NOTICE: For one week from the 20thof August,  my computer is going to hospital for a heart transplant, so I am going to take the opportunity to paint and do other things! Write a new course, massage…. I will be using the understudy computer, but, I am not sure how fabulous it will be, so I am making my apologies now.  Please note that I may not  be able to be as efficient as I attempt to be now… we will have to wait and see.

THOUGHT FOR THE DAY:    “God does not ask about your ability, He asks about your AVAILABILITY”  The Late Mary Kay Ash,  founder The Mary Kay cosmetics empire.

 

NEXT HEMP INFORMATION SESSION: Don’t forget – I have opened the Woodend Studio up between 2.30 and 4 EVERY Saturday.  Drop in.  I will be in the studio, or if the weather is good, in the garden. I hope you will take this opportunity to come see me, and talk about HEMP, and CBD oil and beeswax balm disks ($22.25 for 3 including postage).  We also have a Kannabis Herbal Essence to add to our flower essences made from flowers and herbs in my garden.  Let me show you around – the garden is even more beautiful in the winter.

A massage using our new essences and oils is $85.00 for our students and members,  $120 for non-members).

 

“CBD (Sativa) ENERGY ESSENCE”:  The energy essences are working beautifully.  I have been able to produce a new batch.  So if you missed out last time.  They are back.

CBD THE COURSE:  Not ready yet, but important if you are working in the alternative health field, and you want to know what it is, what the law says in Australia.  There are also recipes etc…

 

PHONE CONSULTATIONS: (as per the Studio questions above) If you would like to book a phone call with me.  We can explore your yoga business, expanding your studio, expanding your practice or asana /philosophy concerns – I am looking forward to hearing from you. There is a cost, it is a consultation the same as any other – an hour is an hour: $85 for an hour.

 

GRADUATE DIPLOMA MASSAGE CLASS:  This includes a 4week practical class (every Tuesday between 7pm and 9pm) with home study. It will encompass PPT, and all we know to date about the endocannabinoid system,  the CerebroSpinalFluid and hypermobility and how this effects our massage.  Quite a complex class which will be the first of our classes to be certified with ITEC International and VTCT Aus.  Go to www.pptmassage.com for sign up details.  Starts 27th August between 7pm and 9pm.

YOGA WITH JAHNE…..CLASS TIMES – all STUDIO classes $20

All on the Web Site.  Go to www.yogabeautiful.com.au  for classes.

Our classes are sooo terrific. They are such fun, so much family.  Thank you girls.  I am loving them all over again.

I am meeting people all the time, and many locals say they “would love to come to class when the weather is warmer”.  As much as I try to understand this, I don’t really.  In the old days we wore skimpy leotards all year.  It did tend to be cold, but that was how it was.  Now, I encourage loose comfortable clothing, we have a great heater (I don’t hold classes on the deck), so the climate shouldn’t be a consideration.

COST: Yoga $20 per Class Or CLASS PASS – $135 per 10 CONSECUTIVEclasses (students of the studio for 3 years or more).   New students: $165 per 10 class pass (normally $200)  After 3 years as a student, the cheaper rate will apply.

 

UNITING CHURCH FOOD BANK:  Next door to the Police Station, Forest Road, Woodend.  Monday:12noon FREE lunch.  The 1pm yoga will be held at the Studio in Woodend, not at the Church.  The electrical system there ceased to function a week or so back, and although it was repaired, still doesn’t work.  I don’t like doing yoga in -5 degrees, and I think my students are more discerning (sensible) too.

Why Register with THE AUSTRALASIAN YOGA INSTITUTE? 

THIS IS IMPORTANT.

We are your lineage.  You can pretend, you can take cheaper options, you can use all kinds of rationalization BUT WE ARE YOUR LINEAGE, your yoga family.  No-one else can be.   PLEASE, PLEASE CHECK YOUR REGISTRATION.  You need to be currently registered AT THE LEVEL AT WHICH YOU ARE NOW – STUDENT OR GRADUATE for your insurance to be valid, and you will need to supply a copy of a valid registration to be insured with AON.  If you insure as a graduate when you are still a student it may cause problems if there ever was a claim – it is possible you may not be insured because you didn’t tell the truth about your qualification.    You also need to forward a current first aidcertificate with your application and CPE when necessary (see below)

Please check your insurance requirements – keep up to date. We have moved to AON insurance.  You will be able to insure on-line BUT you will need a current (student or graduate) Registration to prove you are a member with us to get the advantages that a big firm like AON can offer.

CPE:  To bring us in line with INTERNATIONAL requirements rather than just Australian, we will only be requiring you to do your CPE every 3 years, do it round about the same time you do your first aid which is also a 3 year requirement.
