25.01.2022 Folks, we are so close to getting back to real life yoga! We are working around the clock to get the new space ready for you and we’ll keep you updated once we know our expected reopening date. Fingers crossed for sometime next week if all goes well!

24.01.2022 Guys, good news. We are just over 2 weeks into lockdown 2.0 which means (if all goes well) we are 1/3 of the way through! HOW GOOD. Keep on keepin' on crew, we've got this. We’ve put together some resources that have been helping us live through lockdown which we thought some of you might find useful :) If you are subscribed to our mailing list check your inbox, you should have received an email from us this morning. You can also access these resources via the below link :):) https://mailchi.mp/363b119a5065/lockdownlivin

23.01.2022 Good news legends. From next Monday (Nov 23) our class capacity can increase to 18!!! SO happy to welcome more of you into the space, hopefully restrictions continue to ease Don’t be scared of waitlists either folks! If a class you want is full jump on the waitlist as spots have been opening up. Just be a good sport and cancel with us much notices as possible if you can no longer attend :)...

23.01.2022 Hells yeah regional VIC! We are so pumped to see our beloved Gtown reopening this week. We had everything crossed for yoga studios to be able to reopen too, but it looks like we have to hang in there a little longer team. We have looked into running weekly outdoor Yoga classes and whilst we initially thought we could make this work, it isn't looking like it will be viable for us to do so. The unpredictability of Spring weather in Geelong and the wind on Eastern Beach i...s a major factor, along with the cap of 10 students per class and therefore the management of waitlists, which as we know gets really tricky. We are working on some other ideas though! No doubt many of you are craving some community connection (we certainly are), so we are looking into running some one off classes/events.. We'll update you once we have figured out a plan of attack! If you would like to send through any feedback or suggestions we would love to hear from you :) See more

23.01.2022 Community Yoga is back! Join us every Saturday for a community focused, donation based class with a graduate 200hr yoga teacher. Kicking off this week! ...

Please pre book your spot via Mindbody and bring a cash donation along (around $10 if you can). 100% of your donations will be sent to local charity and community groups, providing some support to good folk doing good things See more

21.01.2022 What we are focusing on is remaining calm and controlling what we can control. Until expert advice advises otherwise we will continue to practice yoga in these uncertain times to stay healthy both physically and mentally. We have ramped up our cleaning regime and will not be providing any hands on adjustments in classes. ... We ask you wash your hands thoroughly before and after class with the antibacterial soap provided. If you are unwell, look after yourself and be considerate of others. We hope to see you soon for a healthy dose of yoga and much needed good vibes. the Good Folk team xxx See more

19.01.2022 Farewell 2020, what a ride! Thank you, good folk, for coming on this journey with us, you are magic This quote hit home for us today as we reflect on the challenges, lessons and growth experienced by so many of us this year. Holy smokes 2020 you’ve ditched out some shit, but we still standing ... "The art of living is based on rhythm - on give and take, ebb and flow, light and dark, life and death. By acceptance of all aspects of life, good and bad, right and wrong, yours and mine, the static, defensive life, which is what most people are cursed with, is converted into a dance, 'the dance of life,' metamorphosis. One can dance to sorrow or to joy; one can even dance abstractly. But the point is that, by the mere act of dancing, the elements which compose it are transformed; the dance is an end in itself, just like life. The acceptance of the situation, any situation, brings about a flow, a rhythmic impulse towards self-expression. To relax is, of course, the first thing a dancer has to learn. It is also the first thing a patient has to learn when he confronts the analyst. It is the first thing any one has to learn in order to live. It is extremely difficult, because it means surrender, full surrender." Henry Miller, The Wisdom of the Heart Amazing image by our pal @bodieroberts Now framed and up in the studio for you all to enjoy Have a Happy New Year legends xxx See more

15.01.2022 Hey legends A few updates from us on doing the right thing with waitlists and cancellations + some new classes going live next week! Start using class waitlists! Via the Mindbody app. At the moment it’s more than likely that you will land yourself a mat, so be ready to practice!... Keep an eye on emails for notification on being added into a class or view the Mindbody app to see if you are Booked or Waitlisted. We need to step up our class cancellation game. Some of you are nailing this, others are a B + (at best). We need you all to commit to cancelling any class you can’t attend as soon as possible. Be a good sport and do the right thing! If you cancel within 2hrs of the class starting you will forfeit for your pass. For our members, penalties/fines go against the Good Folk way of life so we reaaaally don’t want to implement these. Please do your best at cancelling well in advance. New class time! 6.15am Tuesday + Thursday and if numbers continue to build we hope to add more on soon :) See more

14.01.2022 Firstly, with heavy hearts we are saying farewell to @thebeachhousegeelong as the home of Good Folk Yoga. As we all know, 2020 has been a year of curve balls and unfortunately the impacts of COVID mean it is no longer viable for the upstairs space to be utilised for Yoga. We say a massive thank you to the Beach House team for helping us bring the Good Folk dream to life, and we can’t wait to see what this next chapter has in store for us all. But we also have some GREAT ne...ws... We are relocating to our very own rockin’ new studio space at 138 Myers St, Geelong! Located right next door to a big carpark (woohoo) and for all of you coffee lovers, we've got the delightful @neckofthewoodscafe next door too. We are busy renovating the space at the moment and hope to be ready in time to re-open when we receive the green light from the Premier, it is expected that he will make an announcement on when Gyms and Yoga studios can open in the coming week.

08.01.2022 Ok Good Folk fam. So as you all know, from Monday we will all be wearing masks when outside our homes. The DHHS have advised mask wearing is not necessary for ‘strenuous exercise’ which causes you to be out of breath, however guidelines specific for yoga classes have not been released which makes it a little tricky to determine a policy for the studio. Given the information we currently have access to we have implemented the following as of Monday morning’s classes: All... students and teachers must be wearing a mask upon entry to the studio Masks can only be removed once you arrive on your mat and must be put back on after Savasana Students must wear a mask for all Yin Yoga classes (we do not classify this class as strenuous) Teachers will not need to wear masks to teach as per the DHHS guidelines, and they will of course be keeping their 1.5m distance from students Please continue to keep your 1.5m distance from other students at all times, sanitise your hands and stay home if you are feeling at all unwell :) We know some of you will feel more comfortable wearing a mask to practice in and that is more than ok! We will continue to monitor further announcements and will keep you informed if there are any further updates. As you know we have lots of space in the studio so our mats will be spread even further apart to help you feel comfortable and safe while you practice with us. Thank you all for your patience and adaptability, you guys rock See more

Shiatsu style assists, consisting of light pressure applied along specific points, will be incorporated into the Yin Yoga postures.

05.01.2022 Overuse of the utilitarian mind creates a chronic narrowing of awareness which detracts from the joy of life, reduces performance and limits our capacity to release stress and to heal. When we remain in narrow-focused attention, constant thinking plays an exaggerated and dominating role in our mind. The narrow focus of the utilitarian mind, when overused, can also distance us from feelings of compassion and empathy; distance us from others and from nature. We get stuck in ...our head. This is one reason why so many people in our contemporary world, despite advances in transport and communication, feel isolated and anxious. -An extract from ‘Meditation: An In-Depth Guide’ by Ian Gawler and Paul Besdon, the creators of the MBSM practice. We can’t wait to dive into the depths of the mind with @stephdierich on Thursday evening when our next 4 week course kicks off Update to this post: we are now completely sold out! See more
