Course Outline

• The Perimenopause is a time of great change, vulnerability and transition, not just to our lives but also to our bodies, and the pelvis in particular.It is the time that the menstrual cycle starts to fluctuate and eventually stop and this has implications for women physically as well as psychologically.

  Therefore it is an ideal time to pay attention to this powerful part of the female body, to connect, create awareness and cultivate health and vitality.

  This workshop will give a brief outline and understanding on what can arise with the female pelvis within the time of the perimenopause from a bio/psycho/social lens.

  There will be a trauma-informed movement, visualisation and breathwork practise to explore and suggestions on how to create awareness and content within the yoga setting to accommodate the perimenopausal pelvis.

   

  By the end of the workshop you will have

  • An understanding of the vulnerabilities of the female pelvis during the perimenopause.
  • A  bio/psycho/social viewpoint on the perimenopause and how it can impact on a woman’s life.
  • A physical experience of how pelvic friendly practises can be brought into yoga practises through movement, breathwork and visualisation.

"I've joined 2 workshops, both on the female pelvis, and I like the way Jane teaches. She makes any notions accessible, information are well organized and broadly discussed giving the group the chance to interact and share ideas. You'll have the opportunity to connect with your body by simple movements and a variety of tools she uses to better understand how the body works and its relation with emotions. If you want something that goes beyond yoga to deepen your knowledge and to give your clients the chance to explore their bodies in different ways, these workshops can be the tools you're looking for."
