Style of Yoga: Gentle Flow (very easy class suited for beginners)

We are walking 5km through the Nature Reserve in Woronora River. The trail starts from Thorpe Road and follows the water pipe up the hill. We then take a circuit walk crossing Forbes Creek Trail through a mix of fire trails and smaller single tracks. There are some hills involved but nothing too strenuous. (Leave your matt at the hall before the hike, you don't need to carry it!).

Post hike at 9am we will arrive back at the yoga hall for 45 minutes of Gentle Flow - Vinyassa style. The class will be a slower and cooler pace style of yoga but no less of a challenge. You will be taught the foundations of a vinyasa flow practice including physical alignment, core stability, breath work and how to bring your mind body breath into present moment awareness.

After yoga we are providing a healthy morning tea with fruits, fresh healthy cakes, dips and more. We cater for vegetarians, gluten free and other dietary requirements.

We will notify you if there are changes to your trip. Please pack a wet weather jacket or even an umbrella!

What do I wear?

Please wear comfortable walking clothes and inclosed shoes. Please also bring a hat and sunglasses. If it's hot it will be great to go for a swim, so swimmers is a good choice. It is best to wear tights for yoga that can bend and stretch.

I have never done yoga before, will it be hard?

Yvette is creating a very beginner style class for the group. You do not have to hold every pose. Think of this class like a great stretch after an hour of walking.
