We encourage yoga practice delivered at a level appropriate for the practitioner. OM People Yoga provides an inspiring yet non-competitive and encouraging atmosphere to help you live a more conscious, connected and present life.

As we prepare to cross the threshold into 2026 we are reflecting on our year at The Bridge School

Our work fuses passion for the way regular practice can support living with authenticity + connection and our many years of friendship.

2025 @ The Bridge School:

• After years of collaboration, Ziggy joined The Bridge as an official co-partner and head facilitator.
• We proudly relaunched our website and online platform.
• We offered over 100 1:1 sessions sharing personalised yoga therapy and mentoring.
• We ran our 200hr Hatha Yoga training with an incredible group of people from our international community.
• We journeyed to India for our pilgrimage to honour the historical and cultural roots of Yoga.
• We shared our Beyond Rest immersion exploring the neuroscience of deep rest and the technology of restorative practice and Yoga Nidra.

Thank you for connecting with us here and to all those who joined us in person and online in 2025. Sharing this work with you means the world to us.

Step inside our yearly restorative immersion, where we don’t just practice restorative yoga.

We learn how to create the conditions for deep rest to occur… skills that you will take with you and use for many years to come.

That’s why we offer Beyond Rest as an immersion and not just a retreat. Deep rest and recovery is such a vital skill that we spend time exploring the neuroscience of rest, tools for individualised nervous system regulation as well as yogic practices.

This month @ The Bridge School we shared our annual Beyond Rest Immersion.

This 3 day restorative cocoon has become one of the immersions that we receive the most enquiries about…this no doubt speaks to the high levels of stress, fatigue and burn out we encounter every day through clinical work and yoga facilitation.

We need rest as much as we need to create and experience

Rest is not just stopping or sleeping.

We load our system in so many different ways each day and ideally the way we rest targets specific strategies for each of these load categories… think of it as your rest menu.

With our busy culture and the capitalist systems that continue to push and grind us into doing more, choosing to rest , making time for rest and actually practicing resting regularly is truly revolutionary.

Restorative Yoga is an elegant and masterful system for creating the conditions for deep rest, recovery and reconnection to ourselves

But there are so many other ways you can curate time to rest

So…how will you rest today?

We are incredible proud to introduce you to the newest graduates from our Hatha training program.

They spent 4 months studying the depth of Traditional Ta***ic Hatha Yoga and how we can make classes neuroscience informed and inclusive for all.

It takes a big commit to complete a training like this. Much time, effort, many hours of study and practice.

From here they have all the tools, maps and embodied experience to share this practice with others if they desire it.

We seal this training with a trip to Rishikesh to honour the cultural and historic roots of Yoga. This part is very important to us as people who practice Yoga very far away from its origins.

Here, with the mighty river Ganga and the Himalayan mountains watching outside our shala window we complete our time together with what we call a 💗celebration 💗 - experiencing each person share yoga from their hearts.

We don’t call it a ‘teaching test’ because in truth all we can ever do is acknowledge what has touched our hearts through years of practice and the experience of living… and then share that with others in the hope it may support them too.

Many tears were shed as the words and presence of each person touched us.

Thank you

One of the most special parts of being away on immersion is watching everyone’s face transform.

Our features soften, our eyes sparkle more, we smile more warmly with our whole faces and as our beloved says when he is with us on our India pilgrimage, we all have “full moon faces” 🌝

Our journey in Rishikesh immersing in the roots of Hatha Yoga and the Himalayan tradition has closed but the depths we touched, which can be seen in our eyes we will take with us as we transition home.

Snippets from our Naarm 200hr Hatha training shared from July - October.

Many hours of exploring asana, pranayama, bandha, kriya, mudra, mantra and meditation.

Our focus is on experience which is then anchored through philosophy, study and neuroscience.

We share this training in person but it is also open to those overseas or interstate to follow along online.

This hybrid training gives access to curious practitioners wanting to immerse in Ta***ic Hatha no matter where they live or how much time they can carve out of their lives.

Our weekend immersion together are spread across 4 months to allow time for practice, reflection and integration.

These bright souls have put in so much work and next week we will seal the experience with 8 days together in Rishikesh to honour the roots of Yoga practice.

Special thanks to .attunement and for assisting this journey. We couldn’t do it without your big hearts, wisdom and deep love of yoga

‘You are the bridge’ is not just our mission statement; its an invitation to remember…

…who you really are beyond the stress and pressure of who we are told to become

Its not easy to live consciously with so many personal, familial and societal stressors in our lives

but the core of Ta***ic Hatha teachings offer practice as a bridge towards the qualities and capacities we would like to cultivate and embody.

Through practice we learn to create the conditions for an authentic and embodied experience of true presence, capacity for change and to feel truly connected to yourself, others and the world around you.

We practice and it is all possible..

But our invitation is to remember that YOU are the bridge…

A metaphor that represents your innate capacity for presence, change and connection.

Practice helps us cultivate it but it all happens through you. A returning to these core human capacities despite the challenges of life.

You are the bridge

Our deepest passion comes from creating spaces where we can remember this together, in community.
