A day of yoga, lunch and ceramics in Azeitão, Portugal
EARTH BODY
How much are you inhabiting your body these days? How connected do you feel to the flesh and bone you are made of?
The rise of AI, and the amount of time we spend with our heads connected to a screen, can make it seem like the body is unimportant, just a vehicle at best.
Autumn calls us down into the earth of our bodies, and to the literal earth beneath our feet. This is a day to feel into the fascial matrix of the body, the ground substance that holds us all together.
We start with a slow, grounding and restful yoga practice with Pippa. We gather around a communal table for lunch, made by Sarah. Then, with bellies full, we get our hands into clay, working the earth under the guidance of Gisela.

Some kind words from people who've come before
- Pippa is absolutely amazing, so talented and truly magical in the way she guides you through each sensation in your body during her yoga classes. I joined one of her special days and it was pure joy from start to finish. I can't wait to do it again.
- I felt a very good vibe, and for these kind of events where we are looking to re-balance our body and mind and recover our energy, that's something you can't explain in words, just feel.
- I have attended a couple of Pippa's events. Her yoga flow is really gentle yet potent. I have enjoyed the community aspect a lot as well. Pippa has a grounded presence and creates safe space for the participants. I trust whatever she puts together is a wonderful overall experience. Highly recommend her.
