SHAKE THE DUST ✨
This Friday at HUM Yoga with Allie Kennedy

A movement practice to awaken the body, shake loose stagnant energy, and reconnect to the pulse of aliveness within.

Expect breath, rhythm, sweat, release, grounding, freedom, and space to move beyond the thinking mind and into something more instinctive, embodied and real.

Part somatic movement, part ritual, part catharsis, Shake the Dust invites us to soften the armour, move what’s been stuck, and remember the body as a living expression of energy, presence and prayer.

No performance.
No need to “get it right.”
Just movement, music, breath and the permission to fully arrive.

Come as you are.
Leave feeling clearer, lighter, more connected.

This Friday May 15th

6:15pm- 7:30pm

At Hum, we honour the many expressions of mothering.

The carers, nurturers, protectors, space holders and gentle guides who move through the world offering presence, care and unconditional love. The essence of mothering lives far beyond a title, it lives in the everyday acts of tenderness, sacrifice, patience and devotion that help others feel safe, seen and supported.

Today, we also hold space for those who long to be mothers, those grieving loss, those navigating distance or complexity, and anyone for whom this day carries tenderness.

And we honour our great Mother Earth our first teacher. Not a resource to be consumed, but a living being who nourishes, sustains and cares for us all. May we remember to move in reciprocity with her, with ourselves, and with each other.

To celebrate the spirit of nurturing and care in all its forms, today only we’re offering 20% off all 10 class packs using the code MOTHER
Thank you for being part of the Hum community.

With love,
The Hum Team xx

Celebrating Mother’s Day, HUM is partnering with Embodyme for an evening of slow practice, sensory ritual, and gentle reconnection.

Embodyme is emotion-led body care, creating sensory rituals through scent and touch to help women choose how they want to feel and return to themselves. For this evening, we’ll centre around Kindness, a gentle reminder to soften and meet yourself where you are.

Together, we’ll explore the idea of kindness, something we so freely offer to others, yet often forget to extend to ourselves. It’s about creating a small moment of self-connection through the senses: breath, scent, and touch woven through the practice.

We’ll settle into a 75-minute Yin practice led by Kirsty, known for her compassionate guidance. Throughout the practice, we’ll incorporate Embodyme’s Kindness Body Oil, engaging the senses to support a soft return inward.

Afterwards, stay for light snacks, connection, and a relaxed conversation with Sarah, founder of Embodyme, who will share the story behind the brand and her intention of creating small rituals of care.

This gathering is open to mothers, caregivers, mother figures, and anyone wishing to share this experience together.

Each guest will receive a 100ml Kindness Body Oil to take home, along with the opportunity to explore the full range of Embodyme body care.

An evening to soften, slow, and return to yourself ✨

Friday 8th May | 7:00–8:15pm

Join us at HUM Yoga for a deeply nourishing experience with Begum Kiremitcioglu—an intimate evening of Restorative Breathwork and Blue Lotus Tea.

We begin with a mindful Blue Lotus tea ritual, a sacred plant known for its calming, gently euphoric qualities. A moment to arrive, to ground, and to set a quiet intention for the evening ahead.

From here, you’ll be guided into a restorative breathwork journey—designed to regulate the nervous system and support soft emotional release. As the body unwinds, the breath becomes an anchor… guiding you back to balance, clarity, and inner stillness.

We’ll then move into a gentle lotus meditation, inviting openness, presence, and subtle expansion within.

This is a space to be held.
To slow down.
To reconnect, safely, softly, and deeply.

We’ll close with time for integration, allowing you to land gently before returning to the outside world.

A beautiful opportunity to rest, reset, and come home to yourself 🌿

An invitation to join us for 30 days of yoga practice!

Get on your mat every day and let the practice work its quiet magic. Some days will feel strong, some slow—and somewhere in there, things begin to change.

Think:
a stronger, more capable body
a calmer nervous system
a clearer head, better sleep, more energy

To get you started, enjoy 20% off our monthly auto-renew with code 30DAYS (cancel anytime).

Begin May 1st. Move with us through to the 30th—or keep going.

We’ll sprinkle in a few spot prizes along the way, but the real reward is how it feels to show up for yourself, every day. Our teachers are here to support you—so you can move through the world feeling steady, clear, and more able to support yourself, your whānau, and your community.

Ready?

Happy Earth Day 🌻

We only have one, and she is not here to be taken from or used up.

She is soft.

A place to call home.

The mother of mothers.

She holds us without asking, feeds us without condition, and offers her beauty freely in the oceans, soil, sky, breath. Not a resource… but a relationship.

Can we meet her with care?
Can we soften the way we move across her?
Tend to her gardens, walk a little more gently, and remember what it is to belong here.

What will you commit to today to honour her?

Maybe it’s something simple…
choosing less, consuming more consciously
planting something, or tending to what is already growing
picking up rubbish, even if it isn’t yours
pausing to watch the sky, the trees, the quiet life all around you
offering gratitude before your next meal

Small acts, done with love, as she loves us.

Let today be a remembering.
That we are not separate from this earth, we are part of her.

With all our hearts at HUM,
Happy Earth Day xx.

✨ An evening to soften, to sing, to receive and to enter the heart

Join for a deeply nourishing Bhakti Yin journey where gentle yin postures meet devotional mantra, guiding you into rest, reflection, and connection.

We begin with cacao to open the heart, setting intention before moving into a slow, soulful practice woven with sacred chants, storytelling, and meaning.

Through themes of devotion, wisdom, and release, you’ll be invited inward, to soften into stillness, to listen, and to reconnect with the river of wisdom within.

Closing in circle, we land together in shared presence, integration, and community.

A space to rest, to feel, to remember. 🌀

Ready to deepen the way you hold space?

Allie is BACK ✨

After a 6-week immersion in Bali, she returns with fresh energy, inspiration, and magic… and we couldn’t be more excited to welcome back Shake the Dust 💫

Friday April 10th

6:15–7:30pm

After a wee break, this beloved practice is back. Guided by rhythm and poetic themes as we move through waves of shaking, jumping, dancing, strength, yoga, and stillness.

This is your invitation to move honestly, breathe deeply, and release what you no longer need to carry.

No perfect shapes. No choreography. Just expression, resilience, and reconnecting to the wild intelligence of your body.

Come to sweat, feel, and move freely…
Leave lighter, clearer, and more alive ✨
