We have classes at FOUR venues.  This is the very latest news….as at the 8th May,2018.

HATHA YOGA Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday at 6.30, and Saturdays at 10am. RESTORATIVE YOGA at 5.30 on Wednesday. MEDITATION 6.30 on Friday (No charge).

 

THE STUDIO: 37 Morris Road, Woodend.

Tuesday Restorative Class at the Studio: Please note that there are no classes on Tuesday morning at my studio due to lack of interest. If you would like a class at this time, please let me know.  I will consider running them next term for a minimum of 5 people who purchase a 10 week class pass at $135.  This will be for 10 consecutive classes in Restorative Yoga on the Tuesday morning.  (Transferable to other classes in the same week).  Taking and paying for a class at a time has not worked,  as people come for one class, miss the next two etc etc leaving me with classes from none to 5…. it doesn’t work.  For this class to go ahead, you will need to be committed.  Please register your interest with me at yogafirst2@bigpond.com I would love to go ahead with these classes.  they are beautiful….

OTHER STUDIO CLASSES: Teacher Training every Wednesday at 12.30 (and Teacher Training every 1st Sunday in the month at 2pm to 4pm) PHILOSOPHY at 11.30 on Saturdays and RESTORATIVE YOGA at 12.30 on Saturdays.

Hatha Yoga at 11.30 Mondays

BENDIGO: Crusoeden Health, Church St. Kangaroo Flat.

Teacher Training 1st Tuesday in the month, 3.30 to 5pm

We also can conduct private training for you at the Studio!

I am often asked to recommend a second step for those who have completed their Teacher Training Course.  I totally agree with the idea of keeping the study up – once you slow down it is hard to start up again, and there is so much to know, so much to do….

 

The REHABILITATION and RECOVERY Post Graduate classes are such a wonderful way to go.  They are not by Distance Education (they can’t be), you will need to log in with me, be mentored by me, and work closely with the in the first instance.  They are challenging.  It is even going to be a challenge for me to know how to teach them.  I have been doing yoga for so long I don’t know what I know, my mind contains a huge repository of knowledge that I instinctively draw on, and need to learn how to pass along to you.  I think I can, and I know it is going to be wonderful for us both.  A learning journey, that includes everything I have taught you in the past.  Hyper mobility, CSF Connection – everything.

THE EXHIBITION

This is the beginning of one of my artworks for the exhibition at REDS in Woodend on the 27th of the month (2pm to 4pm).

Please come along and support our Foundation by donating or purchasing a piece of my work, large or small.  This will support our pro-bono work in rehabilitation.

 

 

I don’t know how many of you would lie in bed at nigh dreaming of rehab and recovery yoga – but I have been.

Once I learned that the statistics for drug addiction are huge and rising it “sharpened my pencil” so to speak.

When I was a “child of the 60’s” drug addiction was running at under 2% (some have said .01%, but that has to be confirmed).  Lets say 2%.  Now, today, 60% of the population is addicted to something.  Not just hard drugs, but alcohol, nicotine, prescription drugs, over the counter pain killers.. etc etc.  You can’t just fix one thing…  hence my program (and lectures) DRUGS, YOGA and SPIRITUALITY are hugely important.  Each part is important, each part needs to be taught, explained worked on before success can be achieved in the long term.  You can’t take a person away from their surroundings, take everything off them and the put nothing back and expect success.  It may look successful, but it won’t stick.

If you want treatment you can go to Government Rehabs – but they are hard to get into, overcrowded and underfunded.  You could go to Private rehabs but they are VERY expensive.  Very expensive.  Parents mortgage their houses to get their children in,  believing they are they answer – and they are for some.  Whichever you choose there are no guarantees.

We might have an alternative.  How about a program that included regular yoga classes, meditation, philosophy and “just being there”.  I have been doing this for 10 years, and it works long term if the client really wants to change.   You could even use our program as an aftercare alternative to enhance a program you have already taken….

If you want to explore this,  join us as a client, or as a student of our method,  or to learn to teach it – please contact me.

You can support us by diarising and then coming to our ART SHOW at Reds in Woodend.  We will be raising funds to support our not-for-profit Foundation.
