Talise Spa hosts first Full Moon Yoga event of 2008 at Madinat Jumeirah Beach
With temperatures now perfect for outdoor activities, Talise Spa at Madinat Jumeirah will host the Full Moon Yoga event in Dubai this year. The spiritual event will take place by the light of the full moon, accompanied by thirty guitarists and fifteen drummers, at Madinat Jumeirah Beach on Monday 21st April.
This holistic event is the perfect opportunity to kickstart a healthy lifestyle. The session will be hosted by Talise Yoga Master, Vinay Peedikaparamb, and will include a series of Hatha Yoga postures which will concentrate on breathing and deep meditation to calm the mind and encourage deep relaxation.
The first 25 minutes of the event will be accompanied by thirty classically trained acoustic guitarists of all ages, with three guitarists remaining throughout the entirety of the yoga session and integrating their instruments into the yoga sequences. As the session comes to an end, to commence a celebration of awakening of the spirit, fifteen drummers will build up to a 10 minute crescendo of tribal drumming to truly welcome the full moon and all that it brings.
The day of the full moon is considered very auspicious, with the luminous fullness of the moon representing plenitude, abundance, and generous blessings. On this particular day the moon overpowers the earth, with the energy that controls the tides also affecting the water which makes up 80% of the human body. For this reason practising yoga during the full moon is considered to be the perfect opportunity to align the body to the lunar cycles and commence the journey towards inner peace and well being.
Director of Talise Spa, Trevor Studd, commented; “We are thrilled to be making such a spiritually significant event available to people in Dubai. Talise is a place of self-discovery taking guests on an unforgettable inner journey with spiritual and physical treatments and experiences influenced by healing traditions from around the world. Practicing yoga on the beach, by the light of the full moon, accompanied by the sounds of tribal drumming, will be a unique and unmissable experience.”
The Full Moon Yoga is open to any budding yogis of any ability. To experience the timeless holistic yoga benefits, and be part of this celebration in the light of the full moon, please contact Talise Spa on 04 3666818; the event starts at 7.00pm, Monday 21st April and costs AED 200.
