Rocket Yoga Workshop
Join Suzy for a fun 2-hour Rocket workshop where she will guide you through a Rocket Yoga sequence, giving time to break down those tricky postures and transitions we might only have 5 breaths to try in a regular flow practice.
What is Rocket Yoga?
Rocket Yoga was developed by the late Larry Schultz and is based on the primary and intermediate series of Ashtanga Yoga. Coined the Rocket because 'it gets you there faster', the set sequences of Rocket provide a strong, well-rounded practice of postures, adaptable for all levels, with plenty of opportunities to have some fun with inversions, arm-balances and funky transitions along the way.
Suzanne has completed multiple Rocket Yoga trainings under David Kyle and the Yoga People and is passionate about sharing the practice with the yoga community in Dublin.
Although this is a modified practice, it is not recommended for beginners.
Yin & Nidra with Nicky

This meditative practice is a simple and soft way to reduce stress. As we know, feeling well-rested is incredible and can help us so much with our day to day lives (it is said that 30 minutes of Yoga Nidra is equal to 3 hours sleep) but Yoga Nidra can also improve symptoms of anxiety and depression for many people who practice it.
Surrender to sleep with Gracie
This sleepy practice will help soothe even the most frazzled nervous system. In restorative poses your nervous system gets a chance to switch into rest and digest mode, deep healing and rest can be cultivated while doing very little!
Yoga nidra which is a calming state between being awake and on the cusk of sleep, will help you surrender even more softly into your weekend.

Myo-yin workshop with Sile Nolan
Fascia is a fibrous connective tissue that permeates the body, providing structure and support. The fascial system surrounds and interweaves between all organs, muscles, bones and nerve fibers in the body. When fascia becomes tight or restricted due to injury, stress, inflammation or trauma, it can lead to pain, stiffness, reduced mobility and other symptoms.
Yin yoga is a slow practice of deep stretching which targets the ligaments, joints, deep tissue and this fascial network of the body. Myofascial release is a type of physical therapy that manipulates the fascia, aiming to relieve knots and tension in the body's myofascial tissues. MFR triggers cycles of repair and remodelling for the tissues.
In this workshop we will apply a number of myofascial techniques to different areas of the body to relieve tension and break up adhesions. We will combine this practice with yin poses to gently stress the tissues, increasing hydration in the fascia to improve physical function and mobility, and reduce pain and stiffness.
You will leave feeling like you have had a deep tissue massage, and you'll have the techniques to practice at home.
No prior experience is necessary. Please bring your yoga mat, a small towel, water and avoid wearing loose fitting tops as they hinder some of the ball-rolling techniques. MFR balls will be provided.
Any questions please email [email protected]
Breathwork & Soundbath with Sile
7pm- 8.15pm
€29 (20% all member's discount)
You will be guided through a few rounds of conscious connected breathwork before beginning your journey with the healing sounds of gongs, Tibetan bowls, crystal bowls and other sound healing instruments. Through the breath, sounds and vibrations, the brainwave state is altered from our normal waking state (beta) to relaxed state (alpha), dreamlike state (theta), and even restorative state (delta). As the mind and body relax, the heart rate and blood pressure decrease and we enter an altered state of consciousness where deep healing can occur.
Benefits of a sound bath include:
- soothes and regulates the nervous system
- induces deep relaxation
- reduces anxiety and stress
- entrains the brainwaves to a deep meditative heling state
- promotes the body's natural healing abilities
- stimulates cells in the body for repair and rejuvenation
- improves sleep and brain function
As you will be lying on the floor for 75 minutes, please bring anything you need to make yourself really comfortable. We have a bolster and blanket each, but maybe bring an extra blanket, pillow and eye mask, water and please bring your own yoga mat.
Doors will open 15 minutes before the workshop start time, and unfortunately no late entry will be possible.
Introduction to Supporting those Impacted by Cancer: Creating a safe space that supports the side effects with Victoria
According to Macmillan: ‘There are now an estimated 2.5 million people living with cancer in the UK, a figure that is projected to rise to 4 million by 2030. Thanks to advances in treatment, people are now living longer with a cancer diagnosis than ever before. [...] This trend is expected to continue’1
This workshop is open to all yoga and movement bodywork teachers and will look at how you can support those impacted by breast Cancer in your classes. As more people live longer with cancer and the side effects of cancer than ever before the support offered is often poor or even non-existent.2
This workshop is led by Vicky Fox, author of ‘Yoga For Cancer A-Z of C’( 2022). Vicky has been teaching yoga classes for those impacted by cancer since 2013 and running trainings for teachers since 2022.
This day course will specifically focus on the common side effects of treatment for cancer and how to support students with side effects such as fatigue, nausea, muscle loss, bone loss, peripheral neuropathy and lymphoedema.
Learning outcomes
- What is cancer? An overview of cancer and the types of cancer.
- Cancer Diagnosis and treatment including practicing yoga with picc lines, portacath or a stoma.
- Key side effects and how yoga can help.
- Fatigue and nausea are one of the most frequently reported side effect of treatment. Learn some tools to help with the common side effects.
- How to build back strength slowly and safely after periods of inactivity. Especially where there is a risk of osteoporosis.
- Opening armpits and groins, how this can help movement of blood, lymph and nerve impulses.
- Digestive discomfort, how can breathing and creating space help support the digestive system.
- How to modify a yoga practice and create a safe and compassionate environment for your students.
This course will not focus specifically on any specific type of cancer. Vicky runs a 40 hour training with yoga alliance professionals for anyone wanting to learn more or to set up specific classes for students impacted by cancer.

