Welcome to a new year of yoga!  Term 1 is an 11 week term and starts on Monday 29 January.  Please note there are no classes in the week commencing Monday 22 April due to teachers undertaking Professional Development in Canberra.

We have a great year planned and I am working on locking in some workshops with guest teachers, as well as the usual workshops I teach in the studio on a regular basis.  Here is an outline of what's to come:

  • Fiona is again teaching an 8 week Pranayama Practice session each Friday at 6.45am from 2 February, in the studio and online;
  • and lots more.

 

We are a small studio and offer high quality classes with attention to detail.  We focus on teaching our students in a wholistic and comprehensive manner.  We can only continue to offer this high standard of classes and workshops with your support.  We look forward to teaching you again in 2024 to support your yoga practice and overall health and wellbeing.

Intensive 

Friday 19, Saturday 20, Sunday 21, and Monday 22 January 2024

I love, love, love teaching the Intensive each year.  The New Year is an opportunity to start with a clean slate, to set goals and to move forward in a way that's free of the past.  There is a freshness and a lightness to the New Year which is well suited to the mindset of Intensives.  Intensives are designed to focus your awareness on your yoga practice in a way that you wouldn't necessarily do by simply coming to class each week.  We can look more deeply into different aspects of asana and pranayama as well as restorative asanas.  It can give students clarity and insight into their practice and allows us to start the New Year with energy and positivity.  The Intensive is open to all students who have a solid foundation in basic standing poses, shoulder stand and halasana.  As numbers are limited, priority will be given to students who attend all 7 sessions.  There are options for 5 and 6 sessions but it is preferable to do the whole Intensive.   I will consider taking 4 session bookings if we have places available closer to the time.


Dates and Times:

Friday 19 January - 6.00-7.30pm
Saturday 20 January - 8.30-10.30am and 4.00-5.30pm
Sunday 21 January - 8.30-10.30am and 4.00-5.30pm
Monday 6.30-8.00am and 6.00-7.30pm.
