USED TECHNIQUES

 

THE RSI METHOD (Steph)

A body-first practice through conscious movement. Life is NOT always sunshine and rainbows. It’s messy, f***ed up, wild, weird and also so f***ing beautiful. It’s time we acknowledge ALL of these truths. A new method that is more than just fitness has been birthed thanks to the pandemic. A method that allows you to invite in your messy, f***ed up, wild, weird and beautiful so you learn how to be with and love all parts of you. These are fun, music driven practices where you are offered guidance through structure, structured freedom and complete freedom. It’s a safe space to practice and learn to become your own best friend.

 

PRACTICE OF PRESENCE MEDITATION (Peter)

Meditation is a gateway to your unique Self, the still and peaceful centre in the hurricane of the relentless stream of thoughts and stories. This core of your Being is the natural source of your inner peace, wisdom, energy, creativity and joy which is your authentic nature. Within the meditation guidance, Peter will be using his approach called the “Practice of Presence’ which connects essential mindfulness techniques and teaches the ability to relax and be grounded at any time during your daily life.

 

 

SESSIONS STRUCTURE

 

Each session starts with a component of The RSI Method using guided movement, breath practices and/or vocal releases (with Steph) and is followed by a thematic guided meditation (by Peter) to enhance the experience and ground gained insights deeply within you.
