New Yoga Premises. 3/394 Grey St Hamilton East

Well Folks, we're almost there. The new studio is taking shape thanks to Peter at the helm and an incredible volunteering from working-yogi-bees. Here's a snap of progress. If you are interested in attending more classes you will want to know about the timetable, email me and I'll send you a pdf: katie@sunsalute.co.nz So that's what we've been up to! What we done next. ;-)

Loving Autumn

Loving Autumn and loving my Sunday. Thought I'd just post this photo of my kitchen table as I tap and scratch across my keyboard spending the hours studying, eating, reading and doing just a tiny bit of tidying.....and also getting to better know my computer and mobile phone's relationship. Their Bluetoothedness - so that I might upload photos. It's a match made in heaven! And now I have no excuse for letting this blogsite be so image starved!

What's coming up? Peter Sanson workshop at Fiona Links's studio in Taupo: www.livingyoga.co.nz this weekend, April 1, 2, 3. A trip to Melbourne 8th April till 19th April. Can't wait. Peter McNaughton will take all Ashtanga classes while I'm away, though I'm sorry to report all other classes will be cancelled. And for the long weekend of Easter there will be no classes. Time for a break anyway.

Namaste

A New Year of Yoga

Welcome back to yoga. Ashtanga and Hatha classes resume this year in Hamilton East on February 7th. This year I'd like to introduce a new Yoga and Book Club. Join and receive once a month an excerpt from a book or an article on yoga to discuss at the next Saturday morning session. The Saturday morning session will be a Mysore style class (with Ashtanga practitioners practicing their sequence and non-Ashtanga yogis performing 10 - 20 sunsalutes, a series of slow and gentle floor stretches and then a meditation sit and rest. After the class we'll heat up the chai, stoke up the stove top espresso, put out a plate of cardamon bickies (thanks Robb) and sit and discuss the past months reading. Stay tuned.
