Hello dear SunYogis.
Well I am so happy to be sitting here writing as the sun shines in Melbourne. I don’t mind being able to snug up in warm clothes and blankets in the winter …AND I’m looking forward to some warmer weather and more hours of sunshine.
Thanks for you patience in me getting this latest newsletter to you. I have had some website issues along side delays in gathering the information I need to clarify the term dates and some new offerings I am excited to be bringing to you in term 4.
There will only be a 10 day break between term 3 & 4 as we went into the holidays with term 3 being extended. Term 4 will be a 10 week term, (not 11 as I mentioned in class) with a small break early December due to another commitment. Term 4 dates are Oct 3 through Dec 19.
As many of you know I was gifted a very generous gift by my bestie from high school of an impromptu, fully paid, 4 day trip to Coolangatta. This is why the term was extended – to cover the Tuesday classes and Thursday am class that were missed. Thank you to my students for being so supportive and encouraging me to say YES & understanding about the timetable change and my need to have some time away. I had my early morning yoga practice – on the beach – Swam in the ocean even though it was a little cold at 7.30am! It was the most amazing feeling to have the combination of the cold swim, warm sun on my face afterwards and sitting on the sand simply in awe, absorbing the magnificence of the ocean and the sunrise. I think after my first morning swim I just sat for hours. I had massages, beautiful food, long walks and of course the company of a very dear and long time friend- which included lots of laughs and just a few games of pinball in the hotel games room. My friend is a little competitive.
New offerings at SunYoga!
Moving into term 4, I will be trialling some new offerings beginning with an Introduction to Yoga Course. If you, or someone you know is wanting to try yoga but feels they would like a more detailed introduction rather than the trial class option, then this is perfect. We will cover all the foundations of yoga, modifications and options for a suitable practice for your body on any given day, the use of props and the breath work practices I teach in all my classes. My intention is for participants to feel like they can come to any of my classes confidently. Trusting that they can use modifications to work at their own pace; be it slower and more restful or with the intention to work more strongly finding your edge. Also suitable for current students who want to revisit the basics and modifications with more opportunity to check in what may or may not suit your regular practice. It will be a 6 week course running Wednesday nights, 6.30-7.30pm, Oct 18 -Nov 29 (no class Nov 8) $132. Book NOW!
Also in response to those who have been asking for more restorative, I’m also offering a Restorative program. It will include restorative yoga, Pranayama (breath work) and relaxation/savarsana supported by a Vedic and melodic chant offering with singing bowls. These will be small classes of 4-8 participants and will be priced differently to regular term classes. I will offer a 3 week block starting Wednesday Oct 18 – Nov 1. Time: 7.30-8.30pm. If required I will offer a second block of 3, Nov 15-29. Restorative classes are not included in other term enrolments as make up classes or 2 class per week memberships. They will be included in the Unlimited yoga class pass. Bookings can be made as a single, double or 3 class pass to be used in the one block of 3.
1 x class pass $35 / 2 x class pass $64 / 3 x class pass $85
If either of these new offerings interest you please book NOW!
Also new to SunYoga is the 1 class or 3 class trial pass. $15 for 1 class, or $45* for 3. This is for newcomers to SunYoga only.
*(to be used with in 4 weeks – not valid for workshops or restorative classes .)
Shameless cross promotion.
Thanks to everyone who came along to my recent gigs at the Bathtub Gin Co Distillery in Williamstown. I have some more public dates coming up. Saturday 7th October (time TBC) I will be performing with my partner Dave on drums/percussion. Sunday 15th October, 3-6pm, I will be accompanied by my pianist Brett Rosenberg. If you’d like to follow my facebook music page please do so here.
Until I see you on the mat, or at a gig, breath deeply and embrace the sunshine!
Much love,

Awaken & Restore Workshop
Upcoming workshops – AWAKEN & RESTORE are scheduled for Sundays Oct 8th & Nov 5th. 2-4:30pm.
So if you have been wanting to attend for the first time or return after your last bliss out with these practices, places are limited so please book ASAP.
I am introducing a tiered payment structure for these workshops. See the Awaken & Restore page under Events Tab for more details.
I’ve had some amazing feedback from the previous workshops. Here is just a few snippets:
“Lisa’s beautiful calming voice guided us through amazing breath work, asana, mantra and meditation practices. My nervous system was so calm & I felt renewed from the inside out……”
“I was fortunate enough to attend the Awaken & Restore Workshop held by Lisa recently & I left the yoga space feeling uplifted, relaxed and rejuvenated. It is lovely to have the extra time to slow down and go deeper into the reasons why we practise. Lisa always chants at the end of our weekly sessions but during this extended mini retreat we enjoyed longer melodic chants, mantra with asana & Vedic chanting. What a treat! I highly recommend the experience to those who are long time yogis or people who are first time practitioners.”
“….I had never done Yoga Nidra before and Lisa’s guided practice sent me into a state of conscious relaxation that lasted the whole day!….”
Check the Awaken & Restore Workshop page for more details and bookings.
