Living Yoga - Blackrock Parish Hall

Living Yoga - Blackrock Parish Hall is a welcoming and inclusive gymnastics centre located in Dn Laoghaire. The centre offers a unique approach to yoga practise, focusing on movement, breathfulness, heartfulness, and mindfulness. The team at Living Yoga believes that we are made to move, and that our bodies have the ability to shape us both physically and mentally.

The practise at Living Yoga invites individuals to explore the joy of a breathing, moving body and to celebrate qualities such as poise, ease, grace, and power. Through classes and workshops, participants are guided to develop bodyful wisdom and personal agency, ultimately leading to a deeper understanding of themselves.

Embodiment is a key aspect of the practise at Living Yoga, encouraging individuals to have a conscious experience of their bodies. By understanding and speaking the language of the body intimately, participants can cultivate a sense of lightness, joy, and resilience in their movements.

Breathfulness, heartfulness, and mindfulness are also central to the practise at Living Yoga. Harnessing the vital life-force of the breath, cultivating kindness and compassion, and gaining a bird's eye view of oneself are all essential elements of the practise.

Through a focus on somatic presence, Living Yoga offers participants the opportunity to connect with their embodied selves and to experience direct, lived experience through movement and breath. The centre aims to create a more embodied world by guiding individuals towards a deeper connexion with their physical selves.

At Living Yoga - Blackrock Parish Hall, the team believes that movement brings joy and happiness, and that through the practise of yoga, individuals can feel connected, alive, and grateful for their physical bodies. The centre invites all individuals to explore the transformative power of movement and to experience the benefits of a bodyful, breathful, heartful, and mindful practise.
