Our Classes

After a longer than planned break I am going to resume teaching classes very soon, May 13 2024 🙂 !

There will be 3 classes a week to start:

Monday 5:30 – 6:45

Tuesday 7 – 8:15 am & 9 – 10:15 am

The evening classes will be of a more restorative nature, helping you relax, release tension and be ready for a restful sleep. The mornings ones, designed to help you feel energised and ready to enjoy a great day.

I like to help people move and breathe well, becoming aware of where they are gripping or bracing, holding their breath … let that go, so they can move in an responsive, easeful confident way. Gaining strength and balance from that place of ease.

If you have any questions about the classes, please contact me.

TEACHER

I started a consistent and focused practice here in Wanaka in 2002 under the talented teacher and practitioner, Swenja Stellfield. My classes are a blend of past learnings and yoga traditions and continued study. I’ve trained with Iyengar teacher Glenn Ceresoli in Byron Bay, Australia, and Goa, India, and completed a 300 hour, advanced teacher training with Noah Maze, a Hatha practitioner and a devoted and inspiring teacher of teachers.  My interest is moving to the more therapeutic side of yoga, helping people be at ease in their bodies, building strength and mobility around good functional movement. Such a beneficial practice in empowering people to develop the tools to recover from injuries, chronic pain, anxiety and depression.  I am studying Yoga Therapy, with Susi Hately from Functional Synergy in Calgary, Canada. A quote from Susi, “The body is a barometer of the mind.”
