Oja Yoga believes in the concept that movement is medicine... not only for the body but the mind and soul too. Known by the ancient yogi's for years and backed by modern day science now. These classes like to cruise in the slow lane, slowing down and softening through the breath, synchronising the breath with movement. More like a moving meditation and internal massage and a sweet spot to melt into the mat. Comprising a balanced blend of gentle hatha, vin-yin, slow flow, somatic movement (asana), breath-work (pranayama/ kriyas), guided meditation (Dhyāna) with a touch of yoqi and mindful mantra. All levels are welcome and supported here! Mats and props are provided. You can register for one off classes as you please which are $20 cash/concession or $25 card/ full.

NEW CLASS BY DONATION :
This is the 'Upward Spiral' Class and catch up. This is a by donation, inclusive, community class to support those who are actively seeking or already cultivating a lifestyle that grows healthy habits. This is another humble, yet empowering avenue to support you along the way.
You may be sober curious or are in the maintenance stage of recovery finding ways to make sobriety more sustainable. You may be wanting to shift out of another kind of limiting behaviour that has been holding you back, like binge eating, binge watching series or toxic 'situationships' or negative self speak...
Whatever your poison is (or was), this is a safe space to shake it all off, exhale it all out, move through it and connect with your true self as well as a collective of like minded people. The idea is to co-create an onward and upward spiral through a yogi and mental health lens. A bit of an alternative to an AA group, however not limited or exclusive to associating with being an alcoholic (or being anonymous). You are not alone.
The opposite of addiction is not sobriety, it is connection.
If you have been feeling isolated (or bored) in your quest for a healthier or happier life, this is exactly why this group has been formed. We are a JOMO group celebrating the 'Joy Of Missing Out' - together! As opposed to FOMO (Fear Of Missing Out). We come together to inspire, encourage, empower and support ourselves and each-other. After our themed yoga (following a yama or niyama of the sutras each session) and purposed breath-work and meditation; we have a guided (and uplifting) closing circle where you can share as much or as little as you like, with the option to stick around for tea and chats afterwards.
To reserve your space please message via Instagram or WhatsApp and bring a cash donation on the day!
SATURDAYS - 10 AM
1 HR Somatic/ Yoga Movement, Breathing Techniques, Mantra followed by TEA and a Recovery/ Share Circle.
PRE-BOOKINGS ARE ESSENTIAL. Leave a message via instagram or text 0417937373 to reserve your spot and please bring a cash donation on the day to support the cause.
BOOK A WORKSHOP FOR YOUR HENS/ B'DAY OR BUSINESS GROUP:
Your occasion might be part of your hens party, a birthday for yourself or a friend, a corporate or business event, a family/ friend vacay, a specialty group or for a well-ness retreat you're hosting and need a little something extra. I love to cater for all walks of life with different needs and am honoured to hold space in these special life moments.
All of the themed workshops (choose from one that suits you below) consist of a blissful blend of asana (movement), pranayama (breath-work), mantra (sound vibration/ healing), dyhana (meditation) and yoga nidra (deep nervous system reset with sankalpa /solid goal setting, chakra activation and detoxifying purification).
Then there is the other component of these workshops that set them apart from your usual yoga experience and make them extra special, whilst value adding to your life. You can expect yourself to feel fully engaged in learning eye opening and game changing yoga theory and inspiring yogic philosophy delivered to you in a way made applicable to you. Ancient wisdom gifts that keep on giving meets modern day life science that you can apply to enrich the quality of your day to day.
These workshops are much more than 'just yoga' and give you life changing take away tools, beyond being on the mat, that you can add to your executive functioning, self development and self care 'tool' kits.
They are engaging and curious containers that have been carefully curated for an elevating and empowering experience and are delivered with big bhakti love and are jam packed with gold. They can run deep however you walk away feeling light and yoga lit. A perfect way to celebrate your special occasion.

1:1 PROGRAMS:
1;1: Personalised Prescription Yoga Tailor Made To Benefit Your Unique/ Specific Needs.. Bear in mind that Yoga is much more than just the asana/ movement. In fact it is really only 15%. This is an all encompassing in depth intake into YOU- through the lens of ancient tried and tested Yoga philosophy & traditional Ayurvedic lifestyle practices. We are also calling upon our own in-built healing modalities and our bodies natural intelligence. This can last you your life-time as the gift that keeps on giving. Whilst we do cover correct postures and alignment and how each pose has a purpose behind it with its own set of benefits, this course is nothing to do with how 'flexi or sexy' you are in yoga and has everything to do with how you feel. It is a self development program empowering you in prioritising self-care. It is designed with love to lead us out of any stagnation or suffering and dis-ease and pave the path towards optimising our health and tracking towards a more sattvic state of homeostasis/ equilibrium. This gives space for us to live with curiosity and contentment (santosha) and fulfil our true natures purpose, stripping us back to our soul or heart space. You can expect to be taking a deep dive into the five pillars of life (Kosha's/ Layers/ Sheaths) that make us who we are from the gross to subtle qualities and components. We use this wisdom as our roadmap to self shakti (self empowerment) and bhakti (self love/devotion). A journey of guided self inquiry and prompted reflection through a yogi lens. From self awareness stems a richer understanding of our tapestry and then we have the opportunity for welcoming and activating growth or healthy change. We check in with ourselves as to what Dosha/s (Prakruti; Individual inherent constitution) are dominating and how we relate to and show up in the world and how we can better navigate and harmonise our way in it whilst staying true to our path. You will discover whether you are dominant in Pita, Kapha or Vata and receive a valuable blueprint to living with more quality of life. As we explore these Ayurvedic lifestyle insights, you will be developing your dinacharya and ratricharya (morning and evening routines aimed to set you up for success) with gentle, achievable applications, practices and rituals. We look at the fundamental keys of living a balanced (Sattvic) life through the lens of the three Guna's (Life qualities /innate nature) so that we may spend our time and energy in a wiser way that serves our highest self and nurtures our purpose. If you don't actually know your purpose that is absolutely ok! I have got you with that one...
