Yoga course - basics to flow

This is an 8 week yoga course running every Tuesday evening 6 -715 pm at the Old School in Raglan starting May 10th, finishing June 28th. For people new to yoga and also for intermediate practitioners - This yoga course is people wanting to go more in-depth into the alignment of yoga poses/ asana, build up to a flow and their own home practice. We will cover:

⁃ Presence through mindful integrative movement

A huge thank you to the Loft community for helping us celebrate our last month in the studio. It was so wonderful to share practice, breath, stories, tears and laughter with you all.



Thank you also to everyone who wrote us the most beautiful and heartfelt letters and messages, you don’t often realize the effect that a community driven business has.



Thank you to all the teachers who put time, energy and love into the studio over the years and shared what they had to offer to the community.



This is not the end of us all sharing and creating yoga community. Stay tuned for future offerings of classes, workshops, sound journeys, retreats, immersions and collaborations.



We may no longer have the beautiful studio that was the Loft but we have kept all our equipment to host and provide offerings in a different format next year.



Happy festive season, see you all in 2022.



Warmest,



Anna and Shannon. x

FAREWELL to the Raglan Yoga LOFT

To our wonderful Loft community,

It is with a heavy heart that we deliver the news that The Raglan Yoga Loft will be closing its doors permanently at Christmas time.

We want to honor and acknowledge the teachers and students who have supported this little local business over our 5 ½ years of bringing many different offerings to the community including weekly classes, teacher trainings and workshops, without you all the Loft would not be what it is today. A place of community, connection and inclusiveness.

Many factors have combined to make this decision. The uncertainty of the present and the year ahead. The challenge of running a studio in this current climate, and having to navigate between the choice of financial viability and our ethos, which is one of inclusivity and community.

We will miss the chats pre and post class, the hugs, the laughs, the tears and the studio!!!!! We encourage you to use up your passes, come and share yoga, movement and breath with us over the next 5 weeks and help us to farewell the Loft.

All classes will be $10 drop ins across the board or we will have 5 class concessions available at $50.

If you have any queries to do with your passes purchased In the last 6 months please don’t hesitate to contact us directly at raglanyogaloft@gmail.com before the end of the year.

From the bottom of our hearts thank you for gathering, practicing and creating community with us over the years. We will miss you all.

Warmest,
Anna and Shannon.

Join the lovely Tennille and check out her new offering and platform.

For the Raglan yoga loft community, experience 7 days of free content ❤️. This includes asana, meditation, pranayama and journal prompts.

Yoga was never intended to be bound by a physical practice. Yoga, in its roots, created a physical practice, known as Asana, to prepare the body for meditation.
The expand membership is to take you from a physical Asana practice, to something that helps you embed habits into daily life. Because I believe it’s a combined amount of small things that create a ripple effect of change in your life. -Tennille.

Go to taiyospace.com for more information.

Hi Loft community, entering into level 3 once again means the studio will be closed for the time being. We were just starting to really get back into the swing of things 😅.

All passes and memberships are on hold and if you are looking for online content there are some classes posted to our fb page.

Big hug to all. Thinking about you, our little community and small businesses that will be feeling it this week ❤️
