What an amazing year it has been. In the studio, we hosted our first Full-Time Teacher Training, which was a huge success, and we had a strong presence at the inaugural Lovefest Sutherland Shire. We’re excited to be part of Lovefest again this New Year—details are below.

We’ve continued to share world-class teachings of yoga, well beyond the realm of asana, and this is something we truly pride ourselves on. Thank you for being part of the Bhav community—we appreciate you so much.

As we move into Christmas and the New Year period, our schedule will be slightly reduced. Please see the adjusted timetable below.

Dissolve the boundaries between your inner and outer world.

You, me, we all vary in density through the layers of our body, vibration, emotions, energy and consciousness.

In order to navigate the layers…..

There is no shortcuts, no bypassing in any way and if you find yourself trapped in the superficial layer, the most dense, then their is no way of progressing to pe*****te into what becomes more and more subtle, towards source.

Towards your unique brilliance.

Swadhisthana — The Sacral Chakra
Located in the lower abdomen, this chakra is the seat of emotions, creativity, and sensuality. Associated with the water element, it governs the energy of connection, cohesion, and flow.

It’s said to have six nadis radiating at 60° angles—just like a snowflake—symbolising beauty in emotional and energetic symmetry.

🔸 When balanced, we express ourselves creatively, feel deeply without overwhelm, and enjoy healthy intimacy.
🔸 When overactive, it can show up as mood swings, addiction to pleasure, and emotional intensity.
🔸 When underactive, we may feel numb, creatively blocked, or disconnected from joy and others.

How to balance it?
→ Hip-opening and fluid yoga practices
→ Gentle breathwork (like Sama Vritti or Nadi Shodhana)
→ Clear, heartfelt intentions around intimacy, joy, or creativity
→ And for the advanced: Vajroli Mudra — a subtle pelvic floor technique that helps master and uplift sexual energy for vitality and higher awareness.

Let your energy flow without flooding, create from depth, and feel from your centre. 🌀

Bhāv (भाव) in Sanskrit is a powerful and multilayered word. Its meaning shifts depending on the context, but at its core it points to a state of being.

1. Feeling / Emotion

Bhāv refers to the inner feeling-state that arises from the heart or consciousness. In yoga, devotion, and mantra, your bhāv is the quality of energy you bring to the practice.

2. Mood / Atmosphere

It can also describe the mood or atmosphere of a space. A room, class, or chant circle can have a particular bhāv.

3. State of Being / Existence

More philosophically, bhāv means beingness — the underlying state of one’s mind, heart, and awareness. It’s about how you’re being, not just what you’re doing.

4. Spiritual Attitude / Devotional Feeling

In Bhakti Yoga, bhāv is the devotional attitude — the feeling-tone of your relationship to the Divine. It’s the emotional essence behind the practice.

Bhāv = the feeling, the mood, the state of being, and the energetic quality you embody.

Our tagline of “A Spiritual Practice” is an invitation to come and feel safe while you explore your inner world. Discover who you truly are and what you’re capable of.

The Root Chakra (Muladhara) sits at the base of the spine and is the foundation of your entire energetic system. Linked to the colour red and the earth element, it governs your sense of safety, stability, and your ability to function in the physical world.

When Muladhara is strong, you feel grounded, secure, and present. Your energy is steady, your basic needs feel supported, and you move through life with confidence and clarity.

When it’s weak or imbalanced, everything feels shaky. Anxiety rises, motivation drops, and you may feel disconnected from your body—tired, ungrounded, or unsure of your next step.

Balancing the root chakra brings you back into your body and back into your life.
Moon/Mind-style practices, gentle activation of Mula Bandha at the end of the exhale, and reconnecting with nature—barefoot walking, gardening, or simply sitting on the earth—strengthen this foundational centre.

Muladhara is your energetic anchor.
Strengthen it, and you strengthen everything else.

———

ROOT CHAKRA 🌑❤️ (Muladhara)

We’d love you to join us for our final gathering of the year as we come together to celebrate the Summer Solstice — the longest, brightest day of the year and a powerful moment to honour the light within and around us.

We’ll begin with 108 rounds of the Gayatri Mantra, offering our collective intention, gratitude and devotion to the solar force that sustains life and inspires clarity, courage, and renewal. After we will merge into Kirtan, lift the energy even higher as we chant, sing, and open the heart together.

Afterwards, we’ll ground the practice in true community spirit with food by the people — a shared feast created by everyone who joins. Your entry is simple:

Bring your best self… your joy, your fun, your presence… and a plate of food to share.

Let’s close the year in celebration, connection, and light — Bhav style.
We’d love to have you with us.

There is lots of stuff we buy….

And then there are those investments that change us.
Gift yourself that thing that truly creates change for a life you desire!
Declare for yourself a decision that brings your vision to life.
Decide to invest in yourself and or the gift to serve others the opportunity to achieve and believe.

Surrounded in discipline, influenced, supported by community, one that you show up for and others show up for you.
And the devotion from your heart to gift life long evolving gifts to yourself or to that person you love

This is the Gift of giving and one that will not become just stuff but a pathway for joy, growth and love.

What an incredible journey we’ve just taken together exploring the Eight Limbs of Yoga. Every time we move through these teachings, I’m reminded how much wisdom is revealed—not just for the students, but for me as well. Yoga philosophy and practice always have another layer waiting to be discovered.

For the next seven weeks, we’ll be diving into the Chakras—a journey that has consistently brought profound insight, clarity, and self-understanding to so many students over the years. Every round of this series is transformative in its own way.

To support this experience, I’ve created a high-value pass for anyone who isn’t currently a Bhav member but wants to join us for the full seven-week journey. The earlier you jump on, the more value you receive, as this pass will expire on Sunday, January 18.

Come be part of this exploration into the chakras—and into yourself.

Join us at Bhav. See you on the mat. 💛

Grab it in the bio. 🙏🏽

A YIN EXPERIENCE — Unravel the Layers

Yin Yoga gives us what the rest of life rarely does:
time, space, stillness… and the chance to unravel what lies beneath the surface.

In this 3-hour Yin Experience, you’ll explore who you are through the lens of the Koshas — the five layers of being described in the Taittirīya Upanishad, one of the ancient texts of the Vedantic tradition.

These teachings describe the human experience as five concentric sheaths:
✨ Annamaya — the physical body
✨ Pranamaya — the energy body
✨ Manomaya — the mental/emotional body
✨ Vijnanamaya — the intuitive/wisdom body
✨ Anandamaya — the bliss body, your innermost essence

You’ll receive 90 minutes of teaching to understand these layers, followed by 90 minutes of deep Yin to feel them.

Yin becomes the vehicle — a slow, surrendered path inward.
As the body softens and the breath steadies, the subtler layers reveal themselves.
This is where clarity emerges.
This is where healing happens.
This is where you meet the truth of who you really are.

This experience is the perfect introduction for anyone considering our upcoming Yin Yoga Teacher Training, or for practitioners wanting depth, energetic understanding, and self-inquiry woven into their practice.

If you’re ready to slow down, explore inward, and reconnect with something real — this one’s for you.
