Ebb and Flow Yoga
I offer yoga classes & retreats in beautiful Central Otago (Cromwell) New Zealand. Join me on the mat
My yoga mat is my place of refuge, but also getting out into nature is as well. You can practice yoga anywhere…wherever you can enliven the senses, challenge your balance and harmony, being ok with discomfort, even embracing it. This is where I escaped to on Christmas Day….it was amazing on many levels. Remember to take your yoga off the mat 🧘♀️🙏❤️ anywhere
Wishing you a gentle 2024. Although 2023 may have been a challenging year, there will be hidden gems to lean into when we look back with time and space. Are you excited about the new lessons coming your way in 2024? One constant is our mat, yoga practice and breath. This is my refuge…what/where is your refuge? With much love for a peaceful, joy-filled year 🙏❤️ thanks for sharing
How are you feeling as 2023 is winding down? Before we get to the last day of the year, we have to navigate Christmas first. How are your Christmas plans going? Do you even have any plans? Like our yoga practice, the lead up to the 25th will look and feel different for us all. At least we can pause, take a moment, breathe and be present to all that arises. I hope you enjoy reading my latest blog....and have a peaceful Christmas 💖🙏🧘
Let's bring some Yoga cheer to Christmas this year.... Wow....another year has passed us by. 2023 has been a challenging year for many.....and it’s not quite over yet. The annual countdown towards Christmas is in full swing, whether you’re ready or not. With all that involves. The infectious excitement of your children’s or grandchildren’s expec...
My walk today at the Sluicings in Bannockburn. Quite chilly….about 6c but the colours were amazing. Working on my fitness for a new adventure- snow shoeing (with yoga!) on a weekend retreat with Tekapo Wellness. Any locals keen to join me on 8 September?! ❄️😄

I've just published my first blog in a long time. Have a read, and let me know what you think. Have you found your sweet spot?...I hope so, cos it feels SO good! 🙏🧘💖
In search of a sweet spot.... Sometimes we need to rest, take a break, find our new sweet spot. This started for me back in February 2021. Re-reading my last blog from the end of 2020, I wrote “2020 has shown me I am ready to embrace change, to step out of my comfort zone and head off into the unknown. I’m ready to learn new...
The time feels right to get back into working my yoga business. Looking forward to sharing my love of yoga with more locals here in Cromwell. And, I’m on the lookout for a suitable venue to run yoga retreats in Central Otago. Maybe incorporating my 2nd love…tramping 🥾😊🙏 🙏 ❤️ ❤️
I’m back teaching yoga classes in Cromwell & loving it! I’ve got a great group of ladies & one gent joining me on the mat. I love seeing their faces when they come out of supported twisting child pose…serenity… And then we enjoyed a cuppa at Pinot Junction in the historic precinct. Perfect way to start the week 🙏 🙏 ❤️ ❤️
After a 12 month sabbatical from yoga, this week has reawakened my love for yoga again, beginning with an International Yoga Day event in Wanaka last Sunday to a couple of classes at Central Yoga Studio in Cromwell, continuing teacher training online with J Brown Yoga in US & today, again in Wanaka, a workshop with Peter Sterios. I’m loving the subtle & The Healing Power Of Softness in my yoga practice. Looking forward to teaching again…in Cromwell and maybe I will brave online classes again. Let me know if you’re interested.
Happy International Women's Day...🦋🌻💋 ❤️
How was your yoga practice this morning? Did you stretch in happy baby? Did you prep for headstand? Did you include halasana? Love it 😊
Simple beauty is ever present. A memory is stirred. This is a reminder that yoga does not only ‘happen’ on the mat. Connection. Union. Love. Liberation. My practice has been sporadic since February. Sometimes we have to drop something, to pick it up again when the time is right. I’m feeling the stirrings of a new purpose, a new direction….loss and a new beginning. ❤️
So much has happened since my last post which feels like another life! I have relocated to Central Otago and love it, while still finding my feet. In the last few months I have discovered HIIT and love how I'm working my body. My yoga practice is tending to be late afternoon restorative/yin focused. Today being the full moon I decided to do this practice from last April's lockdown on the Barrier, and thought I'd share it. See if you can tap into the energy of the full moon over the next few days. Ahhh, there is no place like my mat! 🙏🧘💖

Day 6 of 7. A good all round practice which includes some twists. I hope you enjoy the class. It has set me up nicely for my planned hike between Wanaka and Queenstown. Have a great day! 🙏

Day 5 of 7. Today's sequence pick was a perfect follow on from yesterday's class. There is a little bit of increasing strength work for the core and shoulders, and some good balancing poses. Grateful for my practice and my body....what are you grateful for? Have a great day!

Day 4 of 7. So nice to just roll out of bed on to the mat in my pj's and wake up the body. Now I feel more space in my torso, aware of my breath and enjoying a cuppa. And planning my day.... Have a great day! 🙏

Day 3 of 7. My choice of daily class is random - just a quick look through of my FB library. So far the each choice has been a nice build onto the previous practice. Today some abdominal and shoulder work which felt good. A nice way to begin my day, with a long drive ahead through central Otago. Have a great day! 🙏

Day 2 of 7 This class is a nice follow on from yesterday. Some good hip stretches which I appreciated after all the sitting and driving I've been doing recently. Nice to connect movement with the breath too. Enjoy! 🙏

SO.....I HAVE SET MYSELF A CHALLENGE....want to join me?? For the next 7 days I'm going to practice one of my uploaded COVID classes from last year. Some of you may know that for the last 5 weeks I've been travelling in a Motorhome in the South Island of NZ and unfortunately my mat has remained in its bag. Enough.... Each day for the next week I'll post the sequence I have done and invite you to practice it as well. Today's sequence was a nice ease back into body awareness, and boy it felt good!! Let me know how you go, especially if like me your practice has lapsed recently, for whatever reason. To begin....roll out your mat 😏
