There are only 7 days until the early bird discount ends on our upcoming online yoga teacher training, so here is a gentle prompt to those of you considering you might join us.
Many of the people who have done a yoga teacher training with us weren’t sure that they were ready.
When embarking on yoga teacher training, doubts like “ I m not flexible enough, advanced enough. or spiritual enough” can come up.
Yet being a yoga teacher people come back to is far more about the warmth, consistency and inclusivity of your space and the classes you create. You don’t have to have a guru or go to India. The people who often gain the most from teacher training are not necessarily the people performing the most complex postures. They are the people who genuinely love yoga and feel curious to understand it more deeply.
Everyone who joins us brings their own gifts of experience and love of yoga, but it’s actually commitment to the process of training that makes you ready to teach. One of the things we feel strongly about is that yoga cannot be learned intellectually alone. Practice itself is a central part of the training process. Unlike many other trainings on offer these days, you will have unlimited free access to our online and in studio classes at Balanced Practice Yoga and Yoga Bellingen for the training duration, connecting our online, Sydney and Bellingen communities. The value of these classes is over $1100 and they serve as an important part of your yoga teacher training, helping you build knowledge through embodiment and integration of your learnings.Most importantly, we wanted to create a course that supports people as individuals — not simply producing teachers, but helping yoga become a more integrated and meaningful part of everyday life.

Our EARLYBIRD offer ends May 31.
Use the code EARLYBIRD to save $200.

If you have been quietly considering teacher training, this week is the time to start that chapter.

VINYASA JOURNEY THROUGH THE CHAKRAS

We are so happy to have begin her own regular class at Warriewood Surf Club.
Iolanda is a heart-led yoga teacher and somatic guide offering gentle and energetic embodied practices that nurture self-connection, emotional healing, and inner calm. Rooted in the belief that the body holds our stories, her classes combine mindful movement, breath, and stillness to create supportive spaces for release and renewal. Her approach blends body awareness and relaxation to support overall wellbeing—inviting students to slow down, soften, and reconnect with themselves.

Especially suited to those seeking balance, calm, and a deeper sense of connection, Iolanda teaches both dynamic, high-energy vinyasa flows and slower-paced, soulful yin-inspired practices. Her classes at Warriweood Surf Club are guided with warmth and authenticity, inviting students to move, breathe, and reconnect with their inner rhythm. Each class offers a space to unwind, recharge, and feel more grounded, open, and present.

You’ve shown up for everyone else. Now it’s your turn.
Some places offer a break. This is something different.
Join Liz and Amelia March 15-21st 2027 at Neelashwar Hermitage for a week long India retreat.
Nestled in the heart of Kerala where the backwaters gently meet the ocean, our luxury yoga retreat is designed for those who understand that fulfilment begins with deep restoration.
This is not an escape from your life — it’s an investment in the clarity, energy, and presence that elevate every part of it.
Expect elevated yoga instruction, personal wellness experiences, and the kind of unhurried luxury that reminds you what it feels like to be fully alive. Sun-warmed mornings on the mat. Nourishment that heals from the inside out. Evenings that belong entirely to you.
Allow us to share Neelashwar Hermitage with you for a week of yoga and Ayurveda, and beautiful curated local experiences including a houseboat cruise, sunset concerts and cultural walks. You cannot pour from an empty vessel. Let yourself be truly restored.
Dm us for booking details.

Sequencing intelligent and creative yoga classes is a subtle art that evolves with practice and intentional refinement. Yoga is a lifetime practice, so you don’t need to pack everything you know into one class.
A great yoga class will always cultivate a journey beyond the mundane, and beyond the ordinary workings of the body and mind. In our workshop this Sunday, Amelia and Liz will share their sequencing wisdom, give you a clear framework for how they build classes so that you can offer a yogic experience in every class, cultivate the kind of transformational journey that can bring “a-ha” moments and surprise achievements whilst still nurturing your students with careful planning, providing choice and guided pathways.
You will leave with two complete class sequences that you can use in your classes - one that is provided, together with a practice video, and discussed in detail and the other that the workshop students will design together, with our guidance and feedback. So we are really going to get into detail on the process of planning and editing a class, together, bit by bit, with lots of time for questions and ideas.
This will help people refine their class planning process, potentially build a yoga course and help you confidently teach your students key skills for more challenging postures to achieve over time.
It’s a supportive and interactive workshop and we can’t wait to share it on Sunday 8th February. Join us online 3pm - 6pm AEDT. Pm or book via the website/ story link.

JOIN SENIOR YOGA TEACHER AMELIA DISSPAIN AND YOGA THERAPIST AND PHYSIOTHERAPIST LIZ BENNETT ON A 7 NIGHT RETREAT IN NORTHERN PORTUGAL

I’m really excited to be joining the team on Saturday mornings at their new Newport studio, which is just downstairs from .
Pilates and yoga are a lifelong study & practice for me, woven into my life and my physiotherapy practice. My passion for teaching comes from the gratitude I have for my teachers and their craft. Yoga has helped me heal and find resilience through many injuries ( mostly from mountain biking!) through tough years of being a carer and business owner, through motherhood and through my 40’s. Yoga is transmitted through techniques - the asana and pranayama ( poses and breath work) as well as more subtle tools for the mind, which derive from the ancient philosophy and energetic secrets of yoga- this is what is transmitted from teacher to teacher. I can’t wait to share the beautiful tools of yoga with the Feels community in my Soothe and Unwind classes starting THIS SATURDAY AT 10:30AM!!🧘‍♀️ Hope to see some of you there ❤️

Jenny and Liz invite our community and friends to gather together to celebrate the full moon in the beautiful space of Warriewood Surf Club on Sunday September 14th 6:00 - 7:30pm.
You will be guided through gentle flowing yoga, meditation, yoga nidra, and deep relaxation.

Om Chandraya Namaha is the moon mantra.
It calls us back into perspective when life becomes confusing and helps us see things more clearly. It sharpens our intellect and calms our nervous system to restore balance & equanimity. Just as the moon appears to be in darkness throughout the month, our minds get clouded by the unfolding of our lives. But the moon is not in darkness. It’s simply our perspective. May the glow of this mantra lead you back to the truth that always lies within you.
The practice is suitable for everyone and all are welcome.
You are invited afterwards to gather together for chai and healthy snacks. Bookings via website + story links.
