Suitable for beginners
Inspired by the Fire element in Traditional Chinese Medicine, this summer practice is an invitation to open, connect, and move with a sense of warmth and vitality. Summer carries bright, expressive energy. It’s a time to nurture joy, support emotional connection, and come back to the heart.
In this workshop with Alexandra, you’ll be guided through practices that gently open the body and create space through the chest, shoulders, and upper back. Together, we’ll explore ways to balance the intensity of summer energy while supporting a sense of ease, connection, and authentic expression.
Workshop Focus:
• SMFR & BackMitra for chest, arms, neck, and upper back to open the heart space
• Yin postures for Heart & Small Intestine meridians
• Restorative practices to balance heightened summer energy
• Somatic practices exploring joy, connection, and authentic expression
• Meditation to cultivate warmth, compassion, and emotional coherence
Outcomes:
You’ll leave feeling more open through the chest and upper body, with a greater sense of ease in your breath and posture. As the body softens, there is space to connect more fully with yourself and others, supporting a deeper sense of warmth and belonging. You may notice a lightness in your mood and a renewed capacity for joy, along with a clearer, more authentic expression of how you feel. Overall, the practice offers a sense of uplift and alignment, helping you feel connected, energised, and anchored in the heart.
