Wednesday 11th December 10-11.30am. Regular classes coming in 2025

The Hidden Language of Hatha Yoga offers a meditative practice that views the body as a spiritual tool.

The practice promotes alignment, calmness, and spiritual insight, and is open to all levels. Please wear comfortable clothing and bring a journal, pen, mat, cushion, and blanket.
Pre-booking is essential due to small, personal class sizes.

Hatha Yoga, The Hidden Language 10-11.30 Dream Exploration Workshop 1-3.30pm
Attend one or both classes either on line or in person.
Dream Yoga is a way to get in touch with your Higher Self through the involvement and analysis of your dreams. Analyzing the content of dreams is the most direct means of learning to understand your self. By combining yoga techniques and practices with an investigation of symbolism, Dream Yoga opens up a dialogue with the unconscious mind. It is a detailed method of interpreting the messages of your subconscious to create change in your waking life. The yogic method of working with dreams emphasizes independence and stresses understanding yourself as an individual. Dreams are personal creations, and as you study them you learn the language of your unconscious. Making your own discoveries is a very joyful process and gives you the courage to go on. By finding answers within, you gain self-confidence.

TEACHER BIOGRAPHIES
JaneCatherine Aldiss started practicing hatha yoga in 1991 and started teaching yoga in 1999. She has studied with internationally recognized teachers around the world.
JaneCatherine is a Yasodhara Yoga Teacher, and a CPD teacher for the British Wheel of Yoga. She teaches The Hidden Language of Hatha Yoga, Kundalini Yoga and Dream Yoga workshops in the Yasodhara Yoga tradition. She teaches remedial yoga on a 1-2-1 basis, drawing from years of experience as a body worker and studying and assisting with teaching anatomy to yoga teachers.
“I discovered one of Swami Radha’s books in the local library (In the Company of the Wise) in May 2015, and by the time I was half way through, knew that I had to go to Yasodhara Ashram to do the three month Yoga Development Course, which I attended in 2016. I returned to the UK after a five month stay. I went back to the ashram in 2017 for the Dream and Kundalini Training, in 2018 for the Hidden Language of Hatha Yoga Training, and in October 2019 took four of my friends and students to the ashram, three of whom participated in the 10 Days of Yoga Journey https://www.yasodhara.org/study/10-day-yoga-journey/ and one, in the One Month Karma Yoga Programme https://www.yasodhara.org/karma-yoga/one-month-introduction/
The Yasodhara teachings have changed my life in extraordinary ways, and continue to do so. I am deeply committed to bringing them forward in my European community both in person and on line, so that others can experience these transformational practices.”

James
I was inspired to take up yoga aged 21 by my parents whilst living in France. Seven years later, in 2005, I first stayed at Yasodhara Ashram during a gap year in Canada. I returned to participate in the 2008 Yoga Development Course, remaining at the ashram for most of 2008 and 2009, undertaking karma yoga and completing my teacher certification.
I return to the ashram every 3-4 years to refresh my experience and connection, and am supported on a regular basis by a network of fellow yogis stretching from Vancouver Island to Nagano. I have previously been on the Radha House Association board, including in the role of President.
I currently lead a fortnightly book group as well as initiating the weekly Divine Light Invocation practice group, both sessions being online.
More information on these can be found on the “online classes and satsangs” page of this site: yasodharayoga.org/europe/classes-satsangs/
I have also been responsible for organising YYEN’s first online retreats: yasodharayoga.org/europe/online-classes/

Introduction to the Kundalini System May 24 Aylsham Norfolk
Kundalini Yoga, approached with the method developed by Swami Radha, is a well-structured practice that leads to the expansion of consciousness and the development of the potential that resides untapped within each of us.
By reflecting on the images of the chakras and exploring the symbolism, elements, senses and mantras associated with them, we can clarify the mind and access intuition and inner wisdom, to understand and guide our lives.
Kundalini Yoga is the path to freedom. An esoteric and much misunderstood yoga, Kundalini Yoga is in fact a practical and powerful tool for self-development. Swami Radha has developed an approach that takes the wisdom of this ancient system and makes it accessible to daily life. In Kundalini Yoga, you investigate your own mind and consciousness.
