Dear Friends,
We welcome you to our first full day Seminar which is to be held on Saturday 6th March 2010 when our leader will be Marilyn Buckham.
Marilyn began practising Yoga about 30 years ago, teaching for approximately 12 years, and her initial teach training was with the British Wheel of Yoga. Marilyn went on to study pranayama, mantra, yoga nidra and meditation. In 2005 Marilyn travelled to southern India and spent time with Amma (The Hugging Mother) in her Ashram in Amritapuri. This experience served to confirm her belief that Yoga is a potent practice for alleviating suffering and this is conveyed in her teaching. During 2009 Marilyn travelled to Harrogate to Satyananda to increase her knowledge on Yoga and Tantra and here received the spiritual name of “Priya” during diksha from Swami Satsangi. Pranayama is high on Marilyn’s programme and I am sure you will find her day inspiring.

Saturday 11th September 2010
A special day for Yoga Teachers and their Students
A day with Sama Fabian
Sama Fabian (CSTA, IYN 500H, YR) is a senior Yoga practitioner, teacher and teacher trainer. Her Yoga is the result of dedicated studies of all aspects of the practice, and a continuous personal inquiry into the transformative power of Yoga.
Grounded in a sustained and diligent practice of 29 years her teaching puts the student in touch with profound layers of experience utilising the full Yoga Sadhana of structural and energetic body-work, vinyasa sequences, pranayama, visualisation and meditation.
Sama studied with prominent teachers in the field:
» Sri Satchitananda of Madras (Concentration: the power of mind)
» Ma Gandha (Vini Yoga)
» Silva Mehta & Sylvia Prescott (Iyengar Yoga)
» Angela Farmer (Unfolding the Feminine)
» Dona Holleman & Orit Sen Gupta (Dancing the Body of Light, the Future of Yoga)
The work of Sri Aurobindo and the Mother of Pondicherry have been a continuous inspiration and the practice itself has provided wondrous spiritual resources.
Sama’s practice as a qualified Craniosacral Therapist and her on-going experimentation with art have also broaden and enriched her teaching philosophy.
She is the founder of Aurolab Yoga Project and a founder member of the Independent Yoga Network UK.
Programme to follow soon
