Chill with Katherine

Dreams do come true.

My family and I have longed to live by the sea for years and now it has happened. It’s been a magical ride.

We’ve been blessed to spend time amongst the trees, enjoy walks to the beach, and meet new friends.

I have been enjoying the Nanaimo Aquatics Center (which happens to be the largest indoor pool on the island).

This first-ever Aqua Yoga class at Beban pool is now full with a waitlist. I look forward to expanding my offerings should the opportunity arise.

Hold space for and nurture your heart’s desire.

Excited to see the community in Corpus Christi this October for retreat!

Aqua Yoga classes start in Nanaimo in September!!! Space is limited. Join us!

Greetings from Canada! 🌊 Please check out my latest newsletter - https://mailchi.mp/684c17dcd0bd/march-17221459

Back on the road again after 2 wonderful night with friends in Tucson. 🌸Rahim picked a Mother’s Day bouquet for me at a truck stop in New Mexico. Love this little dude!🦋We all enjoyed the butterfly room at the Tucson Botanical Gardens. So many beautiful cacti!! Rahims working on his camera smile 😊 While I appreciate the beauty of the desert it is clear my system requires more humidity! Holy-moly it’s hot and dry mid-day here!!!! 🔥🔥🔥

We did it. We left Austin today. On our way west before we start driving north up to Canada. It’s been a real journey. Just getting to the beginning of this journey. Goodbye Austin. Goodbye sweet community. Thank you for over 20 years of fun, love and beauty!

Just 3 More Aqua Yoga Classes With Me. Learn more > https://mailchi.mp/62f007c27479/march-16523667

Aqua variation with straps.
A great variation for increase leg strength and spinal length!

Try threading a yoga strap into a lap lane hook, make a loop and climb on into it.

Holding a noodle, walk feet up the wall as close to water-line as you can and still feel at ease.

Take a wide stance on the wall with the strap across your sacrum.

Holding the noodle, straighten your legs, turning your toes to the left -keep feet flat on the wall (Trikonasa leg/foot position).

Keep the spine long as you bring your upper body flush to the waterline.

Extend the noodle “over-head”, moving left, hand towards left leg. Right arm extends away from wall.

Take a few deep, slow breaths.

Repeat 2nd side.

Pick up! 🪷

Aqua Yoga Retreat! Day 2. So beautiful 💗💦✨

When we practice yoga on land, sometimes we can get overly concerned with getting our hands to the floor.

For example, in the Revolved Triangle, if we have injury or a lack of mobility and focus on grabbing the ankle or touching the floor, Revolved Triangle pose can feel quite restrictive and then the breath stops.

With Aqua Yoga , touching the floor or not touching the floor is a non-issue. One hand holds the wall or noodle as the water supports and unloads the spine often resulting in a feeling of spaciousness -room to expand and open the chest instead of constrict it.

Wishing I had a real pool in my yard. You know I’d be doing that sweet Aqua Yoga everyday!

My 3 year-old son took this picture of me with my Go-Pro last year (note is fingers). Great composition! I didn’t think he knew how to take photos.

Leaking Stress? Aqua Yoga can help! - https://mailchi.mp/a54c7581c41b/aqua-yoga-for-balance-8771819

Practice being supportive and supported with this variation of Tree. It’s a nice way to practice balance without taking it all too seriously. The community and water is there for you. We are stronger together.

Wanna try Aqua Yoga tonight?? Coleen will be leading the 5:30pm class tonight at Waterloo Swimming. A couple spots still available. Register for tonight’s class at https://www.katherinewinge.com/aquayoga-classes
