Yoga is my favorite modality, the base, the roots for so many things in my life. When I first started practicing yoga I favored strong practices like Ashtanga, Bikram, Vinyasa. I was still in a mindset that I needed to have a strong practice to have a strong body, which is probably partly true. After 17 years of mothering and working full-time and being a highly sensitive individual I realised that what I needed to be strong within myself is a gentle practice to give my body and mind a break and some nourishment.
Over the years my practice has changed a lot. When I first practiced Yin Yoga I felt like coming home in my yoga practice. My yoga practice is now very intuitive and interwoven with strong and gentle elements, plenty of time to experience the asanas / poses, plenty of variation to accommodate for our different bodies and skeletal structures, lots of time to breathe consciously and deep and I am providing a space where the mind can become calm and settled and the body feel nourished.
I strongly encourage building a deeper relationship with your own body and making your practice what suits you and what nourishes you on the day.
I don’t do many physical adjustment and prefer to guide my students verbally to learn to listen to their bodies and notice the adjustments that need to be done to suit your body. When I practice with other teachers and am a student myself I often adjust the guided practice to suit me – e.g. taking a child pose when I am tired, taking an easier version of a pose, e.g. low lunge instead of high lunge etc. I would like to to empower my students to intuitively know what is right for them in a safe container. We all have such different skeletal structures, different energy levels & emotional states depending on how our day was, what we are going through. Our practice needs to reflect this. There is no one for all solution & I try to support that in my sessions.
I have blankets, blocks and straps in this studio. Please bring your own Yoga Bolster (I use these in every session) and Yoga Mat. K-mart has budget versions of both. Ecoyogastore.com is based in Napier and has high quality and eco-friendly options that are priced higher and are good investments if you practice regularly.
The sessions are non-refundable, but you can transfer your ticket to a friend for certain nights when you can’t make it or come to another regular session of mine to make up for it.
If you have any questions or are wondering if these sessions would suit you, please feel free to be in touch [email protected] / 021 – 161 43 40.
