SUMMARY:Free DPN Connect: Do You Really Understand Pranayama?
DESCRIPTION:As yoga and meditation teachers\, we all work with the breath. But it’s surprisingly easy to develop habits around breathing without fully understanding the principles behind what we’re doing. And when it comes to teaching pranayama\, good intentions aren’t enough. Precision matters. \nCould some of the breathing practices we use actually be reinforcing unhelpful patterns? \nDo you understand why one way of breathing can have a very different effect from another? \nAnd how much more could you bring to your teaching if you understood the breath at a much deeper level? \nPranayama is much more than a collection of breathing exercises. Join André Hartwich for this free 45-minute DPN Connect and discover the depth behind the practice. Drawing on his many years of dedicated study and experience\, André will explore some of the principles that underpin pranayama and give you a taste of the Dru Breath and Pranayama Coach Training. \nThe training goes far beyond learning techniques. It develops a precise understanding of the principles of breathing and explores topics such as the gunas and koshas before moving into increasingly subtle aspects of pranayama. For yoga and meditation teachers\, this deeper understanding can transform the way we approach the breath in our own practice and in our teaching. \n🌸 \nThis session is for you if: \n\nYou already use breathing practices but want to understand why they work\nYou’ve never felt completely confident teaching pranayama and want to develop a stronger foundation\nYou’d like to understand how breathing patterns can support – or potentially hinder – your yoga practice\nYou’re curious about the relationship between the breath\, the nervous system\, the gunas and the koshas\nYou want to discover how a deeper understanding of pranayama could enrich your yoga and meditation teaching.\n\nYou don’t need to be new to pranayama. In fact\, this session is especially for those who already know that the breath matters – and want to understand it properly. \nThe session will include an attunement and short pranayama practice\, an introduction to the upcoming Dru Breath and Pranayama Training course\, and time to ask questions. \nAbout the teacher: \nAndré Hartwich is a teacher trainer in yoga\, pranayama and breathwork\, yoga nidra and meditation. He has been practising and teaching since 1999\, developing a deep understanding of the relationship between breath\, body and mind\, and how these practices can cultivate greater awareness\, steadiness and lasting change. \n🌸 \nPlease check that you are logged into your account when purchasing the ticket. \nAfter booking\, you’ll receive an email with instructions on how to join the event. If it doesn’t arrive\, please check all your spam folder. \nAfter the event\, access your replay (available for 1 week) via your account on druyoga.com.

SUMMARY:Dru Yoga Nidra and Pranayama Retreat
DESCRIPTION:THE RETREAT EXPERIENCE\nThree days. Multiple daily practices. One sustained immersion.\nThis retreat is designed with space and ease in mind. Nothing is rushed. \nAlongside daily Yoga Nidra sessions\, the programme includes pranayama\, gentle movement\, guided reflection\, and time in the mountains of Snowdonia. Meals are vegetarian\, freshly prepared\, and eaten communally. \nEach day moves through the three pillars that define the Dru Yoga Nidra approach: \n🪷 Healing: Releasing the accumulated tension of a life lived at pace. Physical\, emotional\, and energetic layers. The practice creates the conditions for the body to do what it already knows how to do. \n🪷 Clarity: When the noise settles\, what remains is often surprising. Decisions that have felt complex become obvious. Priorities reorganise themselves. The retreat creates the space for this to happen without forcing it. \n🪷 Awakening: The deepest dimension of the practice. A direct encounter with the awareness that is always already present beneath thought and feeling. This is not mystical language. It is a description of what consistently happens in sustained Yoga Nidra practice. \n Who this is for \nIt’s open to all levels. Whether you have completed the Dru Yoga Nidra Teacher Training or one of our breathwork courses and want to deepen your personal practice\, or you are coming to these modalities for the first time\, you’re welcome here. \nYour guides \n🪷 André Hartwich — Yoga\, Meditation\, Pranayama (Breathwork) and Dru Yoga Nidra Teacher Trainer. Teaching and practising Yoga Nidra since 1999. \n🪷 Silke Zanker— Yoga Nidra Teacher Trainer\, personal development coach\, Ayurveda practitioner. Over 20 years of teaching experience \n🌟 \nPlease check that you are logged into your account when purchasing the ticket.

