TWILIGHT MOVEMENT
Movement, Flow and Sound Immersion at Wildbark
*Kim’s sessions keep booking out weeks in advance so act quick!
With the stunning views of the Australian bush and Ngunnawal land as our backdrop, we invite you to a truly unique movement and sound immersion experience. Set in the main space of Wildbark, overlooking the breathtaking Mulligan’s Flat Nature Reserve, this session is designed to challenge, ground, and guide you on a transformative journey under the setting sun.
The Experience
We begin with a Yin and Yang flow led by our
experienced instructor, Kim. This dynamic practice blends the grounding energy
of Yin with the invigorating fire of Yang:
Start with gentle warm-up movements, progressing to energizing Yang sequences that challenge you to find your edge.
Transition into a slow flow with deep Yin stretches and grounding poses, helping you find stillness, release tension, and reconnect with your body.
As dusk settles, we move into a deeply relaxing sound immersion featuring crystal singing bowls and live music performed by talented local musicians, with the sunset over the reserve as our backdrop. Allow yourself to dive as deeply as you are open to, reaping the rewards of your efforts throughout the class.
Crystal singing bowls create vibrations that
resonate deeply within the body, promoting emotional, mental, and physical well-being.Let the harmonious blend of music and the beauty of nature guide you into a state of profound relaxation and calm.
Once the class concludes, we invite you to connect with others over a selection of herbal teas, fresh fruit, and other light refreshments, enjoyed in the tranquil surroundings of the reserve as the sun sets.
