SAMADHI YOGA STUDIOS

New Therapists

Therapy Room

 
Therapies €45 per hour!

We are excited to announce that we have 4 new therapists in our Dublin studios. Ciara Long is in every Tuesday and Thursday, and Pablo, Francisco & Maria, who call themselves The Remedial Massage Team, are in every other day.

As a special bank-holiday deal The Remedial Massage Team are offering 1/2 hour massages for €18 and 1 hour massages for €33 this Saturday Sunday and Monday. No Way! Yes Way! Its a crazy deal I know, but they really want to get working on you, and with a price like that how can you refuse?! To book a bank-holiday massage you can contact The Remedial Massage Team here.

That deal is just for the bank-holiday, the rest of the time all the therapists charge just €25 for 1/2 hour and €45 for 1 hour, still the best deal in town.
Retreats
Yoga on Inismor!

First up we have some workshops this and next weekend. 

On Sunday morning Kevin Durkin is guiding us through inversions and pranayama (breathing techniques), an area that rarely gets the exposure it deserves. 

On bank-holiday Monday morning we have internationally renowned Matthew Sweeney teaching his own Vinyasa yoga sequence, Chandra Krama.  

On 7-8 August we are having a meditation retreat weekend with Thanissara. Some of you will remember Thanissara from before, she led a meditation evening in aid of her Kuphuka Project, a South African Aids outreach, and this weekend is also a fund raiser for the same project. The weekend is broken into 4 sessions, which can be attended individually. There are 2 morning yoga sessions included, taught by Kerstin from our Drogheda studio.

Greg canceled his Lough Erne trip as he had 7 cancellations over 2 days and it just felt like the enthusiasm was not there.

Our annual Aran trip on the other hand is booked out with 27 attending, it should as usual be a brilliant weekend. If you are interested we can put you on the waiting list.

 Greg is heading to the Burren Yoga Centre for 2 trips this Autumn, in September and November. The Burren has a lovely light filled yoga room, fantastic food and, well, the Burren on your doorstep!

Teacher Profile

Babs
BARBARA "BABS" CAROLAN

I started practicing yoga and Pilates about five years ago in my mid 30s initially to try and alleviate back pain, never did I imagine that my body and mind were going to undertake such rewarding changes.

I went to my first Ashtanga weekend workshop in the Burren in 2004 and felt amazing afterwards (but aching). I knew this was the type of yoga for me, it’s challenging, vigorous and fast flowing yet I can free my mind from the endless thoughts by concentrating on the breath.

I immersed myself in the practice and when I heard of Teacher Training with Anthony Kearney I joined up purely to deepen my practice and understanding of yoga. It was a fantastic experience. I gained a huge amount of confidence, body awareness and teaching skills. I am teaching now two years and I am very enthusiastic to share the experience and benefits of yoga with others.

After accomplishing my yoga Diploma I have continued my studies doing intensive training with David Swenson, Anna Forest, Venketesh and traveled to India to study with Emil Wendel. I have also had the privilege to work with Danny Paradise, Lino Miele, Kino McGregor, Matthew Sweeney, Ray Tracey (RIP), David Life and many more. As a dedicated student and teacher I am traveling to Thailand in January 2008 to begin my advanced training with Paul Dallaghan.

I also have continued my Pilates practice and in 2006 I attained my Pilates Diploma with Progressive Pilates Academy (Bodyfirm, Dublin).

I would like to thank all my teachers and friends I have met on this yoga journey.

Babs teaches Hot Yoga in our Drogheda studio.
