Mind, Body and Soul: Bringing Life into Balance with Brandi Epstein
Pure Yoga Singapore – Ngee Ann City
28 February
Live in a globalised world, characterised by seemingly endless opportunities and choices on the one hand, and growing rates of poverty, pollution and health concerns on the other. Simultaneously, in our personal lives we strive to give enough time to our work, family, friends, exercise and self-care. It is in this context, with our basic needs met, that we find ourselves seeking deeper levels of awareness, meaning and fulfillment.
When we nurture the mind, body and soul of a person we can cultivate a sense of calm, enhance our health, and find our balance - leading to greater degrees of contentment, contribution, and overall purpose in our lives.
This workshop aims to help you meet those competing pressures and challenges by giving you the tools to develop within yourselves:
• Peace, Balance and Inner Harmony
• Radiant Health
• A Nourishing Soul

Personal Revolution YogaSurf Retreat - Transform and Revolutionise your Life
with Wendy Wyvill
Desa Seni Village Resort - Bali, Indonesia
1 – 8 May
Join us for a week as we seek a transformational state where the physical, mental, and spiritual co-exist peacefully. Wendy Wyvill and assisting teacher Dawnette Hidley will lead daily yoga and meditation classes amidst the picturesque natural surroundings of Bali. What’s more, at Desa Seni, you can go surf the famous break at the nearby Canggu under the beautiful skies!
Being on a retreat allows you to slow down – giving you perspective and focus for yourself. Being in a busy city and leading a habitual life creates a haze so heavy that one loses perspective and their true selves. With a change of space, daily vinyasa / meditation practice, nurtured diet and a healing environment, detoxification takes place, perspective shifts, new insights are gained and transformation begins.
Use this retreat to kick-start a commitment, and reach a new altitude of physical and spiritual strength. This retreat is open to all levels, however, experience with sun salutation series A + B is necessary.
The yoga clause and programme at Desa Seni (the “Resort”) are organised by Pure Travel Limited (“Pure”), and all travel arrangements, reservations ticketing, package payments are made for and on your behalf by In Travel Limited (Agent License No. 350922) (“In Travel”).

YOGA and eMOTIONS
with Tanya Boulton
Pure Yoga Hong Kong – Tsim Sha Tsui
28 February and 1 March
In YOGA and eMOTIONS, we will explore where and what particular emotions sit in our bodies, find out where emotional high-charge points are, learn to practise our yoga in a way that helps emotional healing, and move deep into our practice by way of specific sequencing that targets emotional trigger points. We will then connect to the emotional body through pranayama and asana, and be able to celebrate self-discovery and staying open to the emotions that life presents us with.
Both sessions will include informative handouts, and you will be asked to do some personal writing and exploration. The later half of the session will be a deep yoga practice integrating information from lecture and discussion.
This weekend workshop is suitable for all students who want to use yoga as a vehicle to bring awareness and healing into their lives. Be prepared to go deep and sweat!
