Workshops

Deepen your experience

I offer monthly weekend workshops to deepen our practice, understanding and experience of our body-mind and allow for more time to unwind, relax and release.

A lovely opportunity for self-care and a nourishing way to let our Sunday morning unfold with more ease.

“Claudia is an empathetic and skilled teacher, with an innate ability to communicate with great clarity and insightfulness. I find her use of visual imagery incredibly helpful.

She is aware of and attentive to each person in the class and devotes time to give individual guidance. This means that the Sunday workshops have the feel of a personal session, and are a joy to participate in.”

Gretton Yoga Day with Bill Wood

Moving with the Breath

The more we find ways to relax and release into yoga postures, the more the natural tidal movements of our breath can start to emerge and guide us in our practice.

Blending anatomical explanation with experiential understanding, this workshop will be posture based, with periods of relaxation and sitting practice woven in.

A yoga teacher since 1994, Bill runs in-person and online classes from his base in south Devon, teaches workshops and retreats all around the UK, and offers individual mentoring for teachers and experienced students from his home or on Zoom.

While inspired by many different yoga and meditation traditions, Bill’s main influence has been the teachings of the late Vanda Scaravelli, and he continues to study with Sandra Sabatini, one of her longest standing students.

Before that he studied for 18 years with Diane Long, trained over many years with Sophie Hoare and John Stirk, and is also qualified as a Yoga Therapist (YBT), as a Sivananda Yoga Teacher, and as a Core Process Psychotherapist.

Away from his mat he also mentors in the world of outdoor education and nature connection, recently completed a training in Parts Work (IFS) and, in his down time, can often be found wandering on Dartmoor with a scruffy lurcher, or paddling a canoe down towards the sea.

A Course with John Stirk

John Stirk

Is a yoga teacher and author with a background in Osteopathy. John’s work highlights the power of group work and the potential insight that arises spontaneously within the group field. He points to the value of group energy and our potential for ‘moving beyond’ when practicing in the company of others.
John has been teaching in the UK and internationally for 45 years, has run many courses for teachers, and is the author of several books, notably The Original Body, Primal Movement for Yoga Teachers (2015) and Deeper Still, Authentic Embodiment for Yoga teachers (2021)

 

“Having practised yoga on and off for many years I am now hooked on this thoughtful style of yoga which is gentle yet also strong. Over an extended period of time in the 2 hour workshop there is the opportunity to explore and develop movement in a way which is liberating and powerful. I have been surprised at what it has been possible to do and to feel within these Sunday sessions.”
