Yoga has been a part of my life for the last 10 years. It's a grounding practice, something I do that always makes me feel better. Over the years, I've been lucky enough to practise in incredible studios across New Zealand and around the world, learning from teachers who inspired me deeply and ultimately gave me the confidence to step into teaching myself. Earlier this year, I completed my 200-hour Yoga Teacher Training with InYoga Australia. Alongside yoga, I hold a degree in Exercise Science and have spent years working in the health and fitness industry, including teaching Reformer Pilates. Together, these experiences have shaped my belief that movement should support your life and leave you feeling better than when you started. For me, yoga is so much more than the physical practice. It has a way of flowing into the rest of your life too, inviting more of the good stuff. Presence, calm, kindness, self-compassion to name a few! Teaching yoga feels like a way to honour the teachers who've shaped me over the years and, hopefully, pass that feeling on to someone else. My classes are a space to move, breathe, and reconnect with yourself - leaving a little lighter than when you arrived.

Description

Gentle Vinyasa offers a slower, more mindful approach to the flowing style of Vinyasa Yoga. Through a mindful sequence of āsana (postures), we move in harmony with the breath and cultivate awareness in both body and mind.
Classes often include simple prāṇāyāma (breathing techniques) to support focus, presence, and nervous system balance. This class is ideal if you’re newer to yoga, returning after a break, or looking for a mellow, low-impact practice to support mobility, balance, and flexibility. We'll close with a deeply restful śavāsana, leaving you grounded, calm, and relaxed.
