Dru Dance with Mona Fairholme
Sunday 8th July 2012, 10-4pm
Dru Dance

We are delighted to welcome Mona Fairholme back to Yorkshire Yoga to lead a day of Dru Dance. We think this will be something different, exciting and fun – not your average day of yoga!

Mona is one of the most experienced practitioners and teachers of yoga in our region, having been teaching Dru yoga for over 12 years and training teachers since 2006.

Dru Yoga helps to keep you strong, healthy and stress free. It helps you become the best YOU can be. Dru Dance is a dynamic, fast-flowing, full-body workout to music. We will spend the day learning a particular sequence.

Please bring a vegetarian dish to share for lunch.

Please be aware that although this style of yoga dance can be adapted to some extent it is very physical and may therefore not be suitable for some health conditions and is not suitable in pregnancy. Please contact us to see if it’s for you.

Tibetan Healing Exercises (Kum Nye, Lu Jong and Tsa Lung) derive from Tibetan Medical, Meditation and Yoga traditions. They combine energy yoga, self massage, and pranayama. They aim to develop vitality and balance and can be used for self healing, deep relaxation and preparation for meditation.

This course will present a wide range of Tibetan Healing Exercises and related practices in a structured progression. The days will be mostly practical, and will introduce many new exercises as well as review and deepen the experience of familiar exercises.

During the morning and later part of the afternoon we will normally work with the Tibetan Healing Exercises and their principles, in the early afternoons we will examine meditation and lifestyle instructions from respectively the Mahamudra and Lojong (Mind Training) traditions.
