(CAD109.48)Course11 January 2012 to 28 March 2012
Triyoga: Covent Garden WC2E 9NA[map]
Ashtanga yoga is a dynamic and physically challenging style of yoga where movement is synchronised with the breath and a set series of poses are linked in a constant flow. This creates a detoxifying heat (be prepared to sweat!) and has the effect of stilling the mind and creating a feeling of calm focus. Increased strength and flexibility and a reduction in feelings of stress are some of the many benefits of this powerful practice.

Augustus John: A Life in Portraits at National Portrait Gallery

Art26 July 2011 to 18 March 2012
National Portrait Gallery WC2H 0HE[map]
This display marks the fiftieth anniversary of the death of Augustus John (1878-1961), one of the most celebrated British artists of the early 20th century. He was regarded as an outstanding painter and a brilliant draughtsman. He was associated with the New English Art Club and the Camden Town Group but remained largely independent from artistic trends and movements. Alongside these achievements his lifestyle epitomised that of the bohemian artist, a reputation bolstered by his fascination with Romany culture.
