10:00 – 12:00 pm Inverted State of Mind Masterclass

In this masterclass, we will delve into Miles‘ unique sequencing, which serves as the foundation for his personal practice and is shared in his teacher training. It combines elements from Ashtanga, Rocket, and Dharma traditions, put together in a creative way that compliments each other whilst also expressing Miles‘ teachings.

This particular class will centre on backbends and hip-opening whilst exploring a good variety of inversions and transitions.

All levels are welcome to join, except for those who are complete beginners.

1:00 – 2:30 pm Handstand Workshop

This handstand workshop is suitable for both students who are just starting to explore balance while practising against the wall and those who may already have the foundation of a stable handstand.

During the workshop, we will focus on three key aspects of handstands: proper alignment, improving balance, and building endurance.

Whether you’re just beginning to find your balance or already have some experience with handstands, you’ll acquire valuable skills to reinforce the fundamentals in a fun and engaging manner. If you’re currently relying on the wall for support, you’ll also gain insights into transitioning towards a wall-free handstand practice while using the wall as a helpful tool.

This training will be broken into two weekends: 5th-7th and 12th-14th April

Derived from Ashtanga vinyasa, Rocket® Yoga is an energetic and invigorating practice that links breath to movement through a dynamic practice whilst incorporating a space of play and exploration for the practitioner, exploring postures in a way you wouldn’t normally do in the traditional Ashtanga method.

Come in with an open and curious mindset, let your ego drop to the side, and don't be afraid to fly or fall!

The main focus of this Advanced 50-HR training is building the understanding and foundation for practising and teaching the classic series in the Rocket® Yoga methodology. Days will include practising and breaking down Rocket 1, 2, and 3 and how to adjust and modify the practice to suit your student's needs.

Throughout this Level 1 training, you'll delve into 50 hours of fundamental Rocket Philosophy, Techniques, and Sequences. This comprehensive training spans five full days, including both morning and afternoon sessions, along with lectures and workshops.

To join this training, you must have completed your 200-hour Yoga Teacher Training from a registered school OR practised Ashtanga/Rocket for two years.

Master Class June 22/23 at 10:00-12:00 €50

During these master classes, we will have the opportunity to immerse ourselves in the sequences that characterises Miles' style. They are unique, dynamic, and form the basis of his practice, of what he loves to share during seminars and in-depth studies. Miles combines elements from the Ashtanga, Rocket, and Dharma traditions.

These master classes are open to students of any level and tradition, except for complete beginners.

Workshop: Inversions Saturday, June 22 at 14:00-17:00 €70

This seminar is suitable for students who have recently begun to explore balancing positions on their hands with the support of the wall, as well as for students with good balance and solid foundations.

During this seminar, we will focus on three fundamental aspects: correct alignment, improvement of balance, and endurance. This seminar will allow us to acquire indispensable skills to make the practice stable, safe, but also fun and engaging. If you use the wall as support, you will learn methods to start exploring positions away from the wall.

Workshop: Backbends Sunday, June 23 at 14:00-17:00 €70

This seminar will help you deeply understand the functioning of the spine in relation to the joints used to perform backbends. Whether you are an experienced student or a beginner, this seminar will offer valuable knowledge to improve your practice. We will explore key elements that will allow us to access strong and stable backbends.

By activating the correct musculature, you will have the opportunity to cultivate strength and flexibility. To make the practice safe and effective, we will also work on correct alignment and spinal mobility.

One of the most important aspects will be the integration of bandhas (locks) and breath control. We will learn to harness the power of bandhas to create stable and comfortable postures. We will explore the connection between hips, spine, and shoulders; finally, you will learn some methods to integrate this new knowledge into your everyday practice.

Whole Weekend = €215

This 20-HR CET program brings together the different areas of passion in Miles’ personal practice with the aim of providing you with a comprehensive approach to developing and progressing your asana practice while enhancing your knowledge around strength, flexibility, and mobility.

For teachers, this program will provide a more thorough understanding of how to support their students better and assist them in overcoming their barriers, while for the practitioners, it will help them gain crucial insight into how to create effective road maps to work towards their own personal practice goals.

Miles' aim is to share the knowledge that he uses both in his personal practice as well as with his private clients to help you build a healthy and sustainable practice, avoid injury, overcome plateaus and progress in your chosen areas.
