Niamh Daly is a highly experienced teacher who specialises in using Yoga to enhance our health and wellbeing through the stages of our lives.

Internationally renowned as a teacher, teacher trainer and author, in this retreat Niamh will bring you the kind of care your individual body needs. You will return home with a wealth of yoga practices that are known to support health, comfort and ease in life.

Niamh’s teaching is mainly hatha yoga, inspired by Yin and restorative yoga which bring to the fore principles of self-compassion; softening; letting enough be enough; and permission to adapt your practice and support yourself as you uncover your body’s needs.

However she is also trained in teaching Pilates, Somatics and nutrition. These disciplines are woven in to give you a broad experience that also challenges your body and nervous system to become stronger and more resilient.

Her classes vary from bringing your body the positive challenges it needs to stay mobile and strong, to deeply gentle sessions that bring you back to your breath and connection to the present moment.

Sensing your body and how you feel on all levels as you sink deeper into postures and movements, allows your experience to unfold as your individual body needs, rather than trying to achieve or push yourself too hard.

When we learn to do this, we gain the trust of our body and nervous system, which allows the body to flourish.

Niamh teaches with great respect for yoga and the human body, as well as with lightness and a sense of humour, so that her classes are enjoyable as well as relaxing and immersive. She encourages each person to be compassionate with themselves, and not to force, strain or over-achieve, but instead to tune inwards and to be guided by the intuitive layers of their being.

There is a meditation class in the morning and evening each day, and one of the benefits of our week-long retreats is that you can become familiar with, and then take these practices home with you.

There is a lovely variety of classes on this Yoga for Health and Wellness weekend, as well as opportunities to ask Niamh questions about your own hopes for your health. She is generous with her time and expertise, so that you will be furnished with little tips to enhance your life when you return home.
