19.01.2022 Geeta Iyengar's classic work, "Yoga. A Gem for Women", a must have for Iyengar lovers, flew off my shelf, recently, without any provocation! I almost heard Geeta's insistent voice urging me to get down to the business of meeting myself on the mat. Her sequences contained therein, from introductory to intensive, have created structure and solace in these whirling times.I highly recommend. Nothing I love more than having a sequence by Geeta, Iyengar or Prashant, lying beside ...my mat.. helping me find the way inwards. What helps you focus in your yoga practice? If you are looking for support to practice, I'll be starting a weekly online led practice, based on Geeta's sequences. Watch this space! #iyengar #iyengaryogaaustralia #iyengaryoga #yogapracticedaily #yogapractice #yogaasanas #yogaonline #yogainspiration #yogalife #viparitadandasana See more

18.01.2022 When you have stood for what feels like an eternity, Viparita Karani, or legs up the wall, is pure solace! Whether you are there for 5, 10 or 20 minutes, the. inversion of blood flow, with the aid of gravity, down from the legs, pooling into the abdomen and circulating around the heart and lungs, is profoundly regenerative! And good for insomnia..you can try some hip openers whilst there for passive quite exploration..

18.01.2022 Long timing forward bends in today's practice..why I fell in love with Iyengar. So deeply inward..The temple at the Oracle of Delphi had inscribed Know Thyself..Yoga provides us with both the tools and the pathway home.

18.01.2022 Vasistasana 2. When we begin, we learn to pay attention to different parts of our body. As we become more seasoned, we learn not just to work with our physical being, but deeper still, with the stabilizing of our minds, and then watching where our consciousness moves to, and withdraws from, till it can spread everywhere. The vastness inside.

18.01.2022 Join me for yoga this year with 3 online led practice sessions following Geeta Iyengar's sequences in her classic work, Yoga A Gem for Women. Suitable for students with 6 months experience. Weds 13, 20 and 27 January. 6.15am to 8am. Aust EST. $55. DM to book! #yogapose #iyengaryogaaustralia #iyengaryoga #iyengaryogaonline #iyengar

16.01.2022 In my teacher training apprenticeship, I remember doing headstand, directly opposite my teacher, also in headstand. Those four years of training were immensely uncomfortable as much as they transformed my life forever.If you would like to start Yoga, I have been there, the doubt, the uncertainty, the incredulity! Let's talk about how I can help you take that first step to your transformation through this ancient healing art, science and philosophy.

16.01.2022 Yoga is my religion. Nature is my church. #yoga #yogapractice #iyengaryoga #iyengar #ustrasana

16.01.2022 On practicing Yoga. This is a quote from Geeta's Talk in 2009 when she came to Australia. " But yesterday the clue came to me, that really many a time, people do not know, what to practice, how to practice, when to practice..why to practice. That gave me some clue which Patanjali speaks (of) in the very first chapter Samadhi Pada 1: 13... Tatra sthitau yatnah abhyasah ("Practice is the effort to still the fluctuations in the consciousness and then to move it towards silencing it: to attain a constant, steady, tranquil state of mind." Light on the Yoga Sutras of Patanjali B.K.S Iyengar) The very sutra conveys the meaning to us that we have to get established in that "abhyasa", that practice. It is not merely just practice but getting established in that practice. Again, he says..there are efforts, you have to put efforts. It is not an effortless process in that sense...(to) get established in the abhyasa because ..you have to continue your practice, whether we fail or succeed, we get (it) and we don't get, whether it is painful or non painful, yet, we have to practice. Geeta Iyengar. That this ancient art, science and philosophy can benefit our muscles, bones, joints, organs, nerves, circulation and consciousness..to providing a glimpse of the Soul, is profoundly inspired cause to committ to yoga practice.

