Yoga

What is it?

Vinyasa Flow Yoga postures flow from one to the next with an emphasis on breathing, alignment and control. Strength, stretching, balance, focus, relaxation and meditation are all part of every class. You will become more relaxed, deal with stress better, more flexible, stronger, ease physical discomfort and improve your balance in this class.

All classes are 45 minutes long, cater for all levels, and are taken by Averil Drake.  The next courses start the week beginning 19th April, and run for 10 consecutive weeks.

The cost is $80 per course, or $15 for casuals ($10 if you are booked for one other full course with Averil).

All staff from any CDHB site can attend. Family members are welcome on a trial basis for this series of courses but they must be accompanied by a staff member.
