MONTHLY COMMUNITY CLASSES!!
We are so excited to bring you a gentle Pilates and stretch class face to face on the Gold Coast!

These classes are open to everyone regardless of whether you’re a beginner or experienced Pilates enthusiast. Deaf, HH, Codas and Auslan students all welcome!

Karla and Emma are qualified Pilates teachers, Codas and together cater for a variety of needs so you feel comfortable, confident and capable.

This will be held at the Gecko Hall which overlooks the beautiful Currumbin Creek. Afterwards we will have a cuppa and chat at the local cafe!

We’re excited to be adding these dates once a month and on an alternate week from yoga classes held once a month too at Currumbin. It will be a great opportunity to continue prioritising your wellbeing, connecting with others and social time afterwards in the sunshine - everything a healthy nervous system needs!

Our first class will be Saturday 11/1 at 8am - class will roughly be 1 hour then cafe afterwards.

To book your spot please message us or email auslanmindbody@gmail.com

$20 a class - BYO mat and towel!

Hope to see you there! 💚

Receiving this feedback was one of the highlights of our year - because this is what our social and wellbeing programs are all about! It’s great to see community members feeling confident to continue practicing wellbeing in their local community.

So much of the feedback we receive from Deaf participants is that they want to go to a local community class (with hearing people and teacher) but it’s too hard to book an interpreter and/or it’s hard to follow the teacher and receive instructions.

Through our programs we offer full translation of Pilates and yoga concepts in Auslan - so that participants can safely and confidently practice at home or in their local community!

Some example of the PAH moments we receive
‘ I never knew how to breathe properly till you showed me in full Auslan’
‘Now I know how to engage my core and pelvic floor’
‘Now I know how to protect my neck’
‘I feel confident know what to do now and what the hearing teacher means’
‘ I look forward to try a local class now’

This is at the heart of WHY we do what we do. And we cannot wait to do more of this in 2025!

Gratitude and love

Special words from one of our recent wellbeing program participants.

What we love about this feedback is that it’s not just about what we’ve created as program facilitators - but what we created as a group of women.

Coming together as a group for the first time - meeting old and new faces and being in such a small community takes courage.

Seeing the transformation from day one where we were all feel nervous, shy, unsure what’s to come then to slowly opening up.

Developing trust doesn’t happen instantly. So we respect this process takes time, quicker for some, slower for others - however one thing we have noticed by the end of the weekend at all of our group wellbeing programs is that all of our women’s hearts have opened up so beautifully. This shows through our laughter, deep conversations, happy tears and appreciation for each other. It’s really inspiring to see... and it is at the heart of why we do what we do ☺️

The first half of next year’s wellbeing programs are almost sold out.

Please join our mailing list here as we are soon announcing our August 2025 program in Sunshine Coast!

Incredible photos taken from participants and ourselves at our retreat last weekend in Hunter Valley

The weather was just right. The Autumn leaves falling down, the sun shining between the clouds, crisp cool air, colourful sunrise and sunset and only having rain towards the end of retreat. (We were so lucky as it was meant to rain the whole time)

We are so grateful again for the incredible feedback - 14 women from different states, meeting old and new faces and becoming close, connected and grounded as a group by the end of the retreat. A space to immerse in Yoga, Pilates, Mental health, Art, social connectedness and group work…but most importantly - in Auslan!!!

A lot of women who haven’t done a retreat before and now can’t wait for the next one!

We will be sharing more in reel video soon including snippets from our amazing caterers

To be informed of our 2025 retreats please join our mailing list via the link in our bio. These retreats do sell out quick so be sure to sign up to be the first to know!

With love and gratitude
