OUTDOOR YOGA

Bask in the beauty of mother nature

Feel the sunshine warm your face, the gentle breeze on your skin, the smell of grass and the sound of birds as you roll out your mat and join me and community in the bliss of our divine mother nature.

This is a fun all-levels class that will draw on the natural elements and help you tap into the wholeness, joy, and freedom always present within.

The location is one of privacy (mostly), you don’t have to worry about being watched,  just maybe a dog or two, if any, paying some interest and excitement at your growing harmonious energy. Unlike your controlled studio or home practice, you will have the aliveness of the natural elements in your presence, however this can be a serene experience if you allow it to be, tapping into the divine vibration and energy to support you in your practice!

Why practice outdoors

There’s so many benefits to practicing yoga in the great outdoors, here’s a few to inspire you as you join me in this one off experience this summer (and maybe more in 2021 – stay tuned on my Facebook Group @yogaspirit):

1. See it as a perfect opporunity to recognise that your yoga practice exists within you and accept each moment as it is

2. Practicing yoga outside barefoot has a grounding effect

3. Let your yoga practice engage all of your senses and change your perspective

5. Recognize your connectedness to nature, and how you thrive emotionally, cognitively and physicologically
