In less than 2 weeks, Bridie Bridie Young will be guiding you through “The Wisdom of Nature: A Yoga and Ayurveda Immersion,” and here is a little taste of what is in store for this 1/2 day retreat experience.

Your journey begins with a grounding 30 minute guided meditation to help you settle in, followed by an insightful 75 minute presentation and discussion on the foundational principles of Ayurveda, where you will learn how to align your lifestyle for natural vitality and longevity.

From there, you will move through a gentle flow that melts seamlessly into a deeply restorative 60 minute Yin practice, leaving you completely refreshed.

Throughout the day, hot tea and delicious snacks tailored to any dietary requirements will be provided, along with a custom booklet featuring presentation notes, a dosha quiz, and thoughtful reflection prompts.

Everything you need is taken care of, including all mats and props, though you are always welcome to bring your own if you prefer.

Join us Saturday 8 August 1-5pm. You can book your spot at reception or by calling 62659404. Limited spots available, this is something you definitely don’t want to miss!

Yogis, tomorrow morning you’re in for a treat as Heather takes you through her Sunday 9:00am class… It’s one of our most popular classes, and for good reason!

Heather’s wealth of knowledge is boundless. She’s funny, she’s kind, and her classes are so much fun! Plus, she gets you into all kinds of wild poses you never imagined you could do.

Here she is doing Crow Pose recently on the edge of a rock. She was practicing something we all practice in yoga: tapas - discipline, devotion, and passion. 💫

Don’t worry, she won’t be making you do this exact pose tomorrow… But who knows what else is in store? See you on the mat tomorrow at 9:00am! x

Chris, our amazing founder and fellow yogi shares some words of wisdom that I think we can all relate to...

We’ve all been there: you step onto the mat feeling good, but the second the instructor calls for that first downward dog of the day, reality hits. Your hamstrings are screaming, your lower back is tight, and your brain instantly panics, thinking, “Wait, when did I become as stiff as a board?!”

But here is the beautiful thing about the practice: it is all about the shift.
That first stretch might feel clunky, but by the third or fourth, things start moving. And by the time savasana rolls around? You leave feeling like an absolute rock star. 🤘🏼

It is such a perfect reminder to just breathe through the initial discomfort and trust the process. The stiffness never lasts, and you will always leave the mat feeling better than when you walked in.

We would love to know… do you relate? How do you feel before and after yoga? We are here for every part of you 💛

You may have noticed this big blue box as you walk through reception to yoga…

Well, those are Rotary Dignity Bag donation boxes, and here’s the beautiful Lynda showing just what you can donate.

Coordinated by the Rotary Club of Sorell, this initiative supports individuals fleeing domestic violence. We are collecting new or clean, second-hand handbags filled with new toiletries, hair care, and hygiene products to help those in need.

We all have some toiletries we don’t use laying around the bathroom, or that handbag you never wear, so next time you pop in, bring it in and donate to a wonderful cause. 💙

Yin… we love it here at Horizen, and we know you do too!

But if you haven’t tried it yet and think it’s “boring” or “too slow”, let us educate you - yin is so much more than yoga!

We all know yin and yang; well, your active flow is your yang, so you NEED your yin… just as the sun needs the moon, the hot needs the cold, and the male needs the female.

It’s like finding your own quiet gravity in a busy universe; instead of rushing about and firing off your muscles, you slow right down, settling into a gentle pose for three to five whole minutes. We’re targeting the deep stuff - the connective tissues and joints, letting gravity do the heavy lifting while you hold perfectly still. It takes patience, we won’t lie, but it coaxes your body into a lovely, deep state of rest, almost like floating in a peaceful little orbit away from all the chaos. Just a wee nap for your joints, really, and a grand way to reset your internal clock!

Plus we have so many amazing teachers here at Horizen who LOVE Yin and off delicious hands on assist, props, different options and cueing… maybe a massage in-between poses 🤤

We have yin on Monday - Friday and then on Saturday sink into restorative, an even deeper, more relaxing and restoring 😆 practise!

So next time you see Yin on the timetable, we encourage you to give it a go, and another go and another!

Let’s welcome Maddie to her regular spot at Horizen, where she will be teaching Flow every Wednesday at 6:15pm! 💫

If you haven't met Maddie yet, she is a breath of fresh air. By day, she runs her own freelance software design business, and she brings that same passion for creating smooth, intentional experiences straight onto the yoga mat. She is a high-energy, people-focused soul who genuinely loves connecting with others and bringing the absolute best vibes to the studio.

As a teacher, Maddie loves helping people discover just how capable they really are, whether you're looking to build confidence, try something brand new, or just take some well-deserved time for yourself.

She fell in love with Horizen's positive energy and smiling faces from the moment she walked through the doors, and she is so excited to officially dive in and get to know this amazing community. 💛

Come move, breathe, and flow with Maddie this Wednesday! 🙏🏽

Last week we said goodbye to the beautiful Stefi… so you’re probably wondering who will be taking over Tuesday 9:15am Gentle Flow?!

Well you’re in for a treat as the beloved Bridie, will be guiding you every Tuesday morning through the most divine flow 💛

As one door closes another one opens…

Please join Bridie on Tuesday 9:15am for Gentle Flow 🙏🏽

As many of you know, our wonderful Stefi is moving on to an exciting new chapter to dive deep into her Ayurveda studies!...

As many of you know, our wonderful Stefi is moving on to an exciting new chapter to dive deep into her Ayurveda studies! 🌿✨

But before she goes, you have one last chance to say goodbye and catch her on the mat. Tomorrow morning at 9:15am is Stefi’s final class, so come join her for a gentle flow one last yummy time 💛

We honestly don’t know how we’re going to survive without her. Anyone who willingly makes a massive commute to teach a 5:45am class with a smile on their face is an absolute superhero. 🦸‍♀️☀️

That is pure devotion, love, and a true reflection of her desire to share movement and wellbeing with us all.

Stefi really is one of a kind: bringing the Zen to her yoga flows or the full energy to her Mat Strength classes, she really has a gift for making everyone feel welcomed, motivated, and deeply valued. Her calm presence, expert guidance, and genuine warmth have left such a huge mark on our Horizen community.

Stefi, thank you for the early mornings, the endless inspiration, and the beautiful energy you brought to every single room.

We are SO excited to see you shine in your Ayurveda journey, even though we miss you already! 🫶

Share some love for Stefi in the comments below, and we’ll see you tomorrow morning at 9:15am to give her the biggest send-off! 🧘‍♀️💫

PS Stefi loves Horizen community… so hopefully we see her back for a class here or there in the future 🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽

You may have seen the beautiful Maddie covering a class here or there, so we thought it was time to introduce her!

Maddie told us:

"I'm a curious, people focused, high energy person who is genuinely enjoys connecting with others.

By day, I run my own freelance software design business. A big part of my work is creating experiences that help people navigate the digital world more easily, and I've realised that same passion naturally carries over into my teaching.

Teaching yoga has surprised me. I didn't expect to enjoy it as much as I do, but there's something incredibly rewarding about helping people discover they're capable of more than they thought. Whether it's building confidence, trying something new, or simply taking time for themselves, I love being part of that journey while creating meaningful connections along the way.

One of the things I love most about Horizen is the positive energy. From the moment I walked through the doors, I was greeted by smiling staff and a welcoming community. I'm excited to get to know more people, contribute where I can, and become a bigger part of the local community. 💛"

Next time you see Maddie on the timetable, make sure you come along!
