Sara has been using Myofascial Release, Yoga and Meditation/Mindfulness for many years as way of managing pain and her relationship with it, to enhance recovery and improve her wellbeing.

She will take you through a 2h session that will include a grounding meditation practice with breathwork and body awareness and a slow intuitive yoga flow. You will then explore Myofascial release. 

Myofascial release is a form of pressure massage, that helps to break down ‘sticky’ fascia and tension in muscles. You will learn how to use self-myofascial release techniques, with balls, blocks and blankets, to help with range of motion, injuries, scar tissues, tension, muscle recovery and function, connect you with your body and help you to de-stress, and to stimulate the parasympathetic nervous system, which promotes recovery, relaxation, sleep and digestion.

The workshop will finish with a small Yin and Restorative yoga practice and relaxation to nurture you and to help you to end the week fully restored. 

Props will be provided in the studio. If you are joining from home, you will need 1-2 tennis balls/ massage ball or at least a pair of socks that you can fold. 

Any specific requests of areas of the body to work on in the Myofascial Release can be send by 25th March.
