Tigress® Yoga is for women 🐅

No matter her age
No matter what part of her cycle she's at
No matter her skill set
No matter if she's brand new to embodiment or a facilitator herself...
No matter how "wild" (or not) she lets herself be

Tigress® Yoga meets you exactly where you ARE

And within this somatic female embodiment practice, you get to meet yourSelf there ~ ongoingly.

This is your opportunity to move in a way that is entirely designed for & honours your womanly nature (body - mind - spirit)

Feeling relaxed & spacious & centred is just the surface of what's possible...

In our upcoming 6 week series, you will get to deepen into the layers of You✨️️

Each week carving out the time and space just for YOU / your WELLBEING.

Each week is strengthening your Heart-Womb bridge to inhabit this place of inner knowing

Each week exploring your voice with raw/unfiltered expression

Each week awakening your primal instincts more and more 🐾

Each week uncovering your innate sensual energies within your womanly vessel

Each week moving within the same circle of women (creating safety, trust, sisterhood)

Each week opening yourself up to a new way of Being ~ Integrating these expressions into your daily life 🪽

Our 6 week series is the ideal container for you to experience these shifts ongoingly and integrate into your daily life.

We start this Thursday, 24th of July at 5:45pm

A Tigress walks with confidence in her stride
Her instincts On
Awareness widened
Alert, but not afraid
Present to what is right here

A Tigress knows her strength and power
She will use if necessary, but has no need to flaunt or prove herself
Her mere primal presence is captivating enough and demonstrates her grace
She uses her voice and is not afraid to make her anger known

A Tigress knows when to rest and when to hunt
Action steps are purposeful
Rest is balanced and without guilt
She knows her place amongst the jungle and upholds the balance & harmony within and around her

Join us in this circle of Tigresses as we explore all of these textures in your womanly body ~

Meet your own wildness, tender & soft self, and awaken your innate creative/sensual energy in this dynamic moving women’s circle ~ learn to take up SPACE inside and let your body express herself beyond words

🐅Tigress® Path Mini Workshop - July 12th (TOMORROW!) 2pm-4:30pm

07/07/2025

It is truly a gift to be able to feel so deeply

I didn't always see (or feel) it that way

'You're so sensitive'
Were words thrown at me like a curse or burden to bear

As if being able to feel the textures of not only myself but those around me was a bad thing..

Sometimes it was too much.

The little things start to add up until everything feels catastrophic
Exploding over micro annoyances
Or crying in disproportion to the circumstances

Most of us haven't actually been shown how to be with and move with our emotions.. it hasn't been role modeled or felt safe to

As a result, we swing hard on the pendulum between numb or total collapse

It isn't serving anyone - and it's exhausting

When I discovered Tigress® Yoga, I finally found a pathway to feel my feelings and allow my body let go of all the pent up emotions.. in a way that just makes sense as a woman (body-mind-spirit)

It goes deeper than anything my mind could attempt to convince myself as impactful- because it's entirely designed for our female body structure & psyche.

It's so much more than a "yoga" practice

It's a living, breathing, dynamic spiral of movement - breath - sounds to allow spaciousness from the unravelling that naturally occurs

Tigress® anchors us home in our heart &womb (body), clears the noise from deep inside (mind), and supports to bridge a Source aligned-Earth connection (spirit) from within.

It's a practice that allows us to really meet ourselves and learn how to take up space in our bodies ~ which ripples out into the rest of relationships & lives

I'm so grateful to be sharing this again with the Cairns community this Saturday 12th of July, at ~ Full details via comments/event page

We are offering a special bring a friend/sister for a half price! 💗

I look forward to meeting you in circle ⭕️

Are there certain emotions you feel more comfortable with than others?

We like to feel "good"
There's nothing wrong with that

Nobody wants to feel "bad"

But who decides what's "good" and "bad"?

Somewhere along the way, you did.

You were shown that joy, happiness, compassion, excitement, empathy, love
are welcomed and encouraged..
On an ‘acceptable level’ of expression

An unspoken expectation to strive towards as your baseline

But what of the others?
Your anger, grief, jealousy, anxiety, despair, frustration, rage, disgust

Were you shown the same level of acceptance and encouragement to feel these important emotions too?

Likely not
our society and familial upbringing have role modeled and micromanaged us to package it all up neat & tidy

intellectualizing them rather than allowing the full expression to come & go
Repressed with a masked smile that it's all okay
But is it really?

You can’t let yourself be messy.. or raw in the authenticity of what you're feeling

It makes others uncomfortable
And you've been *trained* to orient your actions for others to accept and love you, conditionally

and now it feels like too much for you to go there.

So you leave it. Avoid it. Let it fester in the cage you've subconsciously locked them away in -

And then you find yourself wondering why you feel off.
Like what in front of you is never enough

But here’s the thing:

When you cut yourself off, go numb or collapse into the overwhelm of those “not good” feelings,
You’re doing the same for the feelings you desire to be feeling too...

