Yoga for every body. Build strength, flexibility and balance. We are a specialist yoga studio located in the heart of the Adelaide Hills.
Unfold Yoga + Wellbeing was established in Mount Barker by Loretta Voivodich in 2012. Loretta has been teaching yoga in the Adelaide Hills for over 15 years and built up a firm following of students who have felt the real difference yoga can make to their physical and mental wellbeing. Unfold offers a full weekly program with yoga classes suitable for all students, from the absolute beginner, to the progressive, advanced practitioner. Yoga practice cultivates a healthy body and a calmer mind. Attending classes at our studio you will better understand what you are doing when you practice and why we practice. Learn the art, science, and philosophy of yoga with a teacher! With our team of certified Iyengar teachers you can be sure you will receive quality, expertise, and individualised attention. Teachers at Unfold are caring and professional and have many years of practice, study, and dedicated training behind them. Classes explore the sequencing and technique of Asana (posture) and Pranayama (breath work) to integrate strength and flexibility, moderate the breath, and cultivate steadiness of the body, mind, and spirit. We use props to: explore the various aspects of a posture; to give assistance in the case of injuries or other conditions; and for restorative work. We make individual adjustments and corrections to help students understand and develop their yoga practice. Philosophy and approach are integral to classes and the atmosphere and instruction offer a respectful silence, seriousness, and focused energy, as well as the joy of being in the moment, which brings spontaneity, heightened awareness and a humble and honest approach to your practice. The Iyengar teaching method is oriented towards gradual but steady progress, rather than towards quick and fleeting results. Each Iyengar yoga class is a unique sequence created to guide students through a safe and systematic progression. Through skilled instruction and practice, students learn to penetrate beyond the physical body to the inner kosas (layers) of mind, energy, and spirit thereby gaining vitality, clarity, and calm through the practice. Iyengar yoga can be practiced at all stages of life. The benefits are far-reaching and will assist the practitioner in every aspect of daily living. Our studio is a special place that exudes a sense of calm, joyfulness, hard work, and transformation. It is spacious with natural light, good ventilation and elevated views. The yoga studio is carpeted and adequately temperature controlled for both the winter and summer months. All yoga equipment (including mats) is supplied and parking is available on the adjacent streets.

Firstly, it’s not about Yoga may be unknown to you. Except it stems from the Sages observation of nature; natural aspects of being, geometry, nature itself.

This week I felt exhilarated by the expansive nature of Summer, the 12 K walk I’d just completed at Deep Creek and my upcoming journey, to trek The Overland in Tassie, in one week’s time.
Here’s the thing; It had always been a dream in the pipeline to do hiking-sleeping-carrying my gear, so when an opportunity arose softly through the breezes (being my supportive new hiking buddies) and a Golden ticket to the trail, I decided to take the opportunity. I thought, this being my 60th navigation around the sun, why not now.
So, a little crazy possibly, but maybe not, as I felt mostly encouraged by something deep within and my long time practice of yoga.
My hiking buddies have also put faith in me. They are practical, high spirited, sound of mind and positive. I’m feeling a mixture of courage and caution, which is exactly what Mr Iyengar has said of practicing yoga.
This philosophy promotes a deep, intelligent approach to yoga, where precision and awareness build strength and confidence, allowing for progress without recklessness.
B.K.S. Iyengar’s quote about courage and caution emphasizes balancing boldness with care, often expressed as, “Every day you must walk that fine line between courage and caution,” a principle he applied to yoga to encourage growth while preventing injury, urging students to be “cautiously bold” and seek alignment in all aspects of life, not just physical postures.
Whilst is away, will come to teach at the studio.
Bernie will be taking a 5-day Yoga Kickstart course nice and early 6:30-7:30am daily between Monday 19th to Friday 23rd January.

Practice is engaging, dynamic, and cultivates stillness of mind, also alignment through presence of awareness. This method has particularly serviced the community by making yoga accessible to all age groups and gender, with the assistance of props to maximise health benefits.
