Yoga with Aroha

Yoga with Aroha Welcome!! To be completely honest, I teach this class to keep me doing yoga at home🫣. I'm better at doing stuff for other people than I am for myself!

So it keeps my practice regular knowing I need to be prepared to teach on Monday 😁. Keeping it real🤙

Monday Yoga is back!!
Starting 11 May through 29 June
10-11:30am
St Andrew's Hall in Hokitika

I love these wee KNITTED! cacti that were at our holiday house on Ōkārito. To me these little beauties embody Patanjali's yoga sutra 2.46, "sthira sukham asanam".

Sthira- meaning steady and strong
Sukham - meaning comfortable and easy
Asanam - posture, pose or seat

The knitted cacti represent a hard prickly plant but in a soft and inviting way. Existing simultaneously just like steadiness, strength and effort are balanced with comfort and ease in a yoga/life practice 🕉️.

For more strange and insightful (?🤔) musings, see you on Monday!

Howdy! Just a reminder that our first yoga class of term 2 will be on MAY 11 (not tomorrow)!! As promised, here is a fun video with a little something you may like to add to your personal practise in the meantime 🍑. Meet Storm, a cool kiwi farmer physio with some very sensible tips for an effective Bridge pose.

Until we meet again🕉️❤️

Namaste Yogis and Yoginis🙏

Monday yoga is on a wee break for the school holidays. I've taken a look at a calendar and I see I have double booked myself for Monday May 4🫣. Because April 27 is Anzac day, which means no Monday class, I have decided the next yoga term will START on May 11. Beg pardon for the long stretch without a class!! I will post weekly fun videos to try in the meantime and I'll see you on May 11 😍.
