Kia ora I’m Freya! My yoga journey began in 2018 as a means to complement my goals in fitness. I began to really lean into my personal practice through 2020 where I made the leap to complete my 200-hour training. Since then, I have expanded my practice to maximise the benefits that yoga offers, aiding me in achieving goals not only on but also off the mat, including ultra marathons and strength training. Whilst my initial attraction to yoga was rooted in its physical benefits, following my teacher training I soon discovered the impact it had on my personal growth. Having found a way to cultivate a deeper understanding of what it means to be mindful, self aware and experiencing bliss Outside of classes you will find me playing with balancing on my hands, running the local trails and spending time moving my body in any way possible. I look forward to seeing you on the mat.

Description

Open level - beginner to experienced.

Our most accessible class, yin yoga is a practice of stillness.
Using props such as blocks, blankets and a bolster to support the body, we hold each pose for between five to ten minutes.
Yin targets the fascia/connective tissues that permeate our entire body, to create mobility, and invoke a meditative sensation for the mind.
