By practicing gentle Hatha Yoga we learn how to connect our bodies movements in a natural and calming way that also allows our mind to relax yet remain focused on performing the movements correctly.
This form of yoga is absolutely ideal for beginners and intermediates that want to liven up their practice. It is both mildly energetic and calming at the same time allowing you to relax and unwind quickly and easily while keeping your blood flowing at a health beneficial level.

YIN Yoga in Bairnsdale
Sorry this class is currently not running
Yin yoga is a slow-paced style of yoga practice. The poses are passive, and produce little active strain on muscles. They are not intended to strengthen and challenge the physical body, but stretch out, restore and unwind areas of stress and tension in the body and mind. Therefore, yin yoga mostly consists of non-stressful yoga and meditation which are passive yet effective in nature. It emphasizes mainly on the connecting tissues like tendons, fascia and ligaments and releasing the tensions between the muscles in a relaxing way. It helps in building inner wellbeing, restoration of broken tissues and muscles from the past. It recharges the energetic system of the body and draws the mind inward for a relaxed and meditative state. Postures are held for up to 4 minutes allowing you to go much deeper into the stretches.
Recommended for beginners or people who are recovering from injuries or sickness. All levels are welcome, every body benefits from mindful, meditative, gentle movement and deep stretching.
Please bring your own yoga mat and props like blankets, bolster or cushions and blocks if you have them. Let me know if you don’t have any yoga gear and I can provide some.
Prenatal Yoga
Please get in touch if interested
Pregnancy is a special time to connect, trust and explore your body. Yoga is invaluable throughout pregnancy. Woman are encouraged to connect to their intuition and instinct as their first and foremost guide for a safe practice. This will help them connect with their initiate birthing wisdom. The classes are a balance of active and meditative practices. Woman are welcome to leave a pose out and rest whenever they need to. This is not like the usual yoga you might have experienced before as your body is changing and we explore how to flow with the changes.
Enjoy your practice during this special time! The overall approach to asana is to emphasise strength and stability, postural alignment, embodiment, alongside flowing circling movement connected to the breath.
