Valley Vinyasa

Flow Yoga classes Mondays and Thursdays, 5:30-6:45pm.
Rates are: $10 or $8 with Student ID or Community Services Card.
Eftpos available.

Classes will be led by Carla Mulder, an experienced practitioner and certified instructor. Carla completed her teacher training in Indonesia in 2017. She has been teaching Flow classes at a central city studio since. One reason for Carla starting her own classes in Northeast Valley is to make yoga more accessible to folks living in the suburbs. She appreciates that some people are intimidated by the studio environment, having been one of those people herself at one time. Carla welcomes anyone from beginner to long time practitioner.

What is Flow Yoga?
Also referred to as Vinyasa, it is a dynamic form of yoga linking postures together in a flowing manner. Yoga is often considered a passive activity, but vinyasa builds heat, challenges core strength and stamina. Expect to sweat a bit in class. Vinyasa is a moving form of meditation, with balancing postures challenging one’s ability to concentrate. It is an opportunity to stretch and tone muscles and also find a sense of inner calm.

The general format of a flow class is as follows:
Settling on the mat and focussing on calm breathing
A gentle warm up
Standing postures building up to a challenging pose or two
A floor sequence, which includes back bending and twists
Savasana, or full body relaxation

What to bring along to class?
A towel, comfortable clothing (t shirt and leggings or loose pants), a water bottle and your own mat (some mats, straps and yoga blocks will be available for use in class).
