Kirbanu – Candlelit Yin & Live Music

Drop into a Deep Calm this December with a delicious 2 hr Yin Yoga event by Karen Gunter and International Musician and Yogi Kirbanu

Friday 20 December 2019
7:00 pm – 9:00 pm

Press Pause from the busyness of the holiday period

A beautiful collaboration between Yoga Garage creator, Karen Gunter and musician and yogini, Kirbanu will include a combination of soothing live music, meditation and Yin Yoga, inviting you to leave the world behind for a while and focus completely on yourself.

You will be invited to let go of doing and immerse in being.

Each asana gives you the time and space to relax, to give yourself up to the moment and let your breath flow freely. This allows you to come to inner peace and release yourself from all the tensions you hold on to.

In this 2 hour all levels Yin practice we’ll focus on supporting all of our bodies systems in a nourishing cycle that will leave you feeling refreshed and renewed.

BREATHE… 

You cannot breathe deeply and worry at the same time. 

Breathe. 

Let worry go. 

Breathe. 

Allow the love and intuition in.
