Next Sunday people! You will book through the mind body app. I’m also teaching Yogalaties, a yoga Pilates blend tomorrow night 7pm at the Base. PM if you need help with the booking system 😊

Happy New Year yogis! I spent last week enjoying ALL of the yoga and Pilates I could in Pāpāmoa and am ready to get back into it! A few changes this year as my schedule changes:

This year’s offerings:
Sunday evening yoga (the one with the head massage 😉)

Tuesday evening yogalaties. A combination of yoga, Pilates (I trained at the end of last year!) and meditation/breath work.

I’ll be working out of the The Base, but you don’t need to be a member to just drop into classes. More details to follow.

Today’s memory! How can it be 7 years ago? I found that training gruelling if I’m honest. Thank goodness Mela Erin Anderson came and dried my tears and bought me steak and chocolate 💪 Time for some more training I think 😉

This week we are all about moving our bodies to find the joy! Thursday class is full, but there is space Wednesday morning 6-7am!

See you all tomorrow night 🥰

I have a blimmin’ meeting tonight so no live yoga session. Let me know if you’d be keen for a Friday night class and we can do that instead. 😘

Back by popular demand...

I’m doing it again team! Live yoga session tomorrow night 7.30pm on Gore Yoga page...I’ll try keep to time this week 🤦‍♀️ I just love planning our sessions 🥰

Please share with anyone you think would like some yoga in their lives. The great thing about Lives is that there is no limit on numbers 🙌🏻

Hey team! Tomorrow night I’ll be taking a live 30min yoga session over on The Base’s page! 7.30pm. Hope to see you there 😘 It’s not a Thursday without yoga 🧘‍♀️

No yoga this week as we are in level 4.

Last time this happened, I was 38 weeks pregnant, so Mike went to Guthrie Bowron, purchased a drop cloth and we prepared for a home birth 😳 (real classy I know!). Today’s announcement definitely triggered a few of those anxious and uncertain feelings from last time, so a few viloma breaths were used to calm the nervous system.

I hope you too can also use some gems from class over the next few days to move through this (hopefully brief) time.

Much aroha 😘

Side note: we did have a homebirth two weeks into the lockdown with Miss Amelia Rose arriving in time for Easter eggs on Easter Sunday. Wild. I’ll never look at my lounge floor the same...

We start to explore the niyamas this week, beginning with saucha - cleanliness. Here is a wee section of my house that I enjoy tidying at the end of the day. It’s easy to sort and gives me some calm at the end of the day, but saucha is so much more than keeping a tidy house!

Yoga this week focuses on sustaining our energy! There have been a lot of good conversations about our first and final poses being the most challenging as we have to surrender ourselves and quieten our minds, which often makes us feel vulnerable. It is definitely a skill that needs practiced.

Rituals! When this candle gets lit, it means kids are fed, dishes are done and kitchen and dining areas are clean for the night. 😅😅 It can be a chaotic time of night with three wee ones.

What are your rituals? I know some of you have certain rituals when you come to class...I see them 😉

Concession cards!

Sometimes getting out the door to yoga is hard enough without having to remember $10 or you forget to transfer money SO maybe purchasing a concession card is for you. These need to be used within 3 months, so if you’re a regular let me know if you’d like to purchase. $90 for 10 sessions, so a blimmin’ bargain too 🙌🏻

As always, PM to book a mat for tonight’s class.

This week we will enjoy a practice that balances the Vata dosha - lots of lovely grounding sequences.

This is our final dosha. What one do you think is your most dominant?

Sorry team, but I’m a sick yogi and classes are cancelled this week. I managed to push through last week and LOVE seeing you, but think I may need to practise some ahimsa and try and get myself right...whilst running around after 3 children of course! It takes a lot for me to cancel a class. See you all on the mat next week 😢

This week we move onto our second dosha, kapha! People who are kapha dominant are nurturing, loyal, grounded and reliable...when balanced 🤪

This week we start an exploration of the three dosha types. Are you Pitta, Vata or Kapha?? I find these so interesting to help get some insight into our personality. I’m a bit Pitta, so we’re starting there tomorrow!
