THE AUSTRALASIAN YOGA INSTITUTE IS MISSION DRIVEN AND MEMBER SUPPORTED. BECOME A REGISTERED MEMBER TODAY.
VIDEOS:
There are still people who have fallen through the net, however, I won’t know until you contact me. No matter what category you fall into, please start taking note of the time spent watching videos (you should have been doing this anyway). You should be taking record of everything yoga you are doing every day under the various headings in a spring folder. This includes the videos, otherwise how can you keep track of the time you are spending on techniques, philosophy etc. So get out the folder every day, and start recording. Then monthly, transfer it to your passport. One line, in each subject each month. So if you watch the philosophy video for 15 minutes, that is contact hours 15 mins, and philosophy 15 minutes. Backtracking is hard.
FOUNDATION ART SHOW
It is hard to give to everything, however, we are your Institute, and we ask for your support at the ART SHOW to aid the Foundation which is the non-profit arm of our organisation.
REDS RESTAURANT, Sunday the 27th May at 2pm.
If you can’t come, then please donate. For donations $75 and over, patrons will receive one of my silk angels ready to frame. Go to Foundation.moonfruit.com for details.
ORBS (angels?) One of the inspirations for my present work. I have taken photographs, which I can’t get to show up on this page… people have said they are the result of sand on the lens. However, I have had these visitations many times – even in my bedroom. Not many sandstorms in my bedroom!
TEACHING TO THE REHABILITATION AND RECOVERY COMMUNITY
It is increasingly my focus. I am inviting you to join me, learning to help these ANGELS recover. Would you like to do what I do? This is a special area and I am giving great thought to teaching teachers what I know – how I teach. I do have 50 years of teaching experience. If I can teach people who want to work in the area, who have the experience of recovery – they will make fabulous support workers, or yoga teachers in this area.
Even yoga teachers who haven’t experienced addiction need this teaching, as at the present the statistic is that 60% of the population are addicts. Hard drugs, prescribed medications, alcohol (a “biggie”), nicotine. So 6 out of 10 people standing in front of you have the possibility of being addicted. Even if you can’t see this, even if you can’t recognize what is in front of you they need special help, special understanding – people don’t wear placards saying “I am an addict – please help me!”.
Do you want to help? I will be training you to help you, to help them.
THE BIKE SHED:
The BIKE SHED are aiming to fix 50 bikes for vulnerable families by the end of winter, helping break a viscous cycle and they need help on Thursday mornings. Call Lara a call on 0424 599 168 or Bronwyn on 0409 284 141 for more info, or just show up on a Thursday morning to join in!
WHY THE FOUNDATION? THE NOT-FOR-PROFIT ARM OF OUR INSTITUTE.
It is simple. The government has always been reluctant to fund yoga programs, and that has a flow on effect. The amount of yoga/meditation and yoga philosophy classes that are needed and wanted by people going through rehab, cannot be supported. So we have always supported out own work. The need has never been greater.
At the present time, I personally am doing EIGHT PRO BONO classes per week. 6 yoga, one meditation and one yoga philosophy. The fact I am not being paid is having a great POSITIVE effect on my result. The students know I am there because I believe in what I do, and they start with me ready to work hard. We have some wonderful, wonderful patrons, but we need your help too. I want to widen our scope. More FREE classes for more people recovering from addictions. HOW TO HELP? Come to our exhibitions, buy from ETSY, take our programs. Everything we make through the institute goes to help.. You can help, you can make our work possible.
Why Register with THE AUSTRALASIAN YOGA INSTITUTE?
You trained with us, you are a part of our lineage (or we are a part of yours), Registration supports this. PLEASE, PLEASE CHECK YOUR REGISTRATION. You need to be currently registered for your insurance to be valid, and you will need to supply a copy of a valid registration to be insured. Please check your insurance requirements – keep up to date. They change quickly.
REGISTRATION – CONTINUING EDUCATION REQUIREMENT.
We have fallen in line with other organisations and ask people who are registered with us and wish to re-register to do at least one short course in the year as a continuing education requirement. You need to keep up. You can do one of my little courses on ETSY, or someone else’s, doesn’t have to be onerous, just something to keep you on your academic toes so to speak. Just watching a DVD won’t be enough unless you actually write a report on what you watched and why you watched it – the outcome – how it changed how you do what you do.

