Alice in Wonderland Yoga
It’s more than 150 years since Alice in Wonderland by Lewis Carroll was first published. You may be surprised to discover that it is possible to draw a yoga life lesson from the pages of the book. The book tells a story of an Alice who is lost. She’s big. She’s small. She has forgotten the key to the garden. She gets stuck. She loses her way. She doesn’t know which way to go, or who or what she is. Yoga can help! This entertaining session visits all the much-loved Alice characters. Hear from the book during the practice.
