Godfrey Devereux at Red Earth Centre Paris
I am thrilled to announce Godrey’s return to Paris. Through many years of practice and inquiry, Godfrey Devereux has developed the Dynamic Yoga Method (www.dynamicyoga.com), and has been my teacher since 1996. His teaching is exceptional, and if you are passionate about yoga, these workshops are not to be missed. It is also a rare opportunity to be a student in a small group with this internationally recognised teacher.
Friday February 28th 2014 6.30pm-9pm RADICAL ENQUIRY
Taking place as a dialogue between your unconscious and your conscious mind the Radical Enquiry will painstakingly and systematically expose, discredit and dismantle the false ideas, beliefs, prejudices and assumptions by which your wisdom, happiness and freedom are habitually obscured. As they fall away they take with them the roots and possibility of shame, guilt, resentment, contempt, pride, regret, manipulation, hostility, animosity, exploitation, blame, anxiety and despair. All you need do is hear clearly and acknowledge fully with your own mind the truth that lies in your own heart. Within the clear and simple framework of the Radical Enquiry this is very easy to do.
WEEKEND WORKSHOP THEME:
THE AWAKENING OF INTELLIGENCE: Intelligence is what you most deeply are, and yet the intelligence of your mind is the cause of so many avoidable problems. The solution to these problems (guilt, shame, anxiety, depression etc) is to ground the intelligence of the mind in its source, the intelligence of consciousness. There is no more simple and direct way to do this than by way of the intelligence of the body. This workshop will present Yoga Posture Praxis as somatic self enquiry, within which the intelligence of the mind will be invited to let go into the intelligence of consciousness by way of sensitive action within the movements and shapes of Yoga Posture Praxis. This workshop will be progressive through each session, yet each session will be complete in itself and suitable for practitioners of all experiences and capabilities.
SATURDAY 1st March MORNING 10.00-13.00: Awakening the intelligence of the body. This session will be based on the clarification of the Dynamic of Integrity to yoga posture practice.
SATURDAY AFTERNOON 14.30-17.30 Awakening the intelligence of the mind. This session will include internalising yoga posture practice, pranayama and meditation.
SUNDAY 2nd March MORNING 10.00-13.00 Integrating the intelligence of body and mind. This session will be based on application of the Dynamic of Integrity to yoga posture practice.
SUNDAY AFTERNOON 14.30-17.30 Integrating the intelligence of body and mind and consciousness. This session will be based on pranayama and meditation.
MONDAY MORNING 3rd March 9am – 12 noon
GUIDED SELF PRACTICE Godfrey will talk through a practice series suitable as the basis for daily self practice for anyone who has assmilated the Dynamic of Integrity as their basis for action in Yoga Posture Praxis.
TARIF : Friday Radical Inquiry 30€
Saturday, Sunday and Monday ateliers: one atelier 45€ / two ateliers 85€ / three ateliers 120€ / four ateliers 150€ / five ateliers 185€
all four days : 195€
Jo Kemp, Senior Dynamic Yoga Teacher, at Red Earth Centre Paris
Following the success of her workshops at the Centre in September 2013, Jo Kemp, senior Dynamic Yoga teacher, is back due to popular demand and proposes two workshops:
Saturday 25th January 2014 2pm – 5pm The Bandhas
This workshop takes us progressively and experientialy into an exploration of the 3 overt and 3 covert bandhas. In yoga posture practice shape and form is evidently important yet for a shape to become a yoga posture depends much on the integrity of the body and a certain quality of awareness, depth of sensitivity and inquiry.
The Bandhas are a powerful unifying mechanism that transforms outer shape and internal awareness into the subtle yet profound inter-connectivity that is Asana.
Suitable for practitioners and teachers from all yoga backgrounds wishing to deepen their practice.
Sunday 26th January 10am – 1pm : Pranayama-Freeing the Breath
“ Transcending of the duality of the breath uncovers the inner light and initiates the mind into meditation” Patanjali.
In this dynamic yoga workshop we are invited into a deep and potent intimacy with the breath.
The habitual patterns of holding, controlling and resisting that often show up in the breath and are often revealed within yoga posture practice can be transcended by bringing a continuous sensitivity and open inquiry within the arena of breath/ movement synchronization.
In the first part of the workshop participants are guided through a powerful yet gentle sequence that opens and gently awakens the body in full support of the respiratory system.This is then followed by a deep yet accessible exploration of potent pranayama techniques, concluding with a guided meditation bringing a further elucidation and invitation to intimacy with the breath and therefore life.
All students, practitioners and teachers from all styles of yoga are very welcome and can benefit from this workshop.
Tarif : 40€/workshop or 70€ for both workshops