THE BENTINCK – on the corner of High Street and Romsey Road, Woodend. Enter ONLY through the Romsey Road gate where you see the yoga sign.Do not park in the front of the Bentinck. The main two story building is NOT The Yoga Centre.
HOME STUDIO – 37 Morris Road, Woodend. Park on white gravel in front of the studio, or in the drive-way directly opposite in front of double grey garage rolladoors. Not in front of neighbours driveways please. No matter how many times I say this, students park all over the street, anywhere rather than the white gravel put there for them. PARKING? ON THE WHITE GRAVEL PLEASE, PLEASE, PLEASE.
NORTHCOTE: 9 Langwells Pde. (near Aldi). Ling and Kristy will be taking over these classes. Plenty of parking at Aldi. FREE 2 Hour park, or All Day nearer the Police Station at the back.
PAST LIFE REGRESSION – Home Studio by appointment only.
I have had some enquiries this month and am responding here. I always take people for regression who actually have a problem to solve. Not those who are just curious. The regression has the possibility of being “difficult” it is not like being Elizabeth Taylor on the set of Cleopatra. If you want to spend time with me the basic price is $285 for a three hour session. You may need a second ($250). I won’t take anyone who is on medication for anxiety or depression. It dulls the senses and makes regression difficult and the outcome uncertain. There are enough uncertainties as it is.
MONTHLY TEACHER TRAINING AT THE HOME STUDIO:
The next one will be on Sunday 3rd June, 2pm to 4pm at my home studio (37 Morris Road in Woodend). (thank goodness IT IS NOT MOTHER’S DAY) There is no need to book. Bring writing materials, and be early. If you are teacher Training student then the cost of the afternoon is $20 (to bring it in line with yoga classes). If you are through training – still come.
BENDIGO Teacher Training classes –Next class is Thursday 10th May at 3.30pm Turn at the Metricon building on the highway in Kangaroo Flat. It is a traffic light intersection, just up from Bunnings. Crusoeden is the building behind Metricon building, and faces Church Street. It’s easy to find. Cost: $20 per class (to bring it in line with the cost of a yoga class) for everyone who attends – thank you. (Directors – Jayne Boyle – crusoedenbody@bigpond.com). Regular classes held – please email for timetable.
CLASSES AT OUR AFFILIATE STUDIOS IN EUROA, LYONSVILLE, APOLLO BAY – Pease email me for details
NEW ADDITIONS TO THE SHOP AND ETSY.
Why haunt libraries for information on the chakras, yamas, and other yoga philosophies relevant to the course (or The Tarot). It is all on ETSY. We do plan to update our shop (and the prices) with the new web update, but we will never be able to offer the options and service of etsy which has millions of customers. For you who have never used ETSY please visit. It is fabulous and oh so EASY. You will find all our books, our DVD’s and CD’s on ETSY. (The Paul Grilley DVD’s are on our web site shop). Please go to www.myyogabooks.etsy.com. Or www.yogabeautiful.com.au. for the Paul Grilley DVD’s (price about to go up as the exchange rate gets more difficult). If you are new and haven’t read about YAMAS, CHAKRAS then I have distilled them for you. Go to the Etsy site as above and have a look – especially at the new book and DVD on Hypermobility..
EMAIL/POST: Please use the email address yogafirst@optusnet.com.au for anything to do with accounts, or the usual yogafirst2@bigpond.com. to get to me. If you do want to speak to me personally, then email, make a time suitable for both of us, and then we can chat. If you do it this way, rather than just “wing it”, you can be reasonably sure I have time, and you will get my attention. POSTAL ADDRESS is not at my home – Please address all land mail to PO Box 14, Mt.Macedon. Vic. 3441. Until you see a change written here in large letters, that is where it will be.
Don’t forget to Register if you are teaching even if you have not graduated (especially if you have not graduated), insure and re-subscribe to the videos every 12 months. Don’t leave these to the last minute.
Love and Blessings
