Yoga doesn’t always look like what you think. It’s not all handstands, stretchy pants, and breathing like you’ve got it together. Sometimes, it’s just lying down on a mat and finally taking a breath. (Yes, we actually have a class for that.)

If you’re tired of being an adult, tired of pretending you’ve got your s**t together, you’re not alone. And you don’t have to do it all on your own.

We’re not just a yoga studio. We’re a community of real humans doing our best. Some days we move. Some days we rest. But every day, we show up for ourselves and for each other.

If you need a break, we’re here for you. Always.

If you’re finally sitting down for a cup of tea, but your mind is spiralling with “I should be doing something” or “this is not productive”
 Or if you finally stop for a moment, but your nervous system is still buzzing out of control
 That’s not rest. That’s just more pressure with your eyes closed.

You don’t need permission to rest.
You don’t need to earn it.
You don’t need a medical certificate or an empty to-do list.
Feeling tired is the reason.
That’s it.
That’s enough.

Your body and mind are the only authority you need when it comes to rest.
Not calendars.
Not fitness trackers.
Not societal noise that rewards burnout and calls it ambition.

Rest only begins when we drop the guilt.
Because the nervous system doesn’t soften in a state of shame or self-judgment. It stays alert, tense, and braced for more.

This is why, at our studio, rest is sacred.
It’s welcomed.
Encouraged.
Celebrated.
Come to lie down.
Come to move gently.
Come just to breathe and be.

No expectations. No performance.
Just space to listen to what your body already knows.

You are allowed to rest when you are tired.

We’ll be here when you’re ready.
No pressure.
No guilt.
Just real life yoga for real life people.

Want to know what’s going on in my brain?

It’s a delicate and fine balance of
 thinking about yoga and also thinking about yoga.

Call it obsession. Call it passion. Call it a side effect of doing too many downward dogs.

But honestly, can you blame me?

Yoga helps me breathe when life feels tight.
It helps me move when everything feels stuck.
It helps me reconnect when my mind is running a million miles an hour.

And sometimes, it just helps me get through the day with a bit more grace and a lot less swearing.

So yes, I’m probably thinking about yoga. If you ever catch me staring off into space, there’s a good chance I’m thinking about a yoga sequence or reflecting on how yoga really helps people feel more at ease in their mind, body and life.

And yes, I’d love to see you on the mat, where I will almost definitely talk too much about the benefits of yoga.

And quick reminder, if you’re coming more than once a week (or plan to), our unlimited weekly membership is the most cost effective option and a great way to keep you motivated and your practice consistent.

Think of it as your official permission slip to keep doing the thing that makes you feel better, while listening to me talk about the nervous system more than strictly necessary.

Our studios are not
 just saying đŸ€Ș

You know it’s a Brisbane winter when it feels colder inside your house than it does outside. No matter how many blankets or heaters you pile on, you still can’t quite shake the chill.

It’s so tempting to retreat. To cancel plans. To stay inside and avoid the world. We get stuck in the cold.

But when we stop moving, stop connecting, and spend too much time in our own heads, things can start to shift, and not in a good way.

We feel more tired. More foggy. More isolated. More depressed. That sense of being cut off from others can weigh heavily on our mental health.

We feel stiffer in our bodies. Flatter in our mood.
Pain creeps into our stiff joints. Everything feels just a little bit harder.

Coming to class during winter isn’t about willpower or discipline. It’s about gently interrupting that spiral.

It’s about stepping into a space that’s warm, not just in temperature but in feeling and community.

Sometimes, it’s the quiet pause before class begins that calms the noise in your mind.

Or the smile from someone you know that warms your heart.

Or the shared breath in a room full of kind, familiar faces that softens something tight inside you.

These moments ground us. They reconnect us to our bodies, to our breath, to a sense of belonging.
And they do more for your mental and emotional health than you might think.

Our studios are warm and toasty, and when the rest of the world feels cold and blustery and grey, this can be your steady place. A space to feel held, to feel human again.

And if you’re coming more than once a week, a membership is the most cost-effective way to support your practice and to keep showing up for yourself, even when it’s cold outside.

Come warm your heart and body with us. We’ll be here when you’re ready.

Just out here combining my two great passions: Yoga and writing wildly mediocre poetry.
Is it life-changing? Absolutely not.
Will it make you smile? Hopefully.
Will I regret posting this? Almost definitely.

A little reminder that not everything has to be serious, perfect, or profound to be shared.
Sometimes it just has to rhyme.
You’re welcome.

I hope this makes you smile 😊

Here’s the truth. I don’t practice yoga every day, and you don’t need to either.

You don’t need to do yoga every single day to feel the benefits.

Life is full. Work is demanding. Kids get sick. Sleep gets interrupted. Motivation comes and goes. And the whole “yoga every damn day” message can start to feel like just another thing you’re not doing well enough.

But yoga isn’t meant to be another pressure. It’s not here to make you feel guilty.

It’s here to support you. To help you breathe again when the week feels too heavy. To give you space to reset when you’re overwhelmed. To move your body in a way that feels good and helps you feel more like yourself again.

There are no medals for the person who comes the most. No gold stars for pushing through exhaustion.

And just so you know, your teachers aren’t secretly whispering, “wow, Jane came every single day last week, she’s amazing.” That’s just not how we think.
We’re more likely to be proud of you for listening to your body. For showing up when you could. For knowing when to rest.

Some weeks that might look like two or three classes. Some weeks it might be less.And that’s okay. Really.

What your body needs will change from day to day too. If you’ve got energy to burn, Vinyasa can help you shake it off. If you want something slow and mindful, Slow Flow might be the sweet spot.
If you’re craving rest or stillness, Yin or Restorative can hold you in the quiet.

Every practice doesn’t have to be big. Every class doesn’t have to be strong.

We know how much you’re juggling. We see how hard you’re trying. And we’re here to make things just a little bit easier.

Whenever you’re ready, there’s a mat waiting for you.

Because it’s more than just a place to stretch or move.

Imagine if you treated your yoga mat like a doorway,
not to flexibility or fitness,
but to a place where life slows down
and you remember who you are beneath the noise.

Not a task.
Not a performance.
Not a project to improve.

Just a return.
To yourself.
To your breath.
To calm.
To compassion.
To a quiet kind of self-love that asks nothing of you but your presence.

That’s why it feels like home.
Because each time you step onto your mat,
you’re not stepping into a workout,
you’re stepping back into yourself.

We don’t practice to escape life.
We practice to feel it again with softness, with presence, with a bit more kindness.

That’s what we’re here for.
That’s what this space is.

See you soon?

Come practice with us this week. Classes in both studios 7 days a week. No pressure. Just presence.
