Yoga for Every Body

Yoga for Every Body - Devonport.

Teachers: David Noon and Gillian Mayo. Both are qualified Yoga Teachers and Yoga Therapists (NZQA).
Gill is also qualified in Relaxation and Hot Stone Massage (NZ College of Massage -NZQA).

Yoga for Every Body offers restorative yoga classes and 1:1 yoga therapy sessions for people of all abilities, gently providing relaxation, and improved breathing, flexibilty and strength.

Participants in classes are consulted to find out what it is they want to achieve through yoga. They receive individual guidance and regular follow ups to check how they are progessing. The yoga exercises are modified as necessary to accommodate the individual needs of each participant. There is no pressure to perform or to keep up. The exercises are intended to be carried out in a relaxed state of mind and body. This results in a profound state of calmness in which the body and mind learn to let go of tension. It is in this state of mind that the parasympathetic nervous system takes over from the stress induced sympathetic nervous system and the body is better able to carry out its own self healing.
Gill and David want participants to learn how to help themselves and they recommend exercises that people can do at home.

The studio is carpeted and it is a dedicated yoga space.
There is also a yoga therapy room and a massage room.
