Relaxation Class — Mondays (not public holidays) 9am – 10am
Start the week positively! A simple 1 hour session which begins with 30 minutes of breathing, stretching/limbering and postures to prepare the body and mind for the relaxation practice that follows.
The ability to relax is a profound skill and requires practice for most people. The very first step is to know how it feels. The ultimate aim is to experience our natural self unimpeded by negative thoughts, emotions, or body tensions. It is one way to begin to know the self more fully. This session is suitable for almost everyone. I am hoping that those with particular difficulty in relaxing will find it especially useful.

Seniors Class — Tuesdays, 10am – 11.30pm
This class has been ongoing for a number of years with various teachers. I am privileged to be the current teacher. The ages of students range from 60 to 80+ years. Some of the students have been practising yoga for years and are a total inspiration while others are new to yoga. It is best to phone me first and discuss your needs and whether the class is suitable for you. There is never a class without some laughter.

Beginners Class — Thursdays, 4.15 – 5.30pm
There is something very exciting about sharing students’ first experiences of yoga as they discover new aspects of themselves. It reminds me of what I love about yoga. In this class we focus on the basics of breathing awareness,stretching/limbering,postures, relaxation, and a little philosophy. I try to work in a way that suits individual needs, where ever the starting point may be, building suppleness, strength, and self awareness.

I am very happy to discuss any queries that prospective students might have. Phone: 40 535 910 or email me.
I have been very influenced by
Sri Swami Kamala-Mata Aranya. ...She strongly emphasised a compassionate and simple approach to living and encouraged each student to find their own individual yogic path.
