Nature Isle Yoga with Martha

Over the years , before I decided to live here, I discovered some wonderful inspiring spots for my yoga practice. This  is one of them – stretching and re-balancing after a hike on the old trail usd by villagers before the roads were cut to move from Riviere Cyrique to Bout Sable, on the wilder Atlantic  East Coast, the birthplace of my father.

After having completed my MA in yoga psychology in India in 2004, I returned here to learn how the beauty of this nature isle enhances and opens up anyone’s yoga practice. You just breath with lungs of the rainforest and let nature take the strain. It is through being on this island, that I have come to realise the depth to which I can become disconnected from my body, and trapped in stale uninspiring stories of my huge mind.

Before practising Satyananda yoga, I was an Iyengar yoga student for many years and once served as a trustee director for the Iyengar Maida Vale Centre in London.

RAINFOREST YOGA

I create rainforest yoga experiences for

I now conduct private yoga classes and design a range of half day or full day workshops to suit a small group who wish to deepen awareness of themselves in a natural setting – it beats a noisy sweaty gym hands-down!

My holistic approach includes stretching, breathing and meditation practices that will set you up or enable you to recover from the days’ activities and adventure. The poses and experiences also enhance your appreciation of the volcanic energy of the island – we can go down to the hot magma of the earth or meditate on a piece of sweet fruit to expand your senses.

PRIVATE CLASS

100 USD for up to 2 people in Roseau Valley area. Tailored class. Mats provided. Transport costs extra, relaxing meditative spots available at various locations across the island. Local juice or fruit provided.

PERSONAL RETREATS

Falling off the tarmac road of life (job loss, retirement, divorce), can leave you feeling lost, and adrift. And this is also an opportunity to launch into a profound inner inquiry into who you are and what you are really here to do which may have nothing to do with all the qualifications/skills you have been busy acquiring) . This can done with greater ease and fun, and rigorous inquiry through the outer and inner experiences I co-design with you on a 3 day or 7 day spiritual journeying retreat which takes in the beauty and nurturing energy of Dominica (imagine letting go of all your stress with nightly baths in the warm sulphur pools).
