    For her final family weekend retreat offering this dry season, Imogen is excited to be collaborating with the inspiring Joanne Lauterjung at the beautiful Bulaeinn Villas in Bago. Join them for a weekend of music and myth where we will be delving into musical play, story telling and yoga for all the family to enjoy.

     

    Over the weekend, through both yoga, movement and music we will explore stories from the yoga lineage. We will uncover their meaning, discover what we can glean from these ancient myths and how they carry reflections of our own inner life and journey.

     

    The weekends teachings will explore a variety of practices; musical play, meditation, contemplation, soulful vinyasa, yin and deep relaxation.
