If you have been in the studio recently you must have spotted our big blister recycling box located by the entrance! 🌿

We have asked to explain a little bit more about where your blisters end up after you leave them in the box and here is what we can tell you :

-> Once the box is full it is picked up by a courier and is sent to Hull (England) - we haven't found anyone doing this type of recycling in NI yet!

-> The blisters are sorted, washed and shredded before being heated and pressed into plastic layers.

-> It can then be recycled and used for other purposes like construction work, joinery and more! 👷🏻‍♀️

-> Or the plastic is being reused by to create furniture or houseware, they even take commissions if you ever want something special made with the plastic you are sending away!
(We are currently investigating to see if something can be made for the studio) 🤗

-> The company guarantees a zero waste policy 🫶

Thank you for using the boxes as much as you have been, it is great to be able to use the studio in many ways to do our bit for the environment and to have such a receptive and caring community 💕

Have you met Maggie McCarney yet?

She is a brilliant teacher leading two practices a week at Maitri :

A gentle yoga practice on Wednesday mornings (10.30-11.30am) 🧘‍♀️
- If you are new to yoga or looking to experience the benefits of a breath-led practice this is a great class for you!

And a Chi Me practice on Friday mornings (10.30-11.30am) ☯
- Chi Me is a programme inspired by Tai-Chi movements that you can practice standing or seated!

Accessibility is at the heart of Maggie's offerings and both classes are adaptable and gentle on the body.

£10 drop-in and block booking fees available.
Contact Maggie at maggiemccarney@gmail.com for any questions and to book! 🤗

Another read for you all, thanks to Ollyn who is one of Claire's students! 🫶

We love that Ollyn enjoys her practice at Maitri Studio so much!

Of course we do add that not everyone might be ready for chair shoulderstand in their first full class - it'll depends on the teacher working with you and observing your practice and innate abilities.

There are all sorts of options and modifications to create a similar action in the body if for any reason a pose is not within your reach or suitable for your health conditions. Read more about Iyengar yoga classes at Maitri Studio on our website 🤗

"My first session at Maitri felt like coming home. I hadn’t practised Iyengar yoga for more than 30 years but somehow there was a body memory, however imperfect. Claire carries her yogic wisdom lightly, and shares it generously."

Thank you Geraldine! Delighted you're enjoying the practice once more and thank you for being equally generous with your feedback 😊

Here is some feedback from past sessions :

“A really lovely afternoon inna very safe and comfortable space, thanks to Clare. A great taster to experience breath work, movement and meditation.”

“You won’t realise how much you need this until you experience it.”

“It just completely slowed my thoughts and breathing down. It was also very different from anything I have done before. Best 3 hours of me time. Everyone should do it.”