Dynamic Yoga workshops with Jo Kemp at Red Earth Centre
I am first in line for this workshop!
I am thrilled to announce that senior Dynamic Yoga teacher Jo Kemp will be giving two workshops in Paris at the Red Earth Centre: Saturday September 21st 9.30am – 1pm “The Spine”, and Sunday September 22nd 2pm- 5.30pm “The Dynamic Yoga Experience”. Jo has been practicing and studying yoga exclusively for more than 20 years, trains teachers and runs her own studio in Sitges, Spain www.nowbeyoga.com. She is one of only five senior Dynamic Yoga teachers.
I cannot recommend these workshops highly enough – please don’t miss this wonderful opportunity. Please read on for details.
Saturday September 21st 9.30am – 1pm “The Spine”:
The spine is central to our movement and experience. When the spine is carrying unhelpful and habitual postural and movement patterns the experience of our body can be less than pleasurable and we can often find ourselves in pain and discomfort or lacking in mobility.
In this workshop we explore specific sequencing to bring release to muscles that may overwork and awaken muscles that may be inactive. Moving towards balancing, mobilising and finally strengthening the spine.
Using yoga posture practice and pranayama we are guided to a deepened level of intimacy with the sensations in and around the spine, sensitising the mind to what’s actually happening in our unique bodymind.
If yoga posture practice is to release us from the imprints of life held within our structure and musculature, i.e high shoes, bags on one shoulder, accumulation of hours on the computer. It needs to be undertaken with a keen sense of listening to the whispers of sensation within the spine so that each movement and posture is a nourishing response to the needs of the spine. It needs to be undertaken with a sound knowledge of the actions needed in order for all parts of the body to fully support each other and the central core of movement which is the spine.
The workshop will include posture practice, pranayama, relaxation and clarifying discussion, exploration and demonstration.
Suitable for all levels of practitioner from those newly exploring yoga to advanced practitioners and teachers.
Sunday September 22nd 2pm- 5.30pm “The Dynamic Yoga Experience”:
Dynamic yoga supports a process of awakening on all levels.
It is a kind, intuitive and nourishing practice grounded in sound universal principles. Principles that gently re- calibrate and re-integrate the body, and also importantly begins a steady process of internalisation and potent inquiry.
A subtle somatic (of the body) method that supports a deeper understanding of the body, mind, and a deeper relaxation into what we are.
Suitable for all levels of practitioner from those newly exploring yoga to advanced practitioners and teachers.
cost: 50€ per workshop, or 85€ for both

from Australia to you…
I am back from a wonderful stay in Australia, I just love that place! I spent many beautiful moments practicing yoga on the beach and in the full nature that only an isolated Australian place can offer. I feel completely inspired and resourced, and impatient to see my students again!
My maternity leave drawing to a close, and I will be back to my yoga and shiatsu schedule from Monday September 2nd. The centre, as every year, is closed throughout the month of August and classes recommence from the beginning of September, with new classes and workshops. Enjoy the rest of the summer, and see you soon!

Atelier: Understanding energy and its effects in your body
Ce stage s’adresse aux tous qui s’intéressent à comprendre « l’énergie » et manipulation énergètique; les thérapeutes ou les coach, qui s’intéressent pour pouvoir apporter plus à vos clients, les professeurs du yoga pour la partie chakra et aura, ceux qui ont des soucis de santé, vous allez apprendre à corriger vous même la base d’énergie importante qui doit être corrigé pour rendre efficace tout les autre technique vous choissez d’entreprendre, dont les médicaments.
Le stage va se morceler les connaissances et l’expérience de Junnon sur la vision orientale des circuits énergétiques (méridiens), énergies subtiles et magnétiques de notre corps, et comment ces notions ont évolué aux Etats-Unis où elle a été formée. On va comprendre par les démonstrations et les jeux, et vous partez avec des outils importants.
Junnon sera heureuse de partager la base théorique et la pratique des exercices qu’elle a choisi pour ce stage, afin de vous sensibiliser et vous donner des outils concrets en rapport avec le thème de « l’énergie ». On va apprendre aussi l’utilisation de EFT, avec plus de points pour le rendre encore efficace.
La médecine Orientale a été développée depuis des temps très anciens en se basant sur l’étude des êtres vivants, et non pas sur l’étude de corps morts (anatomie via dissection). Elle se concentre donc sur l’énergie vitale. Junnon démontrera les énergies visuellement.
