Yoga From the Heart with Mark Whitwell
Event Information
Description
Join us at Dune Lakes Lodge for a day with Mark Whitwell
Mark is interested in developing an authentic yoga practice for the individual, based on the teachings of T. Krishnamacharya and his son TKV Desikachar, with whom he enjoyed a relationship for more than twenty years. Mark’s teachings clarify the profound passion and relevance of ancient wisdom to contemporary life.
'Yoga isn’t just something you do, it’s something you feel; a deep connection; a warmth spreading from your heart all the way through your body; the beating of your heart in the silence and stillness of meditation. Yoga should both start and end at the heart."
For the past twenty-five years, Mark Whitwell has travelled the globe teaching yoga to thousands of people. He was the editor and contributor to TKV Desikachar's book The Heart of Yoga, and is the author of The Yoga of Heart and The Promise of Love, Sex and Intimacy.
Your practice will be supported by a delicious wholefood lunch.
After Marks class finishes, we'll be hosting a Curry and Kirtan evening with Franko Heke. Please note the separate ticketing option for this below.
Accomodation is available if you would like to stay the night

Organiser of Yoga From the Heart with Mark Whitwell
Dune Lakes Horse Inspired Learning Centre is situated on 37 acres and nestled in the beautiful South Kaipara Head Peninsula. Our mission is to bring Horses and Humans together in a way that improves the wellbeing and success of everyone. Through our registered charity, Equine Pathfinders Foundation, we operate safe, productive, and growthful Equine Facilitated Learning Programmes - where the experience of connecting and partnering with Horses can help people gain valuable insights into themselves and provide the foundation for meaningful and powerful personal growth. In this way, we aim to positively impact the wellbeing and success of individual children, youth, adults, and families, as well as the larger communities where they live, play, and work.
Your participation in this event enables Equine Pathfinders Foundation to continue this important work and be more effective in our community.
