SUMMARY:Yoga from the Inside Out (OM Yoga Show—class)
DESCRIPTION:Do you ever arrive at a yoga class already primed to “do” something—to follow instructions\, make a shape or get the pose right? \nWhat changes when we stop trying to make the body fit the pose and begin experiencing yoga from within? \nThis experiential class offers a different starting point: our natural state of being\, where awareness itself can invite change. Through breath\, imagery and embodied awareness\, explore your relationship with the ground\, pelvis and spine—and discover a sense of centre from which alignment and movement can naturally unfold. \n\nAbout Loulou James MCSP\nLoulou is a Spine Health Specialist\, retired physiotherapist\, yoga teacher\, educator and founder of the Buttafly. Drawing on more than 40 years’ experience\, her workshops bring together practical anatomy\, movement and embodied exploration\, inviting people to understand their bodies more deeply through their own experience.\n\n\nThis class is free to attend\, but you will need a ticket for the OM Yoga Show\, which can be purchased at london.omyogashow.com.

SUMMARY:Harnessing the Power of the Natural Breath (OM Yoga Show—class)
DESCRIPTION:Do you ever find yourself beginning a breathing practice before you’ve taken the opportunity to feel what your breath is already doing? \nBreathing is a whole-body experience. With every inhalation and exhalation\, movement travels through the ribs\, spine and pelvis—even when we are barely aware of it. \nIn this experiential yoga class\, we’ll turn our attention towards this natural rhythm and explore how the way we position and support the body can affect the freedom of the breath. \nUsing guided awareness\, accessible anatomy and gentle movement\, you’ll be invited to notice the relationships between breathing\, posture and the spine from within your own body. We’ll become curious about what changes when we create more space\, reduce unnecessary effort and allow the breath to move without forcing it. \nThis is not about learning to breathe “correctly” or mastering a particular breathing technique. It is an opportunity to rediscover something your body already knows how to do—and to experience how the natural breath can support movement\, ease and presence. \nSlow down\, tune in and discover the quiet power within this simple\, ever-present relationship. \nSuitable for all levels of yoga practitioners\, from complete beginners to experienced teachers. No previous knowledge of anatomy is needed. \n\nAbout Loulou James MCSP\nLoulou is a Spine Health Specialist\, retired physiotherapist\, yoga teacher\, educator and founder of the Buttafly.

SUMMARY:Finding steadiness and ease in sitting
DESCRIPTION:Is your yoga helping your spine… or asking too much of it?\nThe quality of our sitting influences everything that follows. Whether for meditation\, pranayama or seated yoga practice\, we may be so familiar with the shape we are trying to create that we don’t always notice how much effort the body is using to maintain it. \nIn this practical\, experiential workshop\, we’ll take a fresh look at sitting from the foundations upwards. Through simple anatomy\, guided awareness and exploration\, we’ll consider how the position of the pelvis influences the spine\, where our weight is being supported\, and the difference between holding ourselves upright and finding a position in which the body can support itself with greater ease. \nUsing the Buttafly\, we’ll explore how thoughtful support can create space around the pelvis and tailbone and provide a more balanced foundation for the spine. Rather than trying to correct or force posture\, we’ll notice what happens when the body is given the support it needs to respond for itself. \nInspired by the yogic principles of sthira (steadiness) and sukha (ease)\, this workshop brings anatomy off the page and into your own experience. You’ll leave with a clearer understanding of your own sitting patterns and simple\, practical ways to explore greater comfort\, stability and ease in your yoga practice. \nSuitable for all levels of yoga practitioner\, from complete beginners to experienced teachers. No previous knowledge of anatomy is needed. \nThe Buttafly will be provided for use during the workshop. \nAbout Loulou James MCSP\nLoulou James is a Spine Health Specialist\, retired physiotherapist\, yoga teacher\, educator and founder of the Buttafly.
