THE RISING FOREST: YOGA SPRING WORKSHOP
11 April 2026, 10:00-13:00 (UK time)
WITH JEAN & JAMES rafael
ONLINE LIVESTREAM · WITH RECORDING AVAILABLE
£35
This three-hour online workshop combines breath-led vinyasa yoga, somatic movement, and qigong (similar to tai-chi), guided by Traditional Chinese Medicine and the energy of spring.
Spring brings momentum, growth, and change. It can feel energising, but also unstable. In this workshop, we explore how to meet that rising energy with steadiness, flexibility, and clarity.
Like a tree, we practise rooting into the ground while allowing upward movement. Through flowing movement, breath, qigong, and reflection, we work with the body’s own intelligence and seasonal rhythms to support resilience, adaptability, and direction.
What we will share and explore:
Grounded, fluid movement that supports our ability to rise yet stay stable
Somatic tools for working with change and momentum
Qigong practices for clarity, vision, and emotional flow
What you may discover:
A clear felt sense of rooting and rising, and how this is anchored in the breath
Simple practices to support you through spring that you can repeat at home
Reflection to cultivate greater steadiness and direction for the season ahead