Woman, you know the saying - "the only way out is through".
Your emotions have something to show you ~ will you open that doorway to your innerworld?
---
Building a relationship with your Self happens from the inside out

It takes presence, patience, compassion

A consistent re-meeting of what it is you are feeling... the sensations, the emotions, the stories as they arise and go.

Let your curiosity lead the way ~ you may be surprised at what you uncover in the layers of you

My upcoming Tigress® Path mini workshop is designed for women to slow right down and begin this process ~

With Female Embodiment Yoga, specific movements for female anatomy and psyches

We gather in this dynamic women's circle to move, feel, and express with our unfiltered sound & breath as we all navigate this process of anchoring somatically inside and letting our feelings be felt (in a supportive, nourishing & professionally held container)

We gather on July 12th - 2pm

30/06/2025

We've been taught to think about our feelings instead of actually FEELING them ✨️

Hands up if you've been called
'too sensitive'
'too emotional'
Or that 'you think too much'

As women, we are innately designed to have big nurturing hearts, empathy as our baseline and to feel deeply. It's truly a gift 🙏

But that 'too much-ness' leaves an imprint

It distorts the truth of what is happening and we unconsciously & habitually start to close down, shut off, minimise the rawness in order not to ruffle feathers - make others uncomfortable - or as time goes on..

Because we don't feel safe in ourselves to feel what needs to be felt...

Grief
Anger
Sadness
Betrayal
Regret
Jealousy
Heartache

These emotions come with feelings & sensations that may not "feel good" in your body
Or, let's reframe - comfortable, familiar, safe

So what do you do?
Dismiss
Cut off from your body
Think about it - enough to avoid it or distract yourself

But just because you think 'I'm sad'
Doesn't mean it goes away. Resolved. Complete

No. Your emotions will await the opportunity to spring up and be felt. Often at inappropriate or in disproportion to what's actually happening



As a woman, here's what you can do to start to unravel that pattern:

- Start noticing your feelings as they happen. Acknowledge by placing a hand on your Heart or Womb, or wherever you feel it happening ~ almost like an internal nod to say 'I feel you'

- Breathe with your Heart or Womb, let out sighs and sounds with each exhale. Let it be real. Let it be honest. Keep repeating until you feel the shift

- Added layer: surround yourself with other woman who embody their feelings too. Let it become normal to be with the challenges, the rawness, the realness of being a deep feeling woman

All of this is available to explore in greater depth in my upcoming Tigress® Yoga miniworkshop ~

July 12th at Cairns
Bring a friend/sister/family for half off
This is how we make waves in the world: more women who dare to feel it all (&respond accordingly)

Tigress® Yoga is a devotional practice that creates momentum and true inner alignment for us to walk the Tigress® Path ~ embodying your version of Feminine Wholeness ⭕️

Held within a women's circle ~ we co-create a place of true feminine nourishment on many levels

Each week we deepen and spiral our way through the somatic pathways that foster nervous system replenishment

The women from our last series have been asking and here we are 🕊 with an added 15 mins extra time at the end to fully bask in the self-sourced oxytocin bath (it's so intoxicatingly delicious and deserves all the space to fully receive ✨️)

We start July 24th and meet weekly

Tigress has landed in Cairns! Last night was our very first gathering with a full circle of women 🐅

Each heard the call and have their own personal reasons for answering..

Lots of curiosity, desire for more connection to Self and their Femininity, a need for nourishment, the animal frequency, sisterhood and so much more..

These were just some of the reflections shared at the completion of our Tigress class:

"That was amazing!!"

"I love having a women's only space to really be able to explore these movements. What a perfect way to carry me into the rest of my night" - Beth

"I feel incredible!"

"I want to come back and try this again"

And some further reflections shared today:

"After the Tigress class, I felt so much lighter and could feel more energy flowing inside. I felt more myself. I enjoyed the sighing and sounding throughout the process and I had this sense of 'unburdening' as I experienced the Tigress practice." - Jacqui

“This was a beautiful class allowing me to unwind some very old stuck tightness following spinal surgery in my neck with a disc replacement C5/6 and hip bone fusion at C6/7 from 5 years ago. I don’t think I have felt as flowing and free in my whole body since before the surgery. I usually have some neural or muscle pain somewhere in my body since the surgery but I slept so peacefully after the class. Thank you Carlyn.” - Tania

It fills me to the absolute brim and beyond to hear how impactful this feminine embodiment practice has been for others.. especially as a woman who's journeyed with this personally for 5+ years

Once you know, you KNOW.

Spaces are filling up fast for our 6 week series!

We start Monday 24th - 6pm
Same time, same place
And the same group of women week to week 🙌

This is a transformation container & Tigress is the map to access that from within ✨️
