𝗙𝘂𝗹𝗹 𝗖𝗶𝗿𝗰𝗹𝗲

This week is quite a special one for me. I’m teaching at the same location where I first learnt yoga, some 30 years ago!

𝟯𝟬 𝗬𝗲𝗮𝗿𝘀!

Think of everything that’s happened in the last 30 years.

Think of how you’ve grown.
How your body has changed.
Your mind has changed.
Your wisdom.
Your practice.

𝗖𝗼𝗻𝘀𝘁𝗮𝗻𝘁 𝗰𝗵𝗮𝗻𝗴𝗲.

And then there is that part of you that has never changed.
That part of you that has stayed the same.
Quietly witnessing, the whole time.

Connect with that part of you, my friends, because that is yoga.

𝗜 𝗳𝗶𝗻𝗶𝘀𝗵𝗲𝗱 𝗺𝘆 𝗙𝗶𝘁𝗻𝗲𝘀𝘀 𝘀𝘁𝘂𝗱𝘆! 🎉

I’m so excited to be commencing our 𝗦𝘁𝗿𝗲𝗻𝗴𝘁𝗵 & 𝗥𝗲𝘀𝗶𝘀𝘁𝗮𝗻𝗰𝗲 𝗧𝗿𝗮𝗶𝗻𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗣𝗶𝗹𝗼𝘁 𝗣𝗿𝗼𝗴𝗿𝗮𝗺 next week! 🙌💪

For years I’ve been incorporating progressive loading using body weight and gravity into our yoga classes.

More recently, I’ve added weight training to my own home practice. It has helped immensely with working through chronic pain, building stronger, more resilient tissues, and supporting long-term function.

My recent menopause study explored how strength and resistance training is one of the most effective physical interventions for helping counter the loss of bone density, muscle mass and metabolic efficiency associated with declining oestrogen.

The combination of yoga with strength and resistance training is the most complementary pairing of modalities I’ve come across.

It’s through both personal practice and study that I’ve been inspired to introduce this new offering to KatieYoga as part of our continuing evolution.

𝗦𝗼𝗺𝗲𝘁𝗵𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝘀𝗽𝗲𝗰𝗶𝗮𝗹 𝗵𝗮𝘀 𝗯𝗲𝗲𝗻 𝗾𝘂𝗶𝗲𝘁𝗹𝘆 𝘁𝗮𝗸𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝘀𝗵𝗮𝗽𝗲 𝗯𝗲𝗵𝗶𝗻𝗱 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝘀𝗰𝗲𝗻𝗲𝘀… 𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝗜 𝗰𝗮𝗻’𝘁 𝘄𝗮𝗶𝘁 𝘁𝗼 𝘀𝗵𝗮𝗿𝗲 𝗶𝘁 𝘄𝗶𝘁𝗵 𝘆𝗼𝘂! 💛

If you’re not a gym-goer (like me!), this will be perfect for you.

Think 𝘀𝗺𝗮𝗹𝗹 𝘄𝗲𝗶𝗴𝗵𝘁𝘀 𝘄𝗶𝘁𝗵 𝗮 𝘆𝗼𝗴𝗮 𝗳𝗹𝗮𝘃𝗼𝘂𝗿.

No thrashing the nervous system in pursuit of aesthetics.

Just slow, sustainable, mindful progress to improve strength, movement quality, functionality, quality of life and healthy longevity.

𝗛𝗮𝗽𝗽𝘆 𝟭𝟮𝘁𝗵 𝗜𝗻𝘁𝗲𝗿𝗻𝗮𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻𝗮𝗹 𝗗𝗮𝘆 𝗼𝗳 𝗬𝗼𝗴𝗮 🧘‍♀️

This year’s theme is 𝗬𝗼𝗴𝗮 𝗳𝗼𝗿 𝗛𝗲𝗮𝗹𝘁𝗵𝘆 𝗔𝗴𝗶𝗻𝗴.

I wasn’t aware of this year’s theme until today, but it feels like a beautiful synchronicity with where KatieYoga is heading.

Our Menopause Series, for example, focuses on providing women with evidence-based strategies to enhance quality of life, health, and longevity well beyond menopause.

We also have some exciting new classes coming soon that integrate this wisdom, and support musculoskeletal health and function in different ways, helping us age with strength, confidence, and grace.

Mindset is key. Aging offers an opportunity to reflect on what matters most, reassess our priorities, and invest in our health and wellbeing so we can make the most of the years ahead.

Yoga provides an enriching philosophy that helps us understand who we are, connect with what is important, and create a stable foundation from which we can thrive throughout every stage of life.

As the Bhagavad Gita states: “Yoga is skill in action.”

Here’s to healthy aging, lifelong learning, and living well. 🙏🕉️🧘‍♀️
