Yoga for Perimenopause with Tiffy George

We are pleased to welcome Tiffy George back to Yogarise for this yoga for perimenopause workshop.

Perimenopause is a time of increased sensitivity and vulnerability. We are undergoing huge physical and psychological changes as we move out of our reproductive years, and life stress can compound common symptoms such as anxiety, overwhelm and fatigue. In this workshop we will explore a toolkit of techniques, guidance, reflection and support to help us adjust to the challenges – and the possibilities – with greater ease and confidence as we move through our own unique menopause journey.

This yoga for perimenopause workshop provides an enjoyable and safe space where women can come together and share their experiences, laugh and embrace the changes while learning from one another. Practising yoga in the company of other women can feel supportive and reminds us that we are NOT alone.

The workshop will include:

• An introduction to the stages of menopause and how hormone changes affect our body and mind.

• A safe and supportive women’s circle.

• A yoga practice especially designed to alleviate the most common menopause symptoms including anxiety, overwhelm and fatigue, breathing techniques, gentle vinyasa flow, restorative yoga and mindful meditation practices.

• Journaling and self-reflection.

• Handouts.

Tiffy has been practising yoga since the 1990s. After completing a one-year full-time yoga teacher training with YogaArts in Australia, she qualified as an International Yoga Alliance certified yoga teacher in 2002. She has continued to explore and study many forms of yoga with various teachers over the years: Astanga, Iyengar, restorative and therapeutic yoga, breathwork and meditation, and yoga for pregnancy and beyond. Most recently her ever-deepening passion has led her to develop additional expertise in Menopause YogaTM with Petra Coveney, as well as yoga for pelvic health with Leslie Howard. Tiffy’s classes and workshops offer a therapeutic route to finding and unravelling tension and moving towards greater ease and balance.

Geared towards those in perimenopause and menopause, but open to all with an interest. No previous yoga experience is required.
