Jodis Session. We teach using the classical learning method. The classical learning method teaches students how to learn and how to think. What makes classical education so effective? It is largely because of its approach to how and when students are taught. Regardless of their learning style, young people learn in three phases or stages (grammar, logic or dialectic, and rhetoric), known as the trivium. Young people are working on IGCSE Math in this session.

PARENTS ARE FREE This is run by Gemma Felix who has a wealth of practice in her field of 17 years. For parents and young people. Full Moon is a very powerful time to come within ourselves and nurture ourselves as the light beings we are and stop rushing around for everyone else. These sessions are always booked on the week of a full moon. Gemma puts time aside for YP to try out her sound bowls. Besides their traditional use for meditation, Tibetan singing bowls are used for deep relaxation and muscle regeneration, to relieve pain in the joints, muscles and shoulders, to ease pain related to sciatica, the digestive system, headaches and migraine or spine injuries, to improve circulation, release tension. During a sound bath, the body may undergo many shifts including heightened awareness, sharper intuition, and increased energy. During the energy shifts that occur after a sound bath, it’s important to get plenty of rest and drink a lot of water. BRING A YOGA MAT
