✨ Dance of the Deities: The Wisdom Dance of Ganesha ✨

What if the obstacle in your way, was actually the teacher?

Ganesha, the beloved remover of obstacles, doesn’t just clear the path. He is the wisdom of the path. And we’re inviting you to meet him through story, movement, and the kind of magic that moves beyond the mind and into the body.

This is not your typical workshop.

Led by the extraordinary Andrew Mournehis — former choreographer for Tina Turner, transpersonal counsellor, and one of the most heart-filled yoga teachers we know — Dance of the Deities weaves together ancient mythology, sacred mudras, gentle asana, and a specially choreographed dance sequence, all carried by divinely inspired music and potent mantras set to contemporary rhythms.

You’ll learn the story. You’ll learn the movements. And you’ll leave with the wisdom that quietly settled in.

No dance experience or yoga knowledge required, only a willingness to show up and a curiosity for what might unfold

“Prepare not only to move… but to be moved.”

🗓 Saturday, 18th April 2026
🕕 6:00 pm (2 hours)
📍 Stretch Yoga, Brisbane

Spaces are limited — book via the link in our bio ✨

And if this speaks to you, Andrew is also leading our Divine Awakening 50hr Postgraduate Training in October, a five-day immersion into the mythology, magic, and living energies that flow beneath the practice. Link in bio for details.

✨ Get the low down on how to slow down ✨

Truth be told? I hated my first Yin class.

How dare the teacher leave me alone with my thoughts!?
How on earth was I supposed to stay still with my million-mile-an-hour mind and slightly agitated body!?

Fast forward to now… Yin? How delicious. Restorative? Oh yes, please!

If you’re not yet a seasoned Yin-ster and you’d like to not to only survive, but actually thrive in your next slow class, swipe through to see three techniques that might just help get your there >>>

Yin and Restorative aren’t about doing ‘nothing’ well. They’re about building your capacity to be with yourself, sensations, thoughts, restlessness, it all.

And sometimes that takes practice.

If you’ve tried one slow class and thought “never again”… maybe instead of a “no”, it was just “new”?

Slow can feel confronting before it feels nourishing.
And when it does start to feel nourishing? You’ll be begging for more!

Know someone who might be struggling to slow down, be sure to send this their way 😊

✨ Backbend Bliss: A Heart-Opening Workshop ✨

Backbending can feel energising, confidence-building and deeply expansive, but it can also feel vulnerable, confronting, and unfamiliar.

Opening the front body asks us to move into spaces we don’t often visit. It can stir tenderness through the chest and throat, challenge our sense of control, and bring up hesitation or self-doubt. For some, it feels exposed rather
than empowered, uncertain rather than uplifted.

And that’s not a flaw in the pose, it’s part of the practice.

Join Laura for a joyful and empowering journey into the art of backbending, a practice that doesn’t just mobilise the spine but awakens the chest, softens the front body, and invites a deeper sense of openness and vitality.

Backbends are physical and emotional: they stretch areas that store stress, invite fresh breath into the heart space, and remind us what it feels like to meet life with courage and curiosity.

🗓 Sunday, April 12th, 2026
🕚 11:00 am (90 min)
📍 Stretch Yoga

Through intentional, progressive sequencing and supportive props, you’ll learn how to safely open your body with strength and integrity, explore variations that meet you where you are, and cultivate ease as you expand.

This workshop honours your practice, whether you’re just beginning to explore backbends or you’ve been curious about them for a while.

You’ll leave feeling more spacious in your body, clearer in your breath, and a little lighter in your heart

👉 Open to all levels, come as you are and discover your own version of backbend bliss.

✨ Divine Awakening: From Sacred Story to Embodied Practice ✨

A new 50hr Postgraduate Training is here.
With Andrew Mournehis
16–18 & 24–25 October 2026

There is a current in yoga that flows through story, devotion, and the living energies of the gods.

Not as distant figures from another time, but archetypal forces that continue to move through practice, breath, and body.

Ganesha at the threshold of new beginnings.
Kali in the fire of transformation.
Shiva in the stillness at the centre of the storm.
Lakshmi in the quiet grace that softens the heart.

This immersive five-day journey invites you into the mythology and magic that lives underneath the practice, exploring yoga’s sacred stories and deities not as distant figures, but as living energies that resonate through the body and soul.

Together we’ll explore:
• The living mythology of yoga
• Energetic embodiment and archetypal sequencing
• Mantra, sound, and sacred voice
• Storytelling with integrity and depth
• Translating ancient wisdom into modern teaching

You’ll leave with practical tools and the confidence to weave myth and divine embodiment into your classes, workshops, and personal practice in ways that feel authentic, alive, and accessible.

Open to teachers and dedicated practitioners alike.
No prior experience required, only a curious heart.

The myths are not relics of the past.
They are invitations.
And perhaps this one is yours…

What makes a yoga pose “advanced”?

Is it flexibility?
Strength?
Balance?

Or is it awareness?