SUMMARY:Free Your Voice - A Two-Session Sound Healing Workshop
DESCRIPTION:Free Your Voice with Petra Opsteeg and the Dru Team\nMost of us use a fraction of our voice. \nNot because anything is wrong — but because years of stress\, habit\, and the simple pressure of daily life have left most of us with a voice that is held back\, held in\, and only partially free. We speak. We get by. But somewhere behind that\, there is a voice that is fuller\, deeper\, and more completely ours. \nThese two sound healing evenings\, led by Petra Opsteeg — Dru Senior Sound Tutor — are an invitation to find it. \nThrough nada yoga\, the yoga of sound\, Petra will take you layer by layer through the five koshas: releasing what is held in the body\, expanding what is possible in the breath\, opening the full spectrum of vocal expression\, and arriving — through kirtan and mantra — in a quality of inner stillness that many people find is deeper than anything they have touched in meditation before. \nYou don’t need to have attended her previous masterclasses. All you need is your self and your voice\, whether or not you feel able to sing or feel good about your voice. \n\nSession One — Thursday 22 Oct\, 7–8.30pm BST\nFreeing the Body\, the Breath\, and the Pranic Voice \nSound doesn’t come from the throat. It comes from the whole body — and most of us have no idea how much freeing our body will free our voice. \nIn this first session\, Petra and the Dru team work with the annamaya and pranamaya koshas: the physical body and the pranic body. You’ll release what the body has been carrying\, open the real depth of your breath\, and discover — often to your great surprise — that your voice is already stronger and freer than you thought. \nWhat we’ll explore in Session One: \n\nThe Full-Body Sound Release — releasing shoulder\, chest\, jaw\, belly\, and pelvic holding: all the places that limit your voice without you ever knowing it’s happening\nPranayama for Vocal Freedom — breath practices that expand your pranic capacity and let the voice move without restriction\nThe Grounded Voice — a partner practice in voice projection: speaking not from effort but from the your whole self\, with fullness and grounding in the body. When you get this\, people know it immediately\nThe Sound Body Relaxation — a closing practice directing sound from the base of the body to the crown\, and back down like a shower of light: landing you in the deepest stillness\n\n\nSession Two — Tuesday 27 Oct\, 7–8.30pm BST\nExpression\, Intention\, and the Stillness Beyond Sound \nOnce the body is free and the breath is open\, something becomes possible that wasn’t before: expression with real depth. \nIn the second session\, Petra moves into the manomaya and vijnanamaya koshas — the minds of feeling and of wisdom. Through chanting\, name work\, and a remarkable exercise in vocal intention\, you’ll begin to understand not just how to use your voice\, but what it is actually for. \nWhat we’ll explore in Session Two: \n\nThe Name Practice — singing your own name\, softly and then fully: a deeply moving practice\, to help you really hear yourself – and even begin to love yourself in a whole new way\nThe Spectrum of Expression — vowel sounding and mantra chanting to open the full range of what your voice can do\, well beyond what most of us ever explore\nThe Great Stage — scaling vocal intention from a room\, to a person you love at the far side of the world\, to a prayer for peace. The quality of sound that emerges is uniquely YOU!\nFinding Your Chakra Tones — beginning the journey of finding the natural tonal resonance of three key chakras: base\, heart\, and vishuddhi\, thus accessing your feeling of being supported by life\, open to it\, and with full power of expression into it.\nKirtan and the Silence After — because the stillness that arrives after real kirtan is unlike most silences. Full\, rather than empty. This is the doorway into meditation that everything has been leading towards\n\n\nWhat you’ll take away \nAcross both sessions\, you’ll have: \n\nA direct experience of the connection between a free body\, a free breath\, and a free voice\nSound and breath practices you can return to on your own — the grounded voice\, the sound relaxation\, the intention practice\nA beginning sense of the natural tonal resonance of your key chakras\nAn understanding of why kirtan and mantra create a quality of stillness that is genuinely unlike anything else\nA clearer sense of what your authentic voice sounds like — and what it feels like to use it\n\n\nWho this workshop is for \nThis workshop is well suited to: \n\nAnyone who attended the July Sound Healing Masterclass and wants to go further (but this is not required)\nYoga practitioners and teachers wanting to work seriously with sound\, mantra\, and the subtle body\nAnyone drawn to kirtan\, nada yoga\, or chanting meditation who wants to understand the deeper framework — and experience it from the inside\nAnyone whose meditation practice has felt stuck\, or who is curious whether sound might be the missing element\nAnyone who has always suspected their voice is more than they thought!\n\nNo singing experience is required. No previous knowledge of the koshas is needed. What helps is your curiosity — and a willingness\, as always\, to make a little noise. \n\nAbout Petra Opsteeg \nPetra Opsteeg is a Dru Senior Tutor in Sound. She has taught the healing power of sound on three continents and has spent more than thirty years helping people find\, free\, and deepen their inner voice. Warm\, playful\, and deeply grounded in both the tradition and the practice\, Petra has a way of making the whole thing feel safe\, invigorating and empowering — and definitely plenty of fun. \n\nWhat if I can’t attend live? \nBoth sessions are recorded\, and while we’d love for you to be present\, you’ll still gain tremendously if you have to view the recordings of one or both sessions. You’ll still be able to discover your voice in magnificent new ways from the recordings!
