Saturday Morning Led Practices

20/1/2018

Once a month you can start your weekend with a yoga session at Nelson Iyengar Yoga, by attending our Led Practice on Saturday morning from 9:00-10:30 am.

In these sessions you will be guided through a general sequence of asanas without a lot of detailed instruction. We will all do the practice together. This is a quieter, more introspective yoga experience than a regular class, and offers you a chance to take ownership of your practice in a more personal way.

Bookings are not required for these sessions.
Cost is the same as a regular class: either use your concession card, or pay casual $15

The first Led Practice for 2018 will be on Saturday 10 February

Next Beginners Course starts 7 February 2018

20/12/2017

Regular yoga practice can increase ease of movement, calmness of mind, general energy levels, plus bring other benefits like healthy digestion and sleep. Our beginners course is a great place to start, or resume, your yoga journey. The course will suit someone who has never done any yoga, or who's done a little, or has had a long break from it.

The upcoming course will run for 8 successsive weeks. Each week we will cover a few more of the basic asanas (poses). Each session is 1 hr and 15 mins long, and includes a 5-10 minute relaxation at the end. The teaching is gradual and progressive with plenty of demonstration and explanation. You will be introduced to the principles of alignment, and learn how to use various props (blocks, straps, blankets) for extra support where there is stiffness or injury.

This first course for 2018 will start on Wednesday 7 February 2018, 5:30-6:45 pm.
To register please fill out the form on the Beginners page.
