Meanwhile, perhaps a workshop? Tailored workshops at your office? Stress relieving weekend? Read under more and contact me (liisa(at)lumoyoga.com).  Let's organise something special just for your needs! 

Short workshops with special themes! Tailored for your needs.

• Would you like to offer to your employees an afternoon with stress relieving program, suitable for everyone and tailored exactly to your needs? Workshop, courses online lessons, including both activating and relaxing elements, talking about increasing well-being. Perhaps a relaxing session (possible with live music played by viola), breathing, yoga asanas and mindfulness, and a lecture, how to bring  all this together?
• Create your own weekend of well-being with a group of friends. Take together a crash course for yoga for beginners, where you really learn the basics well and safely. Or go deeper into your practice with friends who practiced already for a while.

Workshops for musicians

Concentrating on the particular needs of musicians and body awareness.

Learning easy but effective stretches and exercises for every day use, especially designed for the use of musicians. 

Small groups for more individual guidance and intimate experience, experienced teacher, great food and beautiful accommodation with sauna. 

Shake off the winter stress and kickstart your summer with a refreshed mind! Enjoy yoga sessions, breathing exercises, mindfulness and meditation, delicious vegetarian/vegan meals, and of course, old wood-fired traditional Finnish sauna. All this in an old major house in the middle of fields and forests. Embrace a holistic journey to wellness in a guidance of internationally experienced teacher in a truly beautiful and quiet setting.

Restorative and energizing summer start!

• Calm but powerful yoga asana lessons. Asanas can be adapted to suit participants of different levels
• Pranayama - breathing exercises, meditation, mindfulness
• Get a good start to your home yoga routine for the rest of the summer!
• With normal basic condition and an open mind, even a beginner can keep up. Those who have been practicing yoga for long time will deepen their own practice and certainly gain new perspectives and ideas
• We will be served high-quality vegetarian food and there's possibility to enjoy traditional Finnish  wood fired sauna.

All yoga lessons are calm but including strong exercises and long holds, as well as (semi-)restorative part and deep relaxation. We will also study the technique of asanas (how to move safe and anatomically better). There will be some yoga philosophy and traditions included and integrated in the lessons.

The final yoga program is determined by the level, experience, wishes and energy of the participants!

• There are domestic animals on the farm. You can get to know them, which is nice, but because of this, you can't get completely allergy-free rooms, even though of course animals don't come in the bedrooms.
• Please note that the group's program is designed for participants with physically normal basic condition and health. If in doubt, please ask. Perhaps we will find a solution and modifications for the practice in a small group! 

YOGA IN THE RETREATS

One of the themes and purposes of this retreat is to learn about ourselves and cultivate the conscious awareness. This means that we will also study asanas carefully, not just "do something somehow". The classes are based on Iyengar yoga principles with careful alignment of the individual body, as well as more simple hatha yoga style. During my 20 years of teaching, I have developed an intuitive feeling of the group and its' needs, as well as designed my own yoga based exercises. Every class is different, depending on the energy and level of the group and there will be something for everyone. We will start with easy going classes but there will be strong and calm Iyengar style classes, more flowing classes as well as (semi)restorative classes. Yoga system, how to deal with our body, mind and energy, will be integrated in the lessons and we might talk a bit about other aspects of the yoga philosophy as well.

The retreat is open for all levels but the basic knowledge of asanas and moderate condition would be helpful. The retreat is for 6-8 persons only to ensure the private attention to everyone.

Designed to support your home practise especially Yoga for Musicians' courses and after the workshops.
