About the class
Maintaining a regular yoga practice is beneficial physically, mentally and emotionally. With patience and practice you will discover that you can go beyond what you thought was possible.
Karen teaches Hatha Yoga with some Vinyasa Flow elements. Ha-tha means sun-moon acknowledging the sweet union of opposites. Hatha yoga consists of yoga postures practised at a pace accessible to all, including pranayama for healing and well-being. Vinyasa Flow is characterised by smooth transitions from one pose to another cultivating present moment awareness. A guided relaxation is included at the end of every class to wind down and rejuvenate.
General classes are suitable for all levels, from beginner to experienced. During the class, options are given and yoga props, such as blocks, straps and blankets are used to cater for students' varying needs and abilities.
Yoga mats, blocks, straps and blankets are provided if you are not able to bring your own. A yoga mat is essential for every class but other props are optional. You may wish to bring your own towel or blanket for added comfort.
Narangba Community Hall is spacious with timber flooring, ceiling fans, toilets and a car park.
The class has been running since 2009 and runs throughout the year with the exception of a two or three week break over the Christmas period. Occasionally, the class may be cancelled or moved to the smaller Dance Room below the Main Hall on direction from the Encircle Hall Co-ordinator to make way for other hall hirers, or due to an unforeseen circumstance. If this occurs, notifications will be provided at the very earliest opportunity. A notification will be posted on the Feel Good Yoga Facebook page and this website. Please "like" the Feel Good Yoga Facebook page if you would like to be informed of any changes.
Karen's class is designed for adults, however, children over the age of 12 years old who are interested in yoga are welcome to participate under parental supervision. Yoga classes for children specifically can be found at http://www.findyoga.com.au/.
Ensure you wear comfortable clothes and do not practise on a full stomach. It is not recommended to do yoga immediately after eating a meal, however a light snack or breakfast before class is fine.
If you have any injuries or health conditions, you should seek medical advice before doing any form of physical exercise, including yoga. Please inform Karen if you have a medical condition which will affect your practice. During the class, you are encouraged to listen to your body and rest when you need to.
Classes are casual, so there is usually no need to book in advance. Just come by and join us when you are free. If you are new to the class, please arrive a little earlier to introduce yourself and complete a form.
