A little update ❤️

Unfortunately there will be No yoga tonight (Wednesday 10 June) due to a funeral of a dear friend.

I'm taking a little time to grieve, slow down, and be gentle with myself, so there won't be class this evening.

Thank you for your understanding and kindness. I'll be back as usual next week, and I'm looking forward to seeing you all then. 🤍

Take care of yourselves, and if you can, find a little moment today to breathe, rest, and go gently too.

🌿 Urgent Update 🌿

I’m so sorry for the late notice, but there will be no Wednesday night class tonight.

Thank you for your understanding — sometimes life asks us to pause and listen, just as we do on the mat 🤍

A little reminder as well that there will be no classes next week while I’m away on the mainland.

We’ll return Tuesday 31st, back to our usual rhythm as we continue to gently explore and support our nervous systems together 🧘‍♀️✨

Thank you for your flexibility and kindness — take care of yourselves tonight, maybe roll out your mat at home or simply rest 🌙

🌈 𝗖𝗹𝗮𝘀𝘀 𝗖𝗮𝗻𝗰𝗲𝗹𝗹𝗮𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻 𝗡𝗼𝘁𝗶𝗰𝗲 🌈

Just a heads up that Yin Yoga & Meditation class next Tuesday 10th will be cancelled due to mandatory First Aid training for work.

Apologies for any inconvenience 💛

All other classes are running as usual, and we’ll be back next week.

🧠✨ 𝗣𝗼𝗹𝘆𝘃𝗮𝗴𝗮𝗹 𝗧𝗵𝗲𝗼𝗿𝘆

Your nervous system is constantly checking in with the world, asking:

“𝘼𝙢 𝙄 𝙨𝙖𝙛𝙚 𝙧𝙞𝙜𝙝𝙩 𝙣𝙤𝙬?”

Because the nervous system always prioritises safety over logic, our reactions often happen before conscious thought 💭

When the body senses safety, we can soften, breathe deeply, connect with others, and feel present in ourselves🥰🫶🤗

When safety feels uncertain, the nervous system shifts into protection — moving us into fight, flight, or shutdown — often without conscious choice.🏃‍♀️🥶🫣

Yoga works directly with the nervous system. Through slow, mindful movement, steady breath, and rest, we offer the body signals of safety and support. Over time, this helps build trust within ourselves and expands our capacity to stay grounded, even when life feels challenging🧘‍♀️

🫧 Restorative Yin & Meditation | Tuesdays 9.30am-11am | $20
🫧 Community Yoga for Beginners | Tuesdays 4.30pm-5.30pm | $10 (bookings required)
🫧 Vinyasa Flow | Wednesdays 6pm-7pm | $15

This practice isn’t about “fixing” yourself. It’s about listening to your body and meeting it with care 🌿

🍂 Safety is the foundation of nervous system health. Without a felt sense of safety, our bodies and minds remain in hypervigilance or shutdown, limiting presence, learning, and healing.

This week we cultivate an awareness of where we feel secure — in our posture, our breath, and our environment🌸

Supporting the body through grounding postures, regulated breath and an awareness of alignment gives a sense of stability that the nervous system can rely on.

Safety is not passive. It is an active engagement with what feels reliable and supportive. We explore cues of safety in the body: the feet pressing into the floor, the spine stacking naturally, and the breath moving easily 🌬😌

When the body senses support, the parasympathetic nervous system can activate, promoting calm, restoration, and a capacity to learn new regulation skills.

🌺 Restorative Yin & Meditation | Tuesdays 9.30am-11am | $20
🌺 Community Yoga for Beginners | Tuesdays 4.30pm-5.30pm | $10 (bookings required)
🌺 Vinyasa Flow | Wednesdays 6pm-7pm | $15

🌿 𝐒𝐭𝐫𝐞𝐭𝐜𝐡, 𝐁𝐫𝐞𝐚𝐭𝐡𝐞, 𝐑𝐞𝐩𝐞𝐚𝐭 — 𝐇𝐞𝐥𝐥𝐨 𝟐𝟎𝟐𝟔! 🌿

Start 2026 grounded, present, and relaxed with our new term focus: 𝙉𝙚𝙬 𝙔𝙚𝙖𝙧, 𝙉𝙚𝙬 𝘾𝙖𝙡𝙢.

Enjoy gentle practices designed to support your nervous system, release stress, and build balance in body and mind. Beginning this week by setting intentions, exploring gentle movement and breath, and arriving fully present for the year ahead ✍️🍂

Each week, we’ll explore a different focus to support your nervous system and well-being:

• Safety First – Building a foundation of calm
• States of Being – Recognising your nervous system in action
• Grounding Practices – Returning to body and presence
• Movement as Medicine – Releasing tension and stored stress
• Breath for Balance – Using breath to regulate and restore
• Rest & Repair – Activating deep relaxation
• Window of Tolerance – Expanding resilience
• Triggers & Transitions – Responding with awareness
• Co-Regulation – The power of connection
• Sensory Awareness – Anchoring in the body
• Integration – Embodying calm resilience
• Embodied Presence – Bringing regulation into daily life

Class Times:
🧘‍♀️ Restorative Yin & Meditation: Tuesdays 9:30–11:00am
🧘‍♀️ Community Yoga: Tuesdays 4:00–5:00pm
🧘‍♀️ Vinyasa Flow: Wednesdays 6:00–7:00pm

✨ Step into the year with intention, ease, and calm. Join us on the mat and give your nervous system the care it deserves!

🌿 Class Update 🌿

Hi everyone! Just a heads up that there will be no Tuesday morning Yin or Tuesday afternoon Community Yoga this week. We’ll be back as usual on Wednesday at 6 pm for Vinyasa, and everything will be running normally next week 🙏💙

Thanks for your understanding, and can’t wait to see you on the mat soon! ✨

✨ TRUSTING THE PROCESS ✨

Strength isn’t always about pushing harder.
Sometimes it’s the quiet patience of showing up, breath by breath, even when the outcome isn’t clear yet 🌥

This week in class, we’re exploring the balance between strength and surrender—the strength of perseverance, and the surrender of trusting timing.

On the mat, that looks like letting your movement follow your breath instead of force… softening expectations… and allowing your body to open at its own pace.

In life, it’s remembering that growth is happening even when you can’t see it.

The seeds you’ve planted are rooting beneath the surface 🌱

Your only job is to stay present, stay gentle, and stay open to the unfolding.

Join me as we practice moving with rhythm rather than urgency, and honour the beautiful in-between space where change is already happening. 🌿🤍

🌟 Strength & Surrender Week 3 — Inner Power: Courage from the Core

True strength isn’t about force — it’s about self-trust, integrity, and moving from your centre. This week, we focus on embodied confidence, core strength, and noticing how your body supports courage in action.

It’s not about doing more — it’s about connecting with your centre, moving with quiet strength, and noticing how your body supports courage in every move.

Come explore:
• How your body feels when you move from choice, not force
• Embodied strength that’s steady, compassionate, and confident

Come as you are, move at your own pace, and notice what your body can do 🧘‍♀️
