About this workshop
Okido Yoga is also known as “Daily Life Yoga”. This does not simply mean setting aside a specific amount of time each day to practise yoga postures, breathing exercises and the like. Rather, it is about integrating yogic principles and methods into every aspect of one’s daily life—learning to use the body and mind in a yogic way throughout the day. But what does it mean to be “yogic”? We hope this workshop will offer you practical insights and tips to enhance your everyday movements and posture, and to support a greater sense of balance in mind and body. At the end, we’ll take time to enjoy a cup of tea together as a group.

Feedback from a past participant:
"The Okido Yoga 'Daily Life Yoga' Autumn workshop was a gentle, friendly, and enriching experience. I particularly valued the emphasis on integrating yogic principles into everyday living, rather than treating yoga as a separate practice. I found it a truly grounding and uplifting workshop. I have since been integrating the principles and methods into my daily routines."
