旅先でヨガのレッスンを受けるのが最近の旅の楽しみのひとつ
シドニーは健康意識も高く、ヨガスタジオも豊富
迷った結果、雰囲気の素敵なスタジオ2つでレッスンを受けました
1つ目はhumming puppy
入り口の扉を開けるまでだいぶドキドキしたけれど、階段を上がると入り口からは想像ができなかった素敵な空間が広がっています
スタジオは40人くらい入れそうな大箱で、かなりの暗さの中で心地よい音楽やクリスタルボウルの音が流れ、独自の世界観が確立されていました
参加した朝7:30からのFlow&Restoreクラスは前半は四つ這いの姿勢中心のゆったりフロー、後半はボルスターを使ったリリース、最後に爆音のクリスタルボウルを聴きながらシャバーサナの構成
シャバーサナが心地よすぎてあやうく寝落ちしそうになりました
ウェアもおしゃれでスタイルのよい女性が多く参加していましたが、1人だけいたおじさまがほとんど動かずチャイルドポーズや寝転んでお休みしてました
先生も全く意に介さず、好きにさせたまま声をかけないところにも、人それぞれをよしとする自由さで居心地の良さを感じさせてくれました
終わった後のお茶のセッティングも独自のブレンドのハーブティーも一貫しておしゃれ
こんなスタジオを日本に作りたいと思いながら、完璧に作り上げられた世界観を最後まで満喫しました
Taking yoga lessons on my travels has been one of my favorite things to do!
Sydney is a very health-conscious city, and there are plenty of yoga studios.
After much deliberation, I decided to take a lesson at two studios with a great atmosphere!
The first one was humming puppy!
I was quite nervous until I opened the door, but once I went up the stairs, I found a wonderful space that I could not have imagined from the entrance!
The studio was a large box that could accommodate about 40 students, and in the pretty dark, pleasant music and crystal bowl sounds were flowing, establishing a unique ideology.
The first half of the Flow & Restore class I attended consisted of a relaxed flow with a focus on crawling on all fours, followed by a release using a bolster in the second half, and finally shavasana while listening to the sound of crystal bowls.
Shavasana was so comfortable that I almost fell asleep.
There were many stylish women in the class, but there was only one man who hardly moved and was in child's pose or lying down to rest.
The teacher didn't care at all and let the participants do as they liked, and the fact that she didn't call on them made me feel comfortable with the freedom that allows each person to do as they really want.
The tea setting and the original blend of herbal tea after the class was oconsistently stylish!
I enjoyed the perfectly created atmosphere, wishing I could create a studio like this in Japan.
