Fire
Fire has qualities of heat, strength and energy; it holds the potential for great change. Most commonly associated with it’s attribute of danger, when channeled well, it is used to heat us, nourish us by cooking our food and even to protect us paradoxically , by stopping the spread of forest fires. It also relates to the ‘fire of love’, and the energy in the heart – the truly transformative power of love, the heat of passion.
As you can imagine, those with a lot of fire in their temperament, are enthusiastic, courageous and creative. Whilst too much of this element can cause you to be irritable, jealous and angry.
​
We honor the fire element at the studios by the heart-felt warmth of our welcome to you! My hope being, that in some way your experience here, no matter how small, will be transforming for you on your life’s journey. Energetically we will be providing hatha and vinyasa yoga classes at a beginner’s and intermediate level to grow your sense of wellbeing and strength; also to connect you in a heartfelt way, either remotely or in person, with other participants at the studios.
Any hatha yoga poses associated with heart opening, support this element, but also Virabhadrasana (the warrior poses) and Surianamaskar (sun-salutations), which are warming and strengthening.
