YIN-YANG
This practice is about balancing the masculine with the feminine, the action with the relaxation, fluidity and stillness. The class will represent a fusion of gentle flows complemented with long deepening holds to amplify your sense of calm and give your connective tissue/ fascia as well as your mind, time to unwind and recalibrate.
FLOW
Build your fire, energy and life-force through a creative series of fluid, dynamic and strength and flexibility building poses and sequences. Classes are always varied to keep you on your toes and there's always a challenge or an easier option available to suit the state you're in.
YIN
My favourite, this class takes you deeper, within and facing into your shadow, those aspects we spend less time facing into. In a short while, you lose a sense of time and discover expansive space and awareness as you feel the vastness of you. This is achieved through meditation, breath techniques and long holds in poses.
UPCOMING EVENTS
‘YIN, REIKI AND SOUND IN THE BARN’
Feeling depleted and craving time out? Limited on time? This nourishing retreat is a short amount of time for a long amount of relaxation!
You enter a cosy candlelit barn, warmed by infrared heaters for Wintertime. Dried floral accents and hanging botanicals add to that country affair in a 100 year old shed aka ‘barn’. Enjoy the high vibes healing from sound healing and reiki as you arrive and finish, sandwiched by a juicy yin flow to unwind in between. Breathe in native NZ botanicals and essential oils as you inhale your way to blissed out peace, ending in a long shavasana with warm river stones on your body.
If this sounds like you, don’t hesitate to reach out and pay the $45 to secure your spot. These events always sell out and spaces are limited so it’s an intimate event.

YIN AND JOURNALING
Yin and journaling – monthly Monday eve Take the time to go yin-to-you. Have you ever experienced the relaxation, tranquillity and space in your body and being during yin, but feel there’s an outlet missing for processing those thoughts and feelings that come up, especially during hip openers? This is for you. Together we evolve and awaken, discovering our deepening layers through yin with poignant pauses to punctuate the discomfort and channel your mental chatter, present and past pain, and emotional wonderings in a detoxifying cleansing process. Emerge anew.
