Where Did January Go?!

I know, I know, the newsletter is late.  I’m going to blame that on the following things: The Australian Open Tennis.  Writing and launching my 4-week Beginners Yoga Program.  The 5K Foam Fest.  Preparing my two girls to start Year 7 and Year 12, both insanely big experiences.  

But if I’m truly honest? I didn’t make the time. I was tired, busy, distracted, and I procrastinated with other tasks instead of writing to all of you. I’m sure you know what that’s like, right? But yeah, it’s on me.

Now, allow me to thank all the beautiful souls for making the time to show up to yoga classes already! It’s been so lovely connecting again, sharing stories and anecdotes, and getting our bodies breathing and moving with yogic practices.

If you’re yet to return (or to try one of my classes for the first time) I believe I will see you when the time is right. Perhaps, like me, you’ve been settling kids into the new school year. Or work has ramped up. Or you’ve had other commitments that needed sorting first. It’s all good. I’m here for you when you’re ready. 😊

Join Us at the next 5K Foam Fest

Saturday 28th November 2026

Look at how much fun we had!  It would be even more fun to get a bigger team together for the next round of muddy maneuvering and foamy frolicking.  Tickets have been released for the next Melbourne event, and this time it’s being held just down the road from my home, at Caribbean Park (the old Caribbean Gardens site) on Ferntree Gully Road in Scoresby.

Even better, with every sign up through my referral link, I’ll earn $5! 💸

This year, I’ve named the team Foamy Yogi Family as I’ve already signed up myself, Charlie, and my son, Hamilton, who ran with us in 2024 and 2025.  I hope to have more yogis and more family members (yours and mine) Join us for the next run.  Well, we walk it.  Gotta conserve energy for the obstacles!

TICKETS ARE CURRENTLY HALF PRICE. They increase in stages as we get closer to the event, so if you think you might want to get involved try not to wait too long before committing.

When you buy your tickets make sure you’re signed up to our team FOAMY YOGI FAMILY with the password TAYOGA.  Try to get a heat time as close to 9:30am as possible so we can enjoy most of the course together.

***  Please note there is no expectation or pressure to fundraise for the event.

NEW Wednesday Evening Class

This week marked the start of my 4-week Beginners Yoga Program with five new and enthusiastic yogis feeling the benefits of foundational asana, breath, and mindfulness practices after just the first session!  Their curiosity and willingness to learn was wonderful to behold.  There were questions, giggles, sighs of release and a reluctance to come off the mat - all great responses, in my opinion. I’m looking forward to the next three weeks with these gorgeous souls. 💙

This program is now closed for booking. But if you or someone you know was keen to start learning what this “yoga thing” is all about, I’m so pleased to announce my new group class beginning in March…

BEGINNERS FLOW
5:30pm Wednesdays
at Amrita Yoga, Dingley Village

Beginners Flow will follow the general format of a standard 1-hour yoga class but with fewer poses turned into “mini flows” to be repeated several times so that students can slowly and safely build their capacity and confidence week on week. Learning the foundations takes time. From developing a more efficient and robust breath, to learning how to move, balance and hold your body in space, to releasing the battle with one’s mind… it’s an ongoing process. Let’s step our way through tenderly, bit by bit.
