Wednesday at 6pm at the Unanderra Community Centre ... heaters on!

We’ll be looking particularly at hips and forward bends in this coming week. Getting those hips mobile but strong is so important for giving the spine proper support in all our daily activities, and … this practice contributes to good health and function in the abdominal organs.

If you have a sore back I will show you how to approach forward bends in a safe manner and improve your mobility. This also applies to sore necks: it is perhaps surprising that it is often an incorrect method in forward bends that is exacerbating those neck problems.

I hope to see you in class : )

Be in the pose.

In class we learn many techniques to develop functional postural action, balance and control, and to direct our awareness in a more absorbing fashion. These things are important and have many remedial benefits. In class we learn stuff: developing knowledge and focus, we’re observed to ensure we don’t go astray and we’re given motivation and a trajectory - things often extremely difficult to develop on our own.

Like tinkering with the prized car in the garage every weekend, fine tuning, giving it a polish … that’s all very well … but sometimes we just need to enjoy taking it for a spin.

Sometimes we just need to be in the pose.

Heaters are on and we're ready to go at Unanderra, Wednesdays at 6pm ...

A bit of everything this week at the cosy and warm Moore Street Yoga Room! BKS Iyengar taught patience and judicious action in the movement of the body, mind and breath. Every pose is an exploration of these principles. Let’s see what we can do …

22/01/2023

Classes begin again for 2023 this Wednesday at 6pm with a class designed to help you relieve those sore backs - you don't need to have a sore back to experience the joys ; )

This week we’ll be doing work to ease those aches, pains and tensions in our backs. Whether occasionally or chronically, most of us have experienced back pain at some stage. The postures in class will be deeply restorative but also act to shift and release muscular tensions that lead to back pain. The different actions the postures prompt will bring deeper insight into how to manage your back longterm, whether or not you are currently experiencing discomfort. I hope to see you there.

Incidentally: there is no class this week on January 26, all other classes are as timetabled
