvia, Elaine, Lizi, Carolyn and Daniel – lots of lovely comments guys – you should open a cake shop!

Thanks also to Jayne for washing up and reception duties and to Audrey for the beautiful flowers and for those endless cups of tea…………

Thanks also of course to our artists Helen Kamisky, Di and Claire Harding and to Pat Basterra for her super jewellery.
Pat kindly donated a snowflake obsidian and hematite necklace for us to raffle. The raffle was drawn by artist Helen – and win by ticket number 30 – Agnes Breen. Congratulations Agnes!

So popular was the event that we are going to put on a Christmas Fayre early on 30th November – featuring work by Helen, Di, Claire and Pat – and more!”
