Yoga Stretch
A welcoming approach to all level students, Samsara offer Yoga Stretch which focuses on relaxing ones muscles into a deep stretch into the fascia (connective tissues) allowing any built up tension to be released throughout the body. This class will assist with mobility, flexibility and overall body movements.
Breathing Exercises
Meditation expert and founder of Soul Alive, Luke McLeod suggests breathing exercises and meditation are really best friends. They complement each other perfectly. It's kind of like the horse and the carriage. Where the breathing exercise comes before the meditation. Laying the foundation and setting you up to have the best possible meditation experience. It does this by releasing a lot of built-up physical tension within the body. This can be as simple as a few long, deep and intentional breaths or a more intensive exercise like 'breath of fire' (short, sharp breaths in and out of the nose).
Water Workouts
Fluid Running is a fun, high energy workout that is done in a pool or in water that it at least 5ft deep. The workout has revolutionised exercise in the water with their variety of instructor-led and motivated workouts. There are plenty of workouts online to choose from that range between 30 minutes to 1.5 hours and combine moderate aerobic running sets with high-intensity intervals and sprints along with several other movements to challenge different muscle groups. This innovative system includes an app with how-to videos, music-backed, instructor-led audio workouts, waterproof headphones, and a flotation belt (for the deep water program). The newly introduced shallow water program does not require any equipment.
