Yoga and Breath-work Classes

Service Description

Offering; Gentle yet purposeful yogic somatic moving meditation thats like medicine for the soul. Suitable for all levels. This is an inclusive hub for all walks of life and all are supported by your experienced facilitator. Synchronising asana; carefully curated yoga sequences, with pranayama; traditional breathing techniques. Here we tone our vagus nerve function and balance our cortisol (stress hormone) production to help heal dis-ease in our nervous system, body, mind, soul and heart and gut space. A beautiful blend of prana (life energy force) and apana practice for us to experience and drop into homeostasis. When we are in alignment, we tend to perceive ourselves and the world through a more grounded, honest lens and life feels less of a struggle as we are more at ease. Kundalini dualistic alignment is threaded though-out drawing upon Shakti (creation) with Shiva (stillness/ steadiness). Like, Hatha (sun- moon). Akin to Yin Yang (dark-light). The aim of these classes are to connect you to the most authentic version of yourself using ancient yogi wisdom combined with mental health science. These classes also include a touch of mindful traditional mantra as well as a guided meditation designed to set you up for success in your sankalpa (solid goal). Novices (even yoga curious beginner's) to seasoned yogi's / guru's and every one in between are all welcome and supported here in this safe space. Great for people who work out/ surf and feel tight, as well as people working seated all day and feel stiff, or for people who are sedentary and feel sluggish. These are the counter poses and is the antidote to stretch it all out. Slow, steady and purposeful we go... this way its long lasting and sustainable. Mats, props, mellow tunes, essential oils and ambience all provided in the humble and aesthetic Oja Yoga studio, aptly nicknamed the 'Tallowood Temple'. Classes are $20 per session or you can grab yourself a bulk deal.
