Yoga for Back Care: Upper Back, Neck + Shoulders Workshop
Friday 28 October 7.45 - 9.45pm at triyoga camden
Friday 28 October 7.45 - 9.45pm at triyoga camden
Tension, tightness around the neck and shoulders are common symptoms of modern living, which does not help by the increasingly sedentary lifestyle and electronics. Tension around the jaw is often a stress related response. At a physiological level, muscles along the upper back may become chronically tight which affect breathing efficiency, and unnecessary tension along the neck, shoulders and jaw. Some may feel the need to take a deep breath or sigh every so often. These symptoms has a direct and profound effect on self-esteem, confidence and view of the world.
In this workshop, we will practise various tension release poses, followed by mobilisation and elongation. We will then explore ways to balance asymmetrical patterns in our body, and work towards strengthening poses through asana and breathing practices. Adelene will guide participants through a journey of the upper body, and shall discuss how this may be integrated into daily living. For all levels, suitable for kyphoscoliosis.

Introduction to Restorative Yoga + iRest Yoga Nidra with ADELINE Cheong + James Reeves
Sunday 18 December 10.00 - 5.00pm at triyoga Camden
Sunday 18 December 10.00 - 5.00pm at triyoga Camden
This workshop incorporates two practices where the focus is on restoration and renewal. In the morning, Adelene will share her knowledge and experience of Restorative Yoga: the art of relaxation, informed by western science and experienced and tested by practitioners of all ages. To deepen your understanding of ‘active rest’, Adelene will offer an experiential practice sequence. From there, you will transition into an iRest Yoga Nidra practice led by James.
James will lead the afternoon session, showcasing iRest Yoga Nidra, a transformative practice of deep relaxation and meditative inquiry that releases negative emotions and thought patterns. Calms the nervous system and develops a deep capacity to meet and be at ease with life’s many challenges. Adelene and James will seamlessly integrate another Restorative Yoga session and iRest Yoga Nidra practice together in this afternoon session.
This will be a deeply nourishing and profound experience, so be prepared to leave feeling better friends with yourself; refreshed, relaxed and at ease.
James has over a decade’s yoga teaching experience and is one of the UK’s leading authorities on yoga nidra. His classes combine inspiration drawn from his teachers (including Richard Miller, Mukunda Stiles, Kali Ray, Donna Farhi and Rod Stryker) together with insights gained on his own yogic journey. James sees yoga as our opportunity to engage with a deep sense of interconnected wholeness, both within ourselves and the world around us, and his classes seek to help us live the essence of our true nature: welcoming, open, spacious and free from judgment and conditioning.

Sunday 22 January 2017 10.00 - 5.00pm at The Light Centre MOORgate (Yogacampus event)
Sunday 22 January 2017 10.00 - 5.00pm at The Light Centre MOORgate (Yogacampus event)
Can yoga improve the condition of scoliosis? How does one practice yoga with scoliosis? Does it help, and yield sustainable long term results? What about the frustration, depletion, self-consciousness, disharmony that one can experience? As someone with scoliosis,these are some of the questions Adelene had and would like to share with you in this one day workshop open to teachers and practitioners alike.
With open discussions held within a safe sharing environment, Adelene will share her journey and experience. We will learn and understand practising with scoliosis, explore how the therapeutic effects of yoga can be applied specifically to structural / functional imbalances. This non-invasive approach to the condition could potentially help to alleviate physical discomfort, recalibrate and re-map postural alignment, re-establish and refine balance, release emotional psychological tension on practising and living with scoliosis.
The intention of this workshop is to offer insights into the spinal health of those with scoliosis, as well as modified practices to improve the symptoms of scoliosis and restorative postures to balance and rejuvenate. Through years of training, research, teaching, self-study and dedicated practice, Adelene has successfully helped herself and many others reclaim freedom (physically, emotionally and mentally), hope and empowerment within themselves.
