Roots Yoga & Reggae Brunch

Join your hosts Cobi & Lee as we celebrate our Roots Yoga One Year anniversary. This time last year we completed our Kemetic Yoga Teacher Training in Jamaica with the legendary Master Yirser Ra Hotep and would love to share with you this special milestone in our Roots Yoga journey. Keeping true to our Carribean Roots we intend to ease you nicely into the carnival weekend with what will be a very grounding yet uplifting experience.

Once you have arrived and settled on your mat, you will firstly be guided through a relaxing breathwork session and meditation, activating the parasympathetic nervous system, helping you to reset, ready to receive after a long and busy week.

We will then flow straight into our Kemetic Yoga practice, moving with the breath through geometric progressions and unique Kemetic postures, bringing a rejuvenating life force energy back into the mind, body and soul.

You will then be taken on a soothing sound healing journey as you lay back, tune into the vibrations and relax even deeper.

After a refreshment and reflection break we will re-awaken the with some therapeutic and freeing Afro Movement Medicine combined with breath and beats to release, energise and bring joy to mind body and soul.

To end the day you will be nourished with an authentic home cooked vegan friendly brunch (Ital is Vital) full of tasty carribean flavours. The whole time listening to Roots Reggae classics playing in the background, leaving you feeling refreshed, rejuvenated and ready for the carnival weekend vibe.

What is Kemetic Yoga?

Rooted in the Ancient African System of Yoga, Kemetic Yoga™ is one of the culturally developed spiritual practices that link movement and breath. The poses in Kemetic Yoga™ were originally developed by Master Yirser Ra Hotep who studied, translated, and interpreted the commonly called hieroglyphic texts of Kemet. These poses are taken from ancient illustrations of Egyptian gods and goddesses from the walls of the Kemetic Temples and Pyramids, which are exclusive to Kemetic Yoga™. This style of yoga focuses on the movement of energy through the body to connect with one's higher intelligence and the divine.

Kemetic Yoga™ focuses on relaxation and meditation with much slower and soft-paced movements than in a standard yoga class. In this style of yoga, one enters a profoundly meditative state before beginning the physical practice. This style of yoga primarily benefits the mind and emphasizes breath control to move. It brings more stillness and calmness to the mind and body. It involves more restorative and meditative asanas which calm the nervous system and activate the brain cells, creating healthy conditions for healing.
