Daphne will facilitate movement, breathwork, somatic exploration with the application of alignment, functional & embodied anatomy, as well as classical yogic texts on the subtle body to uncover the various aspects of yoga as therapy.
 
Mindful, compassion and deep listening are tools we will cultivate to create the sanctity of a therapeutic relationship through the art of touch. The hands-on work will be one that honours both the carer and the receiver in an intuitive dance of exploration and inner healing.

This will be an immersion for those who would like to experience the intricate expressions of therapeutic yoga for transformation and healing. ​We will look into conditions such as - 
  • Spinal issues and back pain
  • Lower back pain and related causes such as sciatica / herniated discs
  • The Psoas as an expression of our core essence
  • Injuries & the fascia network
  • Understanding our nervous system and dealing with stress
  • Managing digestive issues

You will be able to apply these tools for teaching yoga or movement, self-care, or in offering bodywork to support your clients and your loved ones.
