New Year half day retreat – walking and yoga in the beautiful Sussex countryside
with Nicky Crabb
In need of some time and space to decompress and rejuvenate as we settle into the New Year? Want an opportunity to focus on you? Would you relish the opportunity to have some time outdoors in nature followed by a nourishing yoga practice?
Relax and unwind with Nicky on a gorgeous half day new year countryside retreat at the stunning eco-village hall in the Sussex village of Barcombe, looking out over the River Ouse and beyond to Ashdown Forest. The morning will start with a revitalising walk from the hall around the nearby reservoir, arriving refreshed at the hall ready to enjoy a hot cup of tea. Nicky will lead a rejuvenating yoga session including pranayama and yoga nidra (yogic sleep) to send you off into your afternoon totally chilled out and refreshed. Home made cake and energy balls will be provided too!
Price: £33 for VS newsletter readers – a deposit of £5 in advance to secure a space
Timing: 9.30 am meeting at Barcombe Village Hall car park for a leisurely walk. The morning will be finished by 1pm.
Please wear comfortable clothes and bring shoes/boots suitable for walking in winter, the ground near the hall can be quite muddy. All yoga equipment will be provided. If you would like to bring your own mat, you are more than welcome to do this.

February
Join Vajrasati Senior Yoga Teacher Khadine Morcom for a 2 hour Yoga practice that explores Yogic Lunar symbolism and the internal qualities of the moon. The moon provides rich symbolism in yoga and meditation traditions. From internal energy body symbolism to representations of illumination, abundance, auspiciousness, purity and enlightenment. The time of the full moon is a traditional time for ritual and reflection as it is considered a powerful time for spiritual practice and transformation. In this workshop we will tap into the internal qualities of the moon through explorative and intuitive yoga āsana with a focus on the representation and experience of the moon in the energy body and yoga philosophy. We will attune to the subtle doorway that is offered at this time to deepen and further our practice through meditation, prāṇāyāma, mantra and yoganidrā. You can expect to have a fully rounded yoga practice that will tune you into your own internal cycles as the microcosmic representation of the macrocosmic nature's cycles. This is one of the best times of the month to experience a true sense of fullness and clarity in our practice. I do hope that you can join us!

Focus and Feel: A Yoga and Yoganidrā practice
with Khadine Morcom
Join Khadine for a luxurious 90 minute class to really let go of the week and enter into the weekend feeling relaxed, replenished and yoga'd! Khadine will take you through a slow but quietly strong class of yoga āsana (posture) with explorative and intuitive movement followed by some prāṇāyāma (breathwork) and yoganidrā (yogic sleep - basically a verbally guided, reclined meditative practice - pretty perfect for a Friday night!). You can expect to leave feeling like a new person! Khadine’s teaching style is very calming, supportive and focused, encouraging full release combined with full engagement, with a strong emphasis on the breath. Energy and intuition are at the heart of her teaching. Khadine has been practicing yoga since the mid 90s, teaching since 2004 and training teachers since 2014. She has a masters degree in yoga and meditation traditions from SOAS University and she also delivers yoganidra teacher training and runs a year long immersion in tantric meditation practices via the medium of the wisdom goddesses of the śakta tantra traditions of South Asia.