In yoga, the most “advanced” practice is the one where you are fully present. Where you can feel your breath. Notice your edges. Soften where you can. Stay where it’s honest.

Sometimes that’s handstand.
Sometimes that’s lying on your back, breathing.

Tell us, what feels most challenging for you right now in your practice? 👇

🤍 Mini & Me Postnatal Yoga 🤍

Those early months are beautiful… and big.
Tender, tiring, joyful, overwhelming, all at once.

Our Mini & Me classes are a gentle space to land in the thick of it all.

Each Thursday morning we gather for 45 minutes of postnatal-friendly yoga, or whatever we can achieve between feeds, cuddles, nappy changes and little noises from the mat beside you, followed by 15 minutes of connection time with tea and other new parents who just get it.

There’s no pressure to “do it all.”
No expectation that your baby will sleep.
No need to have it together.

Just space to:
• Open tight shoulders and hips from feeding and carrying
• Rebuild strength and support pelvic floor recovery
• Practise mindful breathwork to steady fluctuating hormones
• Gently realign posture and reconnect with your core
• Bond with your baby through touch, play and shared presence

You’re welcome to feed, change, rock, settle, or simply sit and breathe. Some weeks there are giggles, some weeks there are tears, most weeks there are both.

After class, we stay for tea and conversation, building a little village of support on Brisbane’s southside.

Thursdays | 10:45 – 11:45am
Stretch Yoga, Holland Park

Suitable for bubs up until they’re actively on the move.
Join anytime, no need to wait for a new term.

Come as you are. Bring your baby as they are.
We’ll meet you both right where you’re at. 🤍

Embodied Peace: Somatic Yin Yoga & Sound Medicine
with Jen Valdes

🗓 Saturday, March 21st 2026
⏰ 1.00 pm, 120 mins
📍 Stretch Yoga

What if, for just two hours, you didn’t need to hold it all together?

This is an experience designed for the nervous system, a slow, sensory sanctuary where your body is gently guided out of doing mode and into deep rest.

You’ll begin with mindful, somatic movement, subtle, intuitive, and grounding, helping your body remember what safety and ease actually feel like. From there, you’ll melt into long-held, prop-supported Yin shapes, where effort softens, gravity takes over, and you’re invited to fully surrender. Optional gentle touch offers an added layer of support, like being quietly held.

As stillness deepens, sound medicine weaves through the space. Singing bowls and healing instruments create resonant waves that travel through the body, settling the mind, soothing the nervous system, and inviting a sense of embodied peace that lingers long after you leave.

This workshop is for you if:
• You feel overstimulated, overwhelmed, or burnt out
• Your nervous system needs a reset
• You love Yin, sound healing, or slow, intentional movement
• You’re craving rest that actually feels restorative
• You want to feel calm, grounded, and at home in your body again

No yoga experience needed. All bodies, all levels, warmly welcome.

✨ This is your invitation to embrace the slow.
✨ To soften, settle, and deeply restore.

Spaces are limited.

Yoga isn’t one path.

It’s many doorways into the same room.

The tradition recognises that we each move through life differently, and so we practise differently too. Some of us understand the world through thinking. Some through doing. Some through feeling. Others through watching.

These are known as the Four Paths of Yoga:

✨ Jñāna Yoga – the Thinkers
The path of inquiry and discernment. Asking “What is true?” and loosening our attachment to the stories of the mind.

🔥 Karma Yoga – the Doers
The path of conscious action. Living yoga through service, responsibility, and showing up fully without attachment to outcomes.

💛 Bhakti Yoga – the Feelers
The path of devotion and relationship. Letting love, reverence, and connection soften the heart and guide the way.

👁 Rāja Yoga – the Observers
The path of meditation and awareness. Learning to watch the mind rather than be caught inside it, cultivating the witness.

While we’ll naturally move towards one path, most of us don’t live in only one path.

They overlap, support, and inform one another.

At different stages of life, or even different moments in the day, we may move between them. Often, one feels like home, while the others quietly shape our practice in the background.

💭 Are you more of a thinker, a doer, a feeler… or a watcher? And how is that reflected in your practice today?

Connect to Your Source: Restorative Yoga & Meditation
with Rocio Marte

After a reinvigorating journey home, we’re delighted to welcome Rocio back to Stretch, carrying the richness, warmth, and quiet wisdom that comes from returning to one’s roots.

As summer softens into autumn, the season invites us to slow, to turn inward, and to listen more closely. This is a time of shedding excess and reconnecting with what truly sustains us, a gentle return to source.

What if rest wasn’t an escape, but a way home?

This two-hour Restorative Yoga and Meditation workshop offers a spacious invitation into the deeper, quieter layers of practice. Through fully supported restorative postures and an integrative exploration of Yoga Nidra, Rocio will guide you beyond the outer shapes and into the inner architecture of rest, weaving together physiology, the dreaming mind, liminal states, intention, and the subtle creative intelligence beneath language.

No previous experience is needed. All levels are warmly welcome.

Come just as you are. Leave feeling softer, clearer, and more deeply connected to your source.
