super/science episode 9: lunar yoga

30 November
7PM GMT

Join us for the ninth episode in our new online event series, super/science.

30 November
7PM BST

Join us for the ninth episode in our new online event series, super/science.

during this event, Lucy Newport will lead the group through a yoga class, and Paul Hill will do a live telescope viewing. 

we’ll ease into the event with a 30-minute yoga class, moving through a gentle lunar inspired flow of poses to help us feel calm, get out of our heads and ready to learn more about our beautiful Moon. you don’t need any previous yoga experience to enjoy this class, just a bit of space and your most comfortable clothes to move around in.

everyone will also be sent the recording of the lunar inspired class after the event so you can bring this practice more into your daily life. there will be an optional, relaxing moon themed playlist for those who have a Spotify account.

after the yoga session we will hear from astronomer Paul Hill, and view Moon visuals created using Paul’s own telescope.

Paul is an elected fellow of the Royal Astronomical Society, co-presenter and writer of Awesome Astronomy podcast, a Space Ambassador for ESERO and has appeared on BBC News and Radio to discuss a range of astronomy and space issues.

Lucy guides yoga with an emphasis on listening to our own bodies and responding to what we most need ourselves. this helps us find feel-good movement and enjoy calming pauses for our bodies and minds, building strength and mobility whilst letting go of stress and tension. 

as well as teaching under the name of Living Green Yoga, Lucy helps desk workers at sustainable organisations feel happier and healthier whilst giving more back to the planet with her new online yoga programme, Cultivate.
