Our pricing for this event is done on a sliding scale, meaning you can pay what you want to attend based on your circumstances. Keeping in mind the time and energy it takes to create and facilitate this event, and to host this in our cosy studio space.
If you're an existing Kanuka Yoga member, did you know you can give free trial classes to others, and earn credits on your account to use towards events like this one?
/// What To Expect ///
We begin with slow embodiment practices such as somatic movement, circling of the joints, guided improvisation, meditation, and breathwork. These practices help you land in your body and soften the mind.
You're then invited to grab a cushion and blanket, settle onto your mat space (using your cushion/blankets), and receive a deep, restful sound journey.
The quartz crystal bowls gently guide your brainwave state from the active waking Beta into the calm, regenerative Alpha and Theta states — supporting nervous system regulation, deep rest, and emotional clarity.
Imagine a qigong-inspired class with a sweet lullaby at the end.
These sessions are created with the intention to offer space and time for your body to move through its own natural healing process — with no pressure to perform or "do" anything.
You are free to follow what feels good in the moment. Many participants leave feeling lighter, more centred, and grounded, with improved sleep, reduced stress, and a sense of emotional spaciousness.
Expect to be welcomed into a warm, cosy studio space with tea on arrival. You’ll be gently guided and supported the whole way, with the freedom to participate as much or as little as you’d like. Leave feeling more inspired and empowered than when you arrived, and take home a few simple tools to continue your personal journey in your own space and time.
/// What To Bring ///
Comfortable and stretchy clothing
A warm layer, maybe some cosy socks
A journal and pen if you're one that enjoys reflection during workshops, otherwise you can save your journaling for afterwards =)
We have all props, bolsters and blankets in the studio, however we always suggest bringing any personal items from home (i.e. small cushion, blanket, yoga mat) for extra comfort.
Eye mask/pillow or scarf (recommended)
Plus, any other items to support your experience; perhaps your favourite crystal or any sacred items you wish to journey with.
Please avoid coffee/alcohol on the day and have a light breakfast if you're eating beforehand.
