**BIRTH SKILLS - 1-DAY WORKSHOP FOR EXPECTANT PARENTS**
Birth Skills is starting to fill up for the year, so we encourage you to get in and book your spot. We recommend attending around the halfway mark of your pregnancy, to make the most of opportunities to integrate your newly learned skills.

This year, we've decided to keep the bonus online Ultimate Birth Mastery program as our free gift to all attendees. We truly believe that this is of such worth, that you should just have it. :-)

YOGA CLASS UPDATE: As we settle in to 2024, we've made a couple of adjustments to our schedule, thanks to your feedback. Please be aware that most classes are filling up, so bookings are essential please and thank you!

☀Firstly, Rise + Shine has now been upgraded to Rise + Shine Flexi and now starts at 6.30am. This means you have the option to power through and end class at the 45 min mark, finishing off in an upright shape OR continue on for an extra 15 mins as we come down to the floor for a slower and more restful end to our practice. The choice is entirely yours.

🌿Calm is now a blended class running on Thursdays at 6.00pm. This means we welcome every body and every level, including those who are pregnant or postpartum. We finish with a sound bath and the wonderful Jess is your guide.

😍Glow & Flow is still glowin' and flowin' every Tuesday at 9.30am. Get your glow on - such a luscious class for all.

🤰Wednesday 6.00pm is our dedicated Pregnancy Yoga class with 75 minutes to optimise your baby's position, stretch, release and strengthen your body. KeiShana is your experienced guide for this one.

🤱Mums+Bubs continues to run on Wednesday and Thursday mornings. We have 60 minutes for yoga and time afterwards to connect with one another.

We LOVE LOVE LOVE seeing your faces at yoga, thank you all so much for joining us every week.

Just a wee gift to say THANK YOU for getting up and joining us for Rise + Shine next week - a free coffee from the amazing Soulful Coffee! If you love starting your day with early morning movement (and coffee!), book yourself into one of our Rise + Shine Flexi classes - Wednesday and Friday 6.30am. With our Flexi class you choose whether you power through for 45 mins and then head off for your day, or stay for an extra 15 mins and come to the floor for a slower, restful shape to end your practice.

☀Flexi time options
☀Rise for the day with the sun
☀Free coffee to say thank you!

MEET THE TEAM: Jess teaches our Mums+Bubs, Pregnancy Yoga, and now, our Rise+Shine (for every body) class!

Here's 5 things you probably didn't know about Jess:
1. Jess has spent most of her adult life working in and owning pubs - a very different lifestyle to the one she has now! (She used to finish work at 5am and stop by the studio to practice at 6am before going to bed).
2. She has endometriosis and PCOS, which is what originally drew her to women's health, and how yoga can support this.
3. Jess is Irish and moved here in 2007 and met her husband. They now have 3 children together, 2 step children, 1 donor baby for her same-sex friends, a giant dog, a cat and a bird! (It's a busy life😂)
4. Jess' children are tangata whenua and they are a bilingual family raising their kids in a Māori medium education.
5. She is an absolute nerd! If Jess could spend the rest of her life studying and learning she'd be a happy woman!
