Morning yoga classes are ongoing in Ballyroan Community Centre, Marian Road, Rathfarnham. The centre is a spotlessly clean, warm, bright, spacious place brilliantly run by South Dublin County Council; we are very lucky to have very supportive staff, the beautiful hall and a coffee area for your post-yoga cuppa. I suggest adding yourself to the mailing list for the centre to keep updated on courses and classes here. Please note the area has PAID PARKING. The ticket machine takes card or coins or use the app, your first half an hour is free, €1 per hour thereafter. Please bring a yoga mat (I have some to borrow) and a small folded blanket which you could use as a cushion to sit on or to throw over you for final relaxation.
Monday 12 noon, Tuesday 10.45-11.45am, Thursday 9.30-10.30am.
Drop in to any class: €12 per class please.
A four week course is €40. Drop-ins are €12. Courses run on an ongoing basis, you can join in any time. Sign up for two courses (two classes for four weeks, come to any eight classes) for €70.
Please enter through the main doors of the centre. The coffee shop is open for a cuppa after class.
You are welcome to join us for monthly Saturday morning 2-hour workshops, monthly mini-retreats and full moon meditations in Mutton Lane Yoga Studio. Outdoor Yoga in Marlay Park on Fridays in summer. Yoga retreats in Solar Alvura in Portugal. All upcoming events are listed and open for booking here.
What to expect in class:
The physical yoga practice is balanced and healthy… strength, balance, posture, muscle tone, flexibility and range of motion. We explore breath-work, mindfulness, meditation and guided relaxation practices. All poses are adaptable for beginners. If you have any injuries or medical concerns please check with your doctor before practicing yoga. More about my style of teaching here.
I will make some references to psychology, neuroscience and buddhism as I continue to share what I am exploring about the human mind and body as a Master of Science in MBI, Mindfulness Based Interventions. .
Our yoga courses will run in 4-week blocks with the last week of each course focused on an aspect of restorative yoga… Yoga Nidra, Yin or Guided Body Scans. I will ask you to please confirm and pre-pay your next course on the final week of each course please.
I will always work with you if you are traveling and need to do part-of a course. I do appreciate you letting me know if you can’t make a class but I know life is busy and last minute things crop up.
Monthly workshops, two hours long, will run to allow you to go a little deeper into your practice. At the moment these are happening in Mutton Lane Yoga Studio. Upcoming events are always listed on the Events and Workshops page of my website. Please book Eventbrite events early as they tend to book out quickly.
Please don’t hesitate to get in touch with any queries, I’m available by email and can schedule a chat on the phone at a time that suits. We can also plan a quick chat before or after class any time you need to check anything with me.
We are incredibly lucky to have this beautiful, clean, warm spacious room to practice in, I’m so grateful you are considering joining us!
