AUSTRALIA DAY - NO CLASSES.

Intensive - 27-29 January

Each January I hold an Intensive to kick start the New Year and really cement our commitment to practice yoga and appreciate all it has to offer.  The Intensive is open to all students with 6 months experience of yoga.  The main focus is on being present and working to progress our understanding of yoga.  By stepping onto the mat daily it is an opportunity to spend more time observing ourselves in the practice and giving priority to our practice as we come together as a group and commit to 3 days of steady, measured practice.

The morning sessions are generally dedicated to studying and practising active asana like standing poses, and the evening sessions are dedicated to restoring our energy with passive asanas and pranayama.  the session times are as follows:

Friday 27 Jan 6.30-8.00am and 5.45-7.00pm
Saturday 28 Jan 8.30-10.30am and 3.30-5.00pm
Sunday 29 Jan 9.00-11.00am and 3.30-5.00pm.

Investment for 6 sessions $250.00

Priority will be given to those attending all 6 sessions as this is a complete and comprehensive workshop over the 6 sessions.   If you are attending all 6 sessions you can book online with the link below.  If you wish to attend 4 or 5 sessions email or talk to Tricia.

Start 2025 on the front foot by joining one of our Classes or KickStart Programs

Are you looking to start the new year off on the right foot by prioritising your health?  Or maybe you are looking to incorporate yoga into your daily routine? Why not consider starting 2025 with one of our KickStart Programs?  The new year is the perfect time to kickstart your yoga practice and reap the many benefits that come with it.  Whether you are an existing student in our yoga community, or looking for a friendly studio to start your yoga journey, our holiday program has classes for all levels.

What are the Benefits of Yoga?

Yoga is not just about stretching and posing – it offers a wide range of benefits for both the body and the mind. From increased flexibility and strength to stress relief and improved mental clarity, yoga has something to offer everyone. By committing to a regular yoga practice, you can improve your overall well-being and feel more balanced in your daily life.

How Can You Get Started?

Starting a yoga practice may seem intimidating at first, but it doesn't have to be. Consider starting with beginner-friendly classes to build a strong foundation and gradually progress as you become more comfortable with the practice.

Setting Realistic Goals

As you embark on your yoga journey in the new year, it's important to set realistic goals for yourself. Whether you aim to practice yoga a few times a week or simply want to focus on learning the basic beginner level poses, setting achievable goals will help you stay motivated and committed to your practice.

Creating a Sacred Space

One way to stay dedicated to your yoga practice is by creating a sacred space in your home where you can practice without distractions. Whether it's a corner of your living room or a dedicated yoga room, having a space that is conducive to your practice can help you stay focused and in tune with your body.

Joining a Community

Consider joining our yoga community to connect with like-minded individuals who can support you on your journey. We offer classes and workshops for beginners to experienced students.  We are a friendly studio with certified teachers who care about your progress and are there to teach and guide you along the way.  NOW is a great time to enrol in a class or a KickStart Program.

Christmas Class and Brunch Saturday 14 December 7.30am

Yoga

The end of the year deserves to be celebrated!  To say thank you for your support in 2024, we invite all our beautiful students to come along to a free Christmas Class.  This opportunity combines the benefits of yoga practice with the joy of coming together as a community.  

 

Brunch at Scrumptious 

After the class we will go downstairs for brunch.  Having brunch together is a great way to connect with fellow students for an informal catch up.  We have booked the cafe downstairs but require firm numbers by Monday 9 December.   (Each student will pay for their own meal).  I will place a list at the studio so you can indicate your attendance for either or both.

7.30am-8.30am - Free Christmas Class

8.45am - Brunch downstairs at Scrumptious

 

We look forward to seeing you to celebrate the end of another year of yoga.

Namaste

Tricia, Fiona, Sharon and Kim

 

Sound Bath 4.00-6.00pm Saturday 5 October

Let yourself be taken on a wonderful journey while being immersed by high vibrational sounds of amazing Gongs, Tibetan and Alchemy Crystal Singing Bowls, Shaman Drum, Chimes, Overtone Xylophone, Monochord and beautiful Channeled Toning that will transmit powerful codes for healing, inspiration and connection to the higher realms.

A Sound Bath will bring you into a deep state of relaxation, stimulating the innate healing abilities of your body. It helps pain relief, the release of calming hormones, improves the immune system and sleep quality. It offers the opportunity to be away from daily concerns and just surrender to the flow of beautiful, soothing sounds making you feel uplifted and supported.

Paulien Gort is an experienced Sound Healer who runs regular Sound Baths in Sydney. Bringing in her experience with shamanic healing, she facilitates powerful shifts on a physical/emotional/spiritual level.

Yoga for Children and Young Adults - October Holidays

School holidays are almost here and we are offering classes and workshops to provide some educational fun for all age groups.  Come along and enjoy the fun and learn some new skills.  Times and dates are below:

Wednesday 2 October

9.30-11.00am - Yoga for Children 5-11yrs + Bath Bomb Workshop

This class explores yoga poses with guidance from the teacher and some input from the children.  We focus on mindfulness, observation, listening, concentration, and learning to be still.  The yoga poses are taught without expectation or judgment to encourage participation and confidence.   The class will be loads of fun and build skills and team work.  Following the class we will make bath bombs which your children can take home.  Please bring a plastic container to carry them home in.

11.15am-12.45pm Yoga for 12yrs+ and Natural Perfume Workshop

This class teaches various yoga poses in action.  It's dynamic and teaches coordination, focus, mindfulness and observation.  We will work as a team and work as individuals to listen, observe and work steadily through the class.  The students will also have some input and contribute to the poses we learn as a group.  At the end of the class there will be a relaxation segment - a time to be quiet and look inwards.  We will observe our breath and learn to settle ourselves and be still.
After the Class we will make a natural perfume in a roller ball which can be taken home.  There will be a choice of essential oils including base notes which are grounding, top notes which are typically energising such as citrus oils, and everything in between.
Use the links below to purchase a pass and book the class (discounts for siblings).
