🌞 2026 timetable • Weekly classes at Fitzroy SLSC •

Over the break, I spent time reflecting on how Nuku takes up space online. Yoga is a practice that supports presence and inward connection — time spent away from external noise.

I noticed where frequent weekly reminders can add to that noise. This year, I’m choosing to let Nuku move more softly online. I’ll continue sharing important schedule changes here, and you can trust the booking website to stay up to date.

We’re lucky to have this established community, and I don’t want to add to the noise — these classes are intended as a space for steadiness, presence, and inward connection 🤎

🌞 2026 timetable • Book online (link in bio)

Over the break, I spent time reflecting on how Nuku takes up space online. It was nourishing to disconnect from social media and feel that shift inward.

Yoga is a practice that supports presence and inward connection - time spent away from external noise.
I noticed a tension between that intention and the frequency of sharing weekly reminders here.

This year, I’m choosing to let Nuku move more softly online. I’ll continue to share important schedule changes, and the booking website will always be accurate but you’ll notice less noise.

My hope is that these classes remain a space for steadiness, presence, and inward connection 🤎

💛💛💛 LOGGING OFF & THANK YOU // As Nuku began earlier this year I wrote about hoping to create a non-judgemental space where laughter and wobbles are welcome, a space where perfection is not the goal but movement is, a space where movement can be both celebrated and enjoyed. Thanks to this beautifully down and earth and fun community, Nuku has had the privelige of being all these things and more. I could not be more grateful for the energy that you all bring.
In January when Nuku began, I had been in Taranaki only a few months and alongside wanting to share the practise of yoga, I also wanted to feel a sense of community in a new home. I could not be more grateful to all of you for your practise, your presence in class, your tautoko and your sense of community. He mihi nui ki a koutou, mō tō tautoko i tēnei tau 🤎
Wishing you all a beautiful festive season. Notice where amidst the festivity and sunshine you find a sense of calm and lightheartedness. See you all in the new year, Sam 🫶🏼🌞

our last two sauna sessions have embraced yin energies reflective of the seasons in which we were practising, this time around we will embrace the warmth and sunshine of raumati with a vinyasa sequence to build heat, strength and mobility before settling into the sauna 🌞🌞

This concept shared by has had such a beautiful impact on me this morning
🌀🌀 We want to create a village, be in a village, but do we want to be villagers? Do you practise, so that you can be more present with others?🌀🌀
I was lucky enough to experience being a villager in our community last night, being guided through a beautiful yoga practise with .whare.wairua and the timing of reading these words couldn’t be better timed 🤎🤎🤎
Creation of villages and communities is so special but it can be easy to forget how important it is to also be a villager, that participation is just as necessary as creation 🌞
A beautiful reminder that our practise helps us show up in our hapori/ community, helps us show up for ourselves so we can show up for others

SIMPLICITY 🌀🌀
As a teacher, I often find myself getting caught up with wanting each class to be different and unique. Wanting each class to offer something new. While this is really fun and creative, I’ve recently noticed where it can pull away from the heart of yoga - using movement to guide inner noticing.
Simplicity and repitition can be beautiful tools to encourage this inward practise. As much as I love sharing creative sequences, I realise where accessing that movement inward might be better supported by simplicity and repitition.
Yesterday I practised with a local Iyengar teacher and left feeling INSPIRED. The practise was slow and strong, we practised maybe 12 asana. I left feeling embodied and like I had accessed that inner awareness yoga seeks to create. I left feeling inspired to share a more stripped back and simplified practise with you all (And will absolutely be going back to Iyengar yoga!)

In a world that is so busy, a world full of distractions and multitasking, a world full of content to consume // SIMPLICITY feels really powerful, it feels rebellious in our busy world - and I am so inspired to share this with you all over the coming weeks.

// ka nui te mihi for reading if you made it this far 😂🫶🏼

🌞🌞FLOURISH FRIDAYS // WESTOWN // OCT 24th - DEC 12th

🌳🌳 RĀKAU/ TREE POSE ~~ i tēnei wiki our classes are themed around the shapes that build your rākau āsana. Taking inspiration from your standing tree balance āsana, we will explore ways that similar shapes can be threaded into your practise to build both strength and familiarity holding that āsana (creating a tree shape with your legs in Boat pose is my favourite!!)
Hope to see you in class! Explore strength and balance by challenging traditional āsanas! 🌀🌀
