24.01.2022 When you notice that you’re not present, either your brain is trying to predict the future so you can survive it or its ruminating on the past. You can gently bring your awareness to this present moment now. Use your breath as a guide. Come join me on the mat. All online from the comfort of your own home. * Mon 7:30-8:20 am ...

23.01.2022 The most exciting part about dance group Show Ponies is the working towards a performance on stage, under the lights. Someone asked me what is it about that experience that has people do it over and over - sometimes in the face of stage fright and anxiety. Lady Gaga puts it so well: We live for the applause. But what does this actually mean? It’s the exhilaration of expressing oneself and being witnessed by others. It’s the divine communion of performer and audience togethe...r, that support, the cheering and championing from friends and family. It’s the victory of having broken through your comfort zone and done it in spite of your fears. It’s the being in a group and feeling the energy rise together. And it’s dancing- moving your body to music and expressing yourself in ways you don’t get to in every day life. The Show Ponies Kylie Season starts tonight.

21.01.2022 Yoga saved my life. When I was 21, I couldn’t dance anymore. I had chronic fatigue, fibromyalgia, panic attacks, no home, estranged from my family and was dealing with my identity in the world as a young lesbian and feminist activist. Sound familiar? Thankfully, a friend’s sister took me on a beginner’s yoga intensive at the Clifton Hill Yoga Studio @cliftonhillyogastudio ... As I lay on the yoga mat, staring up at the ceiling, every breath restored me to my ‘Self’. I began to feel back in my body and connected again. 20 years later, I’ve continued to practice yoga with many different teachers and now teach others online. I’ve learned that with each moment, there’s a new breath to breathe and everything passes. I’ve disappeared all conditions listed above, including restoring my relationship with every single family member. My days are filled with so much love. I know my place in the world, perhaps cut from a different cloth, but still a gift to the world. Yoga has been that gift to me. Eternally thankful and full of appreciation, I promise to keep practicing. #yoga #yogasaveslives #doyourpracticeandalliscoming

11.01.2022 One of the things people discover for themselves in a regular yoga practice is the discipline to show up to the mat. We call this ‘tapas’. Not only is tapas the firey kind of heat that gets generated in the body by moving through the postures, it’s also the burning enthusiasm that you take with you off the mat. Tapas means that- burning enthusiasm. What part of your life could benefit from a renewed burning enthusiasm?... #yoga #mindfulness #wellbeing

10.01.2022 One of my online yoga students says yes! It does! Before starting yoga, I thought that my body was just acting age appropriate with a few well earned aches. What I found out was that I just needed to take care of it in another way. Yoga has restored and improved my overall flexibility, it’s given my body the space it needed to align back to its natural state. Come join me on the mat.

08.01.2022 Many of us think that yoga us for those flexible bendy type of people. Actually, flexibility is not a pe-requisite of yoga, nor is it the purpose of yoga. It’s a by-product. So what is the purpose of yoga? Asana, the physical practice of yoga and what most of the west thinks of as yoga, is actually simply one arm of the 8 limbs of yoga as distinguished by Patanjali. It’s purpose is to ensure we can sit comfortably and relatively pain-free for the practice of meditation- anot...her whole arm of the 8 limbs of yoga. Do you practice meditation and are you able to sit pain-free? Are you able to sit comfortably on the floor? That old adage, ‘Move it, or lose it’ is true. Zara Lawson #yoga #meditation #wellbeing

07.01.2022 After reading The Soul of Money by Lynne Twist, I was inspired to true up my business finances with my values. 10% of all proceeds from my dance group Show Ponies goes to The Hunger Project who’s work empowers local people to end hunger and the cycle of poverty. I was personally touched by Rumi’s story who’s school friends intervened in the child marriage that would have taken her out of her education and ended her dream of becoming a doctor. Show Ponies is an opportunity ...to prove that you can have fun, find your strut and make a difference at the same time. #makingadifference #showponies #dance #fun