14.01.2022 Today. Backbends from Dona Holleman's Yoga Syllabus. What an honour is this lineage..Dona originally studied under B.K.S. Iyengar to become an extraordinary teacher in her own right. She taught my teacher, Pixie Lillas, who is world class. What a privilege to continue learning from these titans! #iyengaryoga #iyengar #iyengaryogaaustralia #yoga #yogapractice #yogapose #natarajasana

13.01.2022 So grateful for this practice in my life

13.01.2022 Struggling with your yoga practice? A class is a class. A practice is a practice. Often we confuse the two and don't know what to practice, how to practice and why to practice. After 28 years of practicing, the most important principle, I've found, is consistency in the face of repeated failures, trials and errors. Therein lies the gold! If you are desiring to grow your yoga practice, I offer one on one Yoga coaching, to hold you accountable to your own development as a Yoga practitioner. 5 x45min weekly session package available. Limited time only. AUS.$325.#yogapose #iyengaryoga #pincamayurasana

11.01.2022 Transitions are interesting in and of their own right. As we move into and out of, asana, we feel a certain sense of rhythm, a balance of movement and pause. #sarvangasana #iyengaryogaonline #padmasanainsarvangasana #iyengarmethod #iyengaryoga #yogapractice #yogapose #yogainspiration

11.01.2022 Our Friday zoom intensive is focussing on hip openers as a gateway to advanced poses. But wait, the beauty of Iyengar is this. The benefits of asana exist at each and every level of the pose, according to Geeta Iyengar. In fact, the simpler poses have extraordinary capacity for evolution, within and without. I hope you can join me for deeper dives into the healing health giving beauty of Iyengar. DM to book your spot today.

11.01.2022 Yoga is for everyone. Office workers, parents, teens, athletes and elders. Whoever you are and where ever you may find yourself, yoga is only a wall and a breath away! Here are some examples of shoulder openers to the wall to open your chest, from the back of your body, to the front and sternum ascending to ignite your vitality!

10.01.2022 "Long uninterrupted practice in the face of repeated failures.." A quote from Guruji that inspired me more than any other. It's the wobble, the ungainly exit from a pose, the harried breath, which give exactly the feedback we need, to create coherence. Yoga, as my teacher said, is like a big billboard of our faults! And yet, it is also the most compassionate guide, to deeper integration of our awareness. If you would like to work with me, I have two private weekly yoga coaching places available plus, another 5 week Yoga intensive, starting Friday week. 6.15am to 7.45am. $125 AUS. General level. Places limited. DM Anastasia direct to secure your spot.

DM Anastasia today. #iyengaryoga #yoga #yogapractice #yogalife

07.01.2022 In the pause before dropping back..It's in how we enter asana, physically, energetically and psychologically, that our experience of the pose is established..When practice is in that flow state, I feel like I am dancing. To help you committ to your own yoga practice, limited places are available for the Friday Intensive. 6.15am to 7.45am. $75 and Personal Yoga coaching sessions. 5x 45min sessions. $325. DM Anastasia to book today!

07.01.2022 Balancing poses are more than literally about balance, as my teacher, Pixie, said. They connect us to our centre, to something deeply intrinsic. Rooting down with palm and foot whilst reaching upwards and outwards. Visvamitrasana, elusive to master, beautiful to experience, if only for a moment! If you'd like to express your own full potential through Yoga, I offer online coaching packages. 5x 45min sessions. $325 AUS.

03.01.2022 Playing our edges in Yoga. Learning to stay in asana for extended timings, is important as it is when our negative thoughts, emotions, physical imbalances, discomfort and difficulties, can emerge. When we stay with these and not avoid these or distract ourselves from them, we develop self knowledge, self awareness and, ultimately, self compassion. Why do you love your Yoga? #iyengaryoga #iyengaryogaonline #iyengar #iyengaryogaaustralia #yogapractice #yogamentor #urdhvaprasaritaekapadasana

02.01.2022 There are times we can practice uninterrupted, bathed in sunlight, space and quiet. I savour those times. I equally, surrender to noisy, disrupted, too short a practice. Nothing ventured into and explored, when on our mats, is wasted, whatever it's duration, whatever is happening around us. As B.K.S Iyengar said, "You can not look outward, to look within." #iyengaryogaonline #iyengaryoga #yogainspiration #yogapractice #sirsasana

01.01.2022 Today is Gurujis 102nd Birthday. Here is an excerpt from Guruji's 70th birthday message, from the "the brown book", aka "70 Glorious Years of Yogacharya B.K.S Iyengar." "In a non violent asana, there is neither aggression nor laxity, neither overdoing nor underdoing..both overdoing and underdoing will result in the premature death of cells. This study and balance of body cells, leads to the preservation of energy and to see the self in the cells as well as with the asana....." With inexplicable gratitude for the gift Guruji's teachings.

01.01.2022 Today's practice. Natarajasana pose. Dancer's pose.

01.01.2022 I am simply passionate about the healing Art of Yoga.
