Yoga Haven

Private Zoom Yoga and Bodyweight Fitness / HIIT Classes. Corporate Yoga and Fitness Classes. We realise we need only look within to find our haven, our home.

By becoming more in tune with our body and our breath we find home within ourselves. When we are at home in our heart, body and mind, we become our own best friend, so that whatever happens we need only look within to find our safe haven. We find the courage and resilience within to transform what we perceive to be life’s misfortunes into our own greatest gifts, for it is only from the depths of despair that we can rise the highest. It is my hope that through the transformative practice of Yoga we learn to spin our straw into gold and be who we were meant to be. I teach in the hope that Yoga will lift people out of the everyday, to have fun and feel inspired to try things they would never have thought they could do before. Through practice and devotion our body becomes strong and our mind clear. Class times: Thursdays 6:30 - 8pm & Sundays 8:30 - 10am

Class Types:

Hatha Vinyasa (Yang Yoga)

Energetic & dynamic classes which focus on cultivating a quiet mind, strong supple body and open heart through the transformative effects of moving with your breath and exploring your own unique edge in each pose. We seek to bring you into your own experience of your body & breath while working your muscles and stretching your body in a way that is both challenging and fun. Classes are small and ensure each student receives personal attention and if necessary, hands-on adjustments. Props such as blocks and straps are used to make the postures beneficial and accessible to everyone, and postures are modified or varied to suit the capabilities and individual skeletal variations of each student. Yin Yoga

The more well-known styles of Yoga which build strength and emphasize muscular engagement & rhythmic movement can be called “Yang” Yoga, from the perspective that active effort is required to perform and maintain the postures. As such, Yang Yoga poses are generally held for relatively short periods of time (e.g. 5-10 breaths). Yang Yoga (or any other Yang forms of exercise like going to the gym) however does not “exercise” or stretch the fascia (connective tissue), joints, tendons and ligaments of the body which only respond to passive, longer held stretches (e.g. 3-5mins). It is necessary to exercise and stretch both the muscles as well as the fascia and joints to maintain overall balanced physical health. Yin Yoga comprises of mainly floor poses which stretch the fascia, joints and ligaments in a non-aggressive, non-rhythmic way. Exercising the joints prevents and relieves contracture of the fascia around the joints increasing the range of motion of the joint, prevents joint degeneration, encourages defixation and clears the energy pathways in the body stimulating the flow of energy through the body.

Many people have the impression that if they decide to eat low-carb healthy meals they’ll be relegated to a life of broiled chicken breast and steamed broccoli.... I'd like to dispel this popular misconception 😅 With a little creativity, low-carb meals can be tasty, colourful and satisfying.

Here's our recipe for homemade Crystal Fried Rice using Konjac rice, a low-carb, low-calorie rice substitute made from the Konjac plant which is a type of root vegetable with a high fibre content. 😊

How To Make:
1️⃣ Add diced onions and good-quality coconut oil into a preheated pan. Sauté the onions until golden brown. Add the garlic and chopped French beans. Cook for 10min.

2️⃣ Drain the liquid from the konjac crystal rice packet and add the crystal rice to the pan. Cook until any excess liquid evaporates.

3️⃣ Add 1 tsp of oyster sauce, 2 tsps of light soy sauce, a pinch of salt and the chopped chillis (can adjust the amounts according to taste). Mix well and let simmer.

4️⃣ Add the diced prawns and bacon. Mix well and cook for 5min.

5️⃣ Make a space / “hole” in the centre of the crystal rice mix, crack open the 2 eggs and let them sit and cook in the cleared space at the centre of the pan. Once the eggs are sufficiently cooked, mix them all together with the rest of the crystal rice mix.

6️⃣ Garnish with chopped spring onions and serve!

