Here’s some bunny good inspiration for your home practice.

“True concentration is an unbroken thread of awareness…” - B.K.S Iyengar.

This sensation might be briefly experienced when we spend time in nature with no distractions, but in yoga we train this awareness through the practice of āsana, prāņāyāma and meditation. The more we are able to feel, the longer we can maintain the art of true concentration - both on and off the mat.

As the autumn colours express themselves, it’s a sign that we’re heading into the cooler months. And with these darker nights beckoning, our Tuesday evening class has moved to and will take place here until 27 October,

“Balance does not mean merely balancing the body. Balance in the body is the foundation for balance in life. In whatever position one is in, or in whatever condition in life one is placed, one must find balance. Balance is the state of the present — the here and now. If you balance in the present, you are living in Eternity.”

- B.K.S Iyengar
