Shraddha Yoga&Meditation has more venues&classes. Our main overarching organization is Shraddha Yoga and Meditation, a registered charity in NZ. As we have three yoga classes a week during school terms in the hall at St John's Church Centre, 145-149 Kamo Rd, Kensington, Whangārei, we started the page called Whangarei City YOGA, or Whangārei City Yoga, to promote these. We also have a fourth city class. It is at Studio Paradise, 79 Walton St, Whangārei Central. Come join our classes! More may eventuate in the future. 🕉️

Hatha Yoga & Pranayama Wednesday 9am

I'm keen to go to this yoga class again when it restarts on 11 Feb.

Love the guaranteed bit of Pranayama, which often gets called breathwork but that probably doesn't aptly describe it as they are specific yoga breathing techniques with specific effects. Pranayama is one of the major steps of Patanjali's 8-fold path, and some breathwork seems to be simply ways of learning to breathe more fully and smoothly. Of course, 'good' breathing is always important to be doing ... we do this when practicing our Asana (poses) as a matter of course anyway as it's pretty hard to do poses without awareness of, or watching, the breath (often there's coordination of movement in and out of poses with the in and out breath).

Note that practice of specific Pranayama comes after Asana and before Pratyahara (sense withdrawal) in the 8-fold path of Patanjali.

It's a beautiful class in a lovely room at the historic Old Library in the centre of the city. I also like the earlier start (than our 10am ones) as it gets me prepared for a good day a little bit sooner. Although we travel in from Maunu, it doesn't seem to take too much longer than later on in the morning.

If you cannot come in person, come virtually! My friend from Vancouver can also 'be there' - she attends on Zoom as the time it lines up with for her there suits her.💚

It was awesome to see the students at Tuesday morning 10am CITY YOGA (old link but we were there today!) It's Xmas tree time at St John's ... and I've included a pic of the beautiful hall where we teach our yoga. From the teaching end.
