Friday Evening Yoga and Movement Restorative Class @ Yoga Collective

In this class we get in touch with our fluid body, tissues and get to know ourselves and what moves and how and what doesn’t. Gradually we develop fluidity, lightness, a change in state which supports the shift to strenghtening and lenghtening work for a period, followed by deep rest.

I started practising in 1991, trained in the Iyengar system to senior level over 25 years and trained teachers during pandemic with the Body Symphonies teacher training. My way of teaching now is the result of integration of my experience and work as a previously Iyengar teacher as well as a craniosacral therapist and movement practitioner.

ART OF SOARING – workshops in The Feldenkrais Method®

ART OF SOARING – workshops in The Feldenkrais Method® to help improve everything that you do with your body. At the Yoga Collective Studios on the 6th floor.

The Feldenkrais Method® is a form of sensory training or even curiosity training, based around movement and using the techniques we all used to learn about the world in those days long gone before we knew what ‘learning’ is. The group sessions gently challenge us to think differently – sequences of movement that reveal to us where our habits might be restricting a full and better use of ourselves.

Art of Soaring is a series of three movement workshops running in the Yoga Collective Studio on the 6th Floor. They are connected but you don’t have to come to all three. You lie on the floor, I direct you with simple functional movement ideas. The aim is that we become more fully ourselves, able to use the resources more fully that evolution has given us.

Special deal for Edinburgh Palette members: £25 per workshop + a free half-hour one-to-one Functional Integration session. Come try something completely different!

Saturdays 28 Jan, 11 Feb, 25 Feb. 11am – 2pm

Paul Renwick Funeral Arrangements

The team at Edinburgh Palette were saddened to learn of Paul’s sudden and unexpected passing.

Paul always had time for everyone, was supportive of the project and quick to share a joke (usually football related) or quip in the office. It was clear those who worked alongside him at Out of Hand Scotland were motivated by his approach to management and life in general. He will be greatly missed by all.  

Paul’s funeral will be held on Wednesday 9th of November at 12pm, at Mortonhall Crematorium.
