Elementary Experiences

Exploring the Elements:

Yoga

&

Creative Dance

Workshops.

Join senior Yoga and Creative Dance Teacher, Peter Hockey, for 2 workshops exploring the elements (bhutas: earth, air, fire, water, space) and how they may relate physically and metaphysically to humanity.

Through the inflluence of Dorotea Mangiamele, who applied yoga elemental theories to her yoga and creative dance teachings at Mangala Studios (est. 1970), Peter has developed his individual approach and philosphy for over 35 years of teaching creative dance and yoga.

Creative dance and yoga supplement and inform one another, however they are two separate disciplines with unique aims, Peter is therefore inviting students to explore these two complimentary workshops:

  • a morning session to explore the elements in a Mangala Dance format and

  • an afternoon session incorporating the elements with mantra, asana and pranayama.

Successful Mudra/Bandha Seminar

We were lucky to have an informative, stimulating and challenging seminar with Dr. Kausthub Desikachar from the KHYF in Chennai, India.

It was good to be practising and learning yoga philosophy and techniques again in the studios inwhich so much yoga experience has been undergone by so many people. We were grateful to Kausthub for making the trip.

We are looking to running another seminar in September next year. If you would like to be on the mailing list please contact Peter Hockey: peterjameshockey@gmail.com.