Try it and let me know what you think! 🍽😍

Motherhood changes us irrevocably. Pregnancy itself wreaks havoc on your body in ways you don’t even know is possible until you experience it. But we bear the struggle with pride, joyful to be growing a new life inside us. And when the time finally arrives, we willingly give our lives over to a tiny little being, with our heart full of love. We sacrifice our bodies, our time, and commit to living a life of service to our children so that they grow up happy, healthy and able to face the challenges of our world. That is what being a Mother is.

But in order to be the best mothers to our children, we need to love and care for ourselves too, so we don’t feel depleted and can give our best to our kids. We need to teach by example so our children see that we are healthy, happy and strong. We will never be able to look exactly as we did before - our whole bodies have stretched to house our babies. We have changed, and we should be proud of what our bodies have accomplished. But we can still look after ourselves, eat nutritious food, exercise and get enough rest. We can take care of and feel good about ourselves.

Many people think they aren't strong enough to do a Handstand, or that it is something they could only do as a child. But can you remember why you did it as a child? Because it was fun, because it was exhilarating. Let me assure you, it is just as fun and joyful doing a Handstand as an adult.

AND IT IS NOT AS HARD AS YOU THINK! Especially when we use the wall to help us.

I did a wall assisted Handstand in the very first Yoga class I attended, and I was a complete beginner with no strength training background. The teacher said "Let's walk up the wall and practise beginner Handstands" and I watched disbelievingly as the other students did it with ease. And then I tried it and it was not that hard!! I couldn't believe I could do it. The sense of exhilaration I felt at stepping beyond my comfort zone was thrilling and I was on a high for the rest of the evening.

Inversions like handstands have countless benefits - they relieve neck pain, increase blood flow to the brain thereby improving memory and concentration. Good circulation also brings brightness to the skin making you look younger. And because they are scary to do, inversions also build courage and nudge you out of your familiar comfort zone. They give you a rush and you feel happy after doing it.

If you'd like to try a Zoom Yoga or Circuit Training class with the goal of building up to a Handstand, DM us or email us at info@yogahaven.yoga 🙌💪

Green vegetables are packed with vitamins and nutrients that are vital to our health and wellbeing. But sometimes it is hard to eat enough different types of greens at mealtimes. So what I've been doing for the last 4 years is to blend my greens into a smoothie - easy, efficient and energising. I still eat as many veggies as I can with my meals but I also have my green smoothie, and it tastes surprisingly good considering there're no fruits in it. In fact, my 3year old has been having it with every meal since she was 8 months old!🥬💚

How to Make:
1. Combine all the ingredients in a blender and blend for 1 minute
2. Pour the green smoothie into a glass and serve
*Can adjust the chocolate protein powder amount and substitute oat milk for coconut water according to personal tastes.

I use Oatley oat milk and Protein Matrix+ protein powder.

Since I started drinking this green smoothie twice daily I have lost weight, my skin looks clearer and brighter and I fall ill far less often.

I've been practising Yoga for 15 years and teaching for 12. I first tried Yoga in 2005 at a big commercial gym and did not enjoy it. I thought it was slow, pointless, boring - a waste of a class. Then in 2008 I tried a class somewhere else and the experience could not have been more different. It was challenging, interesting and FUN. There are so many different styles of Yoga out there, and you need to find the type of Yoga class with a teacher that is right for you.

After having kids, I had to really pinpoint the things that I was passionate about, because mothers don't have the luxury of time to pursue many interests. I had to give up a lot of things I enjoyed, but Yoga was never one of them. My practice however did have to change. I used to be able to enjoy classes at studios, but I am now no longer able to spend so much time travelling to and from classes, so my practice has evolved to a home practice (that is also why I now teach mainly via Zoom). I practise for 20-50min depending on the demands of the day and then I'm done. My Yoga practice was also the only thing that kept me SANE in 2020 when I was in lockdown with a newborn and a 2yr old. 😅🧘‍♀️

We all need something meaningful that we do for ourselves. It could be going for a run, practising Yoga, dancing, making music or art - anything where we find inspiration, creativity and connection to ourselves. What do you do that's purely for yourself?
