Free yoga with Lauren
Lauren Strpko lauren@laurenstrpko.com / 022 073 8551
Free vinyasa yoga for all levels. BYO yoga mat.
Classes are a flowing, athletic style with sun salutations, strength poses, balancing, focused stretches and a bit of chill time at the end. Other movement styles, like pilates, strength training, dance, and mobility are often mixed in, too. Each class has its own flavour and focus, and is set to fun modern music. The teacher participates and demonstrates for the entire class, so you don't have to know the lingo, and you won't be physically adjusted, corrected or assisted by the teacher.

Core Connexion on the Open Floor Dance
Ingrid Kölle: dance@coreconnexion.co.nz / 021 265 9027
Participants are guided to listen to and sense their bodies and give expression to their own individual movements, to dance the dance that only they can dance. A great variety of music and rhythms will inspire slow and internal dances as well as wild and exuberant ones. Doing this together creates community, an opportunity to commune with self and with each other – getting to know yourself a bit better and having fun along the way. Come play! No experience necessary, every 'body' is welcome.
