    YogaSOMATICS Online Journey
    The Body as Home

    Aura Space (formerly Living Room Yoga) are delighted to present a 12-week body-oriented self-care and exploratory online journey.

    These experiential practices will be a nourishing blend of restorative and grounding yoga gestures and somatic movement practices sensing and shaping from the inside. Each class is a sensory experience and will offer an invitation to return to one’s own energetic field and “felt sense” of the body.

    YogaSOMATICS is a contemporary perspective of yoga that is immediate, fluid and experiential. It bridges traditional yoga, modern somatics, meditative techniques and inquiry towards conciousness. YogaSOMATICS encourages sensing and deep listening to make inner contact with oneself and the energetic body.

    The practice was founded by Ateeka whose work has been inspired by Continuum Movement founder, the late Emily Conrad, Gestalt psychotherapist Ruella Frank, Danish spiritual teachers, Jes Bertelsen and Madhurima Rigtrup and is currently a student of Helen Gamborg, author of the “Invisible Aspects of Healing”, inspired by Bob Moor’s teachings about the subtle body, energy medicine and healing.

    YogaSOMATICS offers spaces of containment and exploration through aware movements, breathing, relaxation, mindfulness, meditation and contact bodywork. It is a return to connect to one’s own bio energy, through slow and subtle movement in a first-person relational experience. It may appeal to those who are new to yoga or as a self-care body practice.

    Previous participants have described the practice as “transcendent”, “an exploratory space” and “a sensitive body practice”.

    Mondays 22nd, 29th January, 5th, 12th, 19th, 26th February 4th, 11th, 25th March & 1st, 8th & 15th April 2024

    Time: 6.30-7.30pm UK and Ireland / 7.30-8.30pm Spain via Zoom

    INVESTMENT:

    €180 for 12 weeks

    Zoom link and practicalities will be sent the day before the first class of the journey. Each class Zoom recording will be available for a 7-day playback.
