Community Yoga by the River

Itinerary

You will begin your Yoga classes with breath awareness and grounding, the Ashtanga matra followed by Kriyas (breath cleansing techniques) and then moving through the Ashtanga Primary series of postures at a dynamic pace to get the body and your energy moving.

The class includes Yoga postures to develop flexibility and strength with a focus on balancing the autonomous nervous system and utilising badhas (core energy locks). Guidance and instruction is given by the teacher and our volunteer demonstrators may also provide you with visual of the moves and knowledge being communicated.

The Ashtanga Primary series is a higher intensity practice than our other classes, utilising flow sequences, balancing postures, back bends, organ rejuvinating, twists and forward folds, with all movements undertaken in sync with the breath and Yogic mindfulness. We conclude with a 5-10 minute shavasana or guided meditation to integrate your body's development and the recovery and expansion of your body's energys.ystems.
