About this event
Booking in advance is required.
Jack Harrison is a Certified Anusara Yoga Teacher, folklorist and musician. He has worked and studied in all three of these areas for the last 30 years and integrates these paths together in the Celtic School of Yoga and Music Workshops. They include music, poetry, myth and yoga. He is a principal author of a seminal book on the parallels between yoga and the Celtic world and he has also recorded three acclaimed albums of yoga music. His teaching is very much based on the changing rhythms of these latitudes and the vital importance of breath in asana. Since 2007, Jack has travelled internationally to give workshops, intensives and teacher trainings and teaches with a strong influence from the Celtic tradition. His teachings and practice explore how it is to ally movement of the body with breath, focus, mythology, poetry, music and the natural world—and the astonishing fact of being alive.