Yin & Nidra with Nicky
Sunday, October 20th
€25 - 20% Unlimited Member's Discount
Close your weekend with Yin Yoga, long, slow stretching, using the breath to open up joints and connective tissues in your body, followed by the practice of Yoga Nidra, or Dream Yoga, where you will experience a state of extreme relaxation through guided a meditation intended to get you to the state in between consciousness and sleeping. These are two deep practices that are said to be transformational for the body and mind.
We will begin Pranayama. 10 minutes Pranayama refers to breathing exercises which clear the physical and emotional obstacles in our body to free the breath and so the flow of prana - life energy. Then we will practice 75 minutes of Yin.
These postures are super restful and held for long periods of time. The long, passive holds activate our parasympathetic nervous system (our rest and digest system), as they work to soften and stretch our deepest layers of connective tissue, the fascia that connects our muscles and joints. Flexibility is often improved this way as we work with the exhalation to breathe into the postures
We will end together with 30 minutes of Yoga Nidra.
This meditative practice is a simple and soft way to reduce stress. As we know, feeling well-rested is incredible and can help us so much with our day to day lives (it is said that 30 minutes of Yoga Nidra is equal to 3 hours sleep) but Yoga Nidra can also improve symptoms of anxiety and depression for many people who practice it.
The class ends in blissful, relaxed silence. It is very common for some students to drift off to sleep for a few deeply restorative minutes in this class. Don't worry I will gently wake you up when its time :)

Cacao, Breathwork & Sound Bath with Sile
Bank holiday Monday, October 28th
3pm - 5pm
€39
Join Síle for a 2 hour workshop combining breathwork and sound with the healing medicine of cacao.
Cacao is a gentle heart-opening plant medicine that helps us to connect with our higher self and access our inner wisdom to bring about transformation on a mental, emotional and spiritual level. Sharing cacao and opening up to receive her gifts of healing can create strong feelings of connection, love and unity.
We will move through some conscious connected breathwork, and as we open up to the energy of the cacao, we will rest in the healing sounds of gongs, Tibetan bowls, crystal bowls and other sound healing instruments. Through these sounds and vibrations, the brainwave state is altered from our normal waking state (beta) to relaxed state (alpha), dreamlike state (theta), and even restorative state (delta). As the mind and body relax, the heart rate and blood pressure decrease and we enter an altered state of consciousness where deep healing can occur.
We will finish with some gentle stretches and tapping, and will allow time at the end for you to journal on any insights or messages you may have received during the experience.
As you will be lying on the floor for 90 minutes, please bring anything you need to make yourself really comfortable. We have bolsters and blankets, but maybe bring an extra blanket, pillow and eye mask, and of course your yoga mat, water and your journal.

Warm Yin & Sound with Sile
Sunday, November 3rd
6.45pm - 8.15pm
€29 (20% member's discount)
A 90-minute workshop combining a deep yin yoga practice and sound healing in our heated studio.
We will start with a nourishing yin practice accompanied by soothing sounds of the Tibetan and crystal bowls, and finish with a full sound immersion with a gong, Tibetan & crystal alchemy bowls, koshi chimes, an ocean drum and sansula.
Yin yoga is a gentle and meditative practice with a focus on function rather than aesthetics. It invites us to turn our gaze inwards and connect deeply with ourselves. The slow practice of deep stretching works on an energetic level to calm the nervous system, while physically targets the ligaments, joints, deep tissue and fascia and stimulates the meridian system.
Sound healing is an ancient form of therapy that works on a cellular and energetic level, entraining our body and mind to the healing frequencies and vibrations of the sound instruments.
The yin practice and healing sounds will all combine to help the body and mind release and let go of any stress or tension and bring the body into balance.
Bolsters and blankets will be provide, but feel free to bring anything extra for your own comfort - pillows, cushions, blankets, an eye pillow, and your own yoga mat.
Studio doors will be open from 6.30pm only, and will be locked at 6.45pm so we can start on time. Late entry unfortunately will not be possible.
