Craig’s gong baths at Yoga Sangha are consistently fantastic. His expertise creates a serene atmosphere where you can fully relax and immerse yourself in healing sounds. Craig’s personalised approach, variety of instruments, and consistent quality make each session truly exceptional. Highly recommended for anyone seeking relaxation and balance.

Gong Bath Meditations alter brain wave patterns from the Beta (waking state) to Theta & Delta (meditative) states. Science teaches that meditative brain frequencies enable us to access our deeper subconscious and superconscious, which are key states for healing.

The gong is one of the oldest musical instruments in the world. Based on ancient wisdom, gongs vibrate at frequencies our body latches on to allowing the mind and body the space to heal itself.



Andrew's feet are firmly planted within the 8 limbs of Astanga Yoga. A yoga teacher of many years practice trained to a level 4 diploma with the British Wheel of Yoga. He is a teacher with 30 years experience having worked with additional needs adults in a wide range of settings. Andrew now works part time as a yoga teacher in the local south Manchester area.

Ashtanga yoga is his primary practice, his teaching style follows a more somatic embodied approach. This is based on the first of the Yamas; Ahimsa,”Be kind to oneself.”

During the workshop Andrew will lead us through a more somatic (of the body), Intereoperspective practice using embodied language and embodied breathe. Techniques developed working with Debbie Farrer of Feel Now Yoga.

The first 90 minutes will take us through somatic movements in supine, semi supine, seated and standing sequences. The theme being ‘less is more’.

We will then take a 30 minute break

The second 60 minute sequence will follow a more familiar standing asana with modifications taken from the primary series.

The final 30 minutes includes a pranayama practice, short meditation and rotation of consciousness relaxation.

two options for attendance - on-line and studio

Qigong comprises of gentle flowing moving meditations with a focus on nature. We work with the five elements of Wood, Fire, Earth, Metal and Water. Balancing our inner cosmos and finding harmony and steadiness in our bodies and our lives.

The general format for these classes will be an introduction and explanation of traditional Chinese philosophy and Qigong to enrich the theme of the class. Followed by Qigong practise, finishing with meditation. Open to all levels.

This session will be offered under the Buddhist principle of dana. Dana is the act of generosity, reciprocity, and mutual support. With my teachings, I will offer what I hope will best support, guide and nourish you in this class. In exchange, you are invited to give an offering of dana that reflects the support, guidance and nourishment you feel you have received.

Yoga Sangha, in partnership with Yoga Nidhi, invites you to join us for a monthly Chanting Sangha, taught live online from Chennai, India. Sessions will be held on select Sundays once per month

These sessions will be a supportive, inclusive and interactive opportunity to listen and learn to chant confidently in Sanskrit.

The sessions will be built around short, simple yet powerful mantras that are accessible to all, useful for learning to read, and/or memorise the Sanskrit mantras, while also learning to chant confidently for yourself.
Ideally, regular attendance in these sessions will mean the content can gently increase in length/complexity to build skill. However, our aim is to keep these as stand-alone sessions so that whatever your level, whether you attend regularly or periodically, the sessions will be open and useful to you. The sessions will be held online/via Zoom. Students will have the opportunity to unmute and chant for themselves to receive direct support from the teacher, though this is not compulsory; especially if you are new to Sanskrit.

What if the physical postures of yoga were not just shapes we make with the body, but gateways to mastering the turbulent mind with grace and ease? 

This 2.5-hour workshop invites you to go beyond the gross physical of asana and explore the subtle energy of the body as a sacred container A Temple for Change – a place to cultivate inner peace and radiate it outward like ripples across water. 

We will explore how:

• The breath becomes the bridge between unconscious patterns of thought and a fully awakened, positive mind.
• The body can be re-inhabited as a safe space reconnecting to the innate intelligence we already are.
• The ancient yogis’ understood the opposing forces in the universe and how uniting these forces within the body helps us move through challenges on and off the mat with greater steadiness and ease.

Together, we will look at the subtle yet powerful role of the psoas and diaphragmatic lines — ribbons of connection that unify the pelvis, spine and breath. When these structures are opened and yielding, the body operates in greater harmony, supporting both physical integration and emotional resilience.

Through a blend of:

• Dynamic Ashtanga-inspired sequence to awaken and energise
• Techniques to connect with the pelvic floor and release deep holding patterns (physical and emotional) & optimise the breath
• Restorative practices to soften and balance
• Guided Breath and Sankalpa relaxation to close 

Creating the spaciousness needed for a deeper seated practice and fuller experience of all eight limbs of yoga.

We’ll finish with a live Q&A and social time, offering the chance to connect, reflect, and share with fellow practitioners. 

This is an opportunity to refine your practice, deepen your understanding of yoga beyond the physical, and reconnect to its essence as a path of integration, awareness, and transformation.

Winter is a natural time for introspection, stillness and deeper connection with self - perfectly aligned with the inner workings of Ashtanga. 

As the world quietens and nature draws inwards, so too can we. We need this time of year to slow down, to restore our energy, to rest, in order to balance the outwardly focused energy and productivity of the warmer months. So how can we balance this need with a yoga practice that, on the outside, is strong and dynamic, that follows strict rules and requires a lot of energy? How can we sustain our practice throughout the winter months without exhausting ourselves? Without becoming depleted, disillusioned and uninspired? 

Join me for a grounding Ashtanga workshop designed to support your transition into winter - a season of slowing down, stillness, reflection and inner nourishment.

The morning session will start with stillness and breathwork before moving into a hybrid led / Mysore style self practice class. (I will talk through the sun salutations and standing postures before moving into guided self practice - lots of support will be given to those who don't know the sequence and it is fine to bring along a practice sheet). 

The focus of the morning practice will be on the internal experience as well as softening in practice. Work to the level that feels right for you on this day whether that is to do less or even more - this is your practice! There will be space for some reflection after the session. 

The afternoon will comprise of:

Discussion

Looking at the pros and cons of the 'system' of Ashtanga yoga - where do you stand on this?

How to make this a practice that is sustainable throughout not only the seasons of the year but the seasons of our lives - looking at the many cycles. 

Practice

The focus of the afternoon asana session will be how to soften in practice, both externally and internally. We will look at some of the more introspective postures in detail. Our focus will be on the internal experience rather than the outward form.

Stillness and Reflection

A gentle prananyama session

Simple supported restorative postures

Yoga Nidra

Journaling and reflection over tea and cake

Q&A and discussion
