To my Precious Yoga Students.
THE EVOLUTION OF HEALTH AND FITNESS with ZEN YOGA STRETCH.

NOTICE: this week we have switched to a new provider, and a new Web design. The address hasn’t changed – yogabeautiful.com.au. This changeover should be as smooth as silk, but we live in an imperfect world… please let me know if you notice anything that you think needs my attention on the new website. As soon as you can, subscribe to our free newsletter. It will keep you up to date with the school and teacher training. If you get this via email, you’re already subscribed (as a student) but you can also subscribe as a trainee/teacher if appropriate.

From this newsletter, I will be in charge of the design, layout and mail out. It will be new to me so be patient.

SILENT RETREAT.

We are holding a silent retreat (Relax, just from 10.30 to 4.30) on Sunday 22nd April. Not exactly “One Hundred Days of Solitude”. The cost is $50, and a plate simple sharing food for lunch. To book, please email me at yogafirst2@bigpond.com

A new school term is about to start, winter is on the way, and traditionally, this is the time to concentrate on yoga. Most people don’t realise that fitness is as much psychological as it is physical. To have a healthy body you need a healthy balanced mind. They go hand in hand.

Zen Yoga Stretch originated by Jahne through her experience with 50 years of yoga and studies in Zen and Shaolin Zen Kung Fu, and is composed of soft, flowing movements designed to stimulate the acupuncture meridians and their associated organs. By combining visualisations, breathing patterns and physical movements, this is a highly effective, preventative health discipline, not to mention a fun routine. This has been evolving – it is not a change, just something to work towards.

On the 27th of May Jahne will be exhibiting at REDS Restaurant in Woodend. From 2pm to 4pm in order to raise funds for The GitaJaia Yoga Foundation – and this year, monies raised will go towards helping teach yoga to people in recovery from addiction and life trauma.
