Six Senses is launching a series of yogic programmes at all of its spa resorts and select partner spas using the skills of in-house yoga masters.

Dorelal Singh, a leading yoga practitioner trained at the Bihar School of Yoga in India, is responsible for enhancing yoga techniques and practices across all Six Senses spas.

“Due to the high quality of yoga master talent we have throughout Six Senses, we have been able to roll out this initiative out on a global basis and personalise each programme through private sessions of yoga, breathing and meditation,” said Anna Bjurstam, vice president of Six Senses Spa.

Discover Yoga and Yogic Detox are two in a series of three programmes of yoga offered by Six Senses. A selection of Six Senses signature massages are incorporated into certain yoga sessions.

Discover Yoga is aimed at novices – focusing on stress-release and improved flexibility – whereas Yogic Detox is for more experienced yoga practitioners, drawing upon cleansing techniques such as sat kriya which involves forceful exhalation and meditation.

These two programmes are based on the principles of hatha yoga which consist of gentle moves with a minimum and effortless flow between each pose.

Launching later this year, Yogic Sleep is the third programme in the Six Senses series and it will feature yoga nidra – intended to induce full body relaxation and a deep meditative state of consciousness for improved sleep.

Aspects of both simple and more advanced hatha yoga postures are incorporated with meditation and detox treatments, all of which require guests to undergo an initial personalised assessment.
