Yoga & Qigong Event
Saturday, 26 April 2025
2.30pm-5.30pm
Price 20 euros
Although yoga and qigong are different systems, they both work with body, mind, and breath to optimize energy flow and overall health.
Join qigong instructor Charity Kahn (@charityandthejamband) and yoga instructor Alison Melvin (@alison_yoga.pt) for a practice to support grounding, balancing of energy, and the release of blocks and tension.
We’ll end with meditation and tea. You’ll leave with an increased sense of peace, relaxation and joy.
