Autumn Yoga Weekend


It's time for another yoga weekend!

Once again the weekend will be held at the beautiful Yamba Surf Club, with some lovely morning Autumn sun on Main Beach (hopefully!).

Friday 5.30 - 7pm Yoga
Followed by dinner

Saturday 6.30am - 8am Yoga
Followed by breakfast

Saturday 5.30 - 7pm Yoga
Followed by dinner

Sunday 7.30 - 9am Yoga
Followed by breakfast
 
During Autumn as it is starts to cool down, vata (air element) increases in our bodies. If vata is aggravated your skin and hair may feel dry, you may feel bloated, and possibly start to feel anxious or flustered.


To balance this, we need to eat warm, grounding, nourishing, seasonal foods. Think slow cooked root vegetables, warm herbal tea, porridge and warming spices such as cinnamon and ginger. This also means we have to avoid raw, dry, cold food. So leave the raw crunchy salads for summer!

Our yoga asana practice also needs to balance our vata dosha. Our postures will be grounding, relaxed, slow, opening, yet warming postures.

Hope you can come to my autumn yoga weekend! 
Please contact me if you have any questions.

Yoga & Breakfast


The perfect way to start your day - Yoga, a dip in the ocean and breaky on the beach.

After the morning classes, I will be offering breakfast for you to enjoy on the beach. It will mainly be Feed the Yogi Muesli, as well as a couple of other delicious, healthy recipes, based on quinoa or brown rice and a tahini bircher style muesli. They will be served with unhomogonised milk or yoghurt.

If you would like breakfast & yoga it will be $17, and if you could let me know the night before if you'll be having it that would be great!

Merry Christmas!

Balance out the indulgent side of Christmas with some cleansing yoga. All my classes are on as usual over the Christmas break.

I have also added another class. Wednesday morning at 7.30am at the Surf Club. Perfect time for a morning yoga session if you're on holidays!

Feed the yogi.


I have packaged up my muesli!

You'll soon find it at Causley's Fresh Deli, or pick up some from me after yoga. Just let me know, and I'll bring some for you.

The muesli is handmade in my little kitchen at the cottage so the recipe tends to change very slightly each time...

So far I have two toasted muesli varieties - Honey, spice and almond, and Lemon, coconut and macadamia. The oats, seeds, nuts and spices are lightly toasted in organic macadamia oil and Australian honey.

A raw muesli and a gluten free muesli are on the way!
