Yoga Classes

Have you ever sought more balance in your life?

Traditional yoga has existed in various forms for thousands of years as a way to clear the mind and heal the body. As life gets busier and the world seems to speed up around us, it’s easy to feel daunted by the day-to-day, which is why more and more people are looking to these traditionalist yoga practices as a source of peace. That’s where KĀYA’s yoga classes come in.

Yoga disciplines

With practices dating back to over 3000 years, scholars believe yoga grew from Stone Age Shamanism, with the primary focus of healing members within the community. As the focus of yoga evolved inwardly to self-restoration, modern lifestyles have left many of us searching for the grounding practices which yoga can offer. The resurgence of yoga and traditional yoga classes illustrates the need for an oasis in the chaos of daily life, and KĀYA offers the most healing and intensive yoga classes in Melbourne. At KĀYA, we focus on offering traditional, authentic yoga disciplines and styles of practice. Each of our yoga classes is also complemented by authentic meditation sessions and instructional yoga for beginners.

Hatha Yoga

Hatha Yoga Class

Hatha is known as the ‘mother’ of all yoga, focusing on your physical and emotional wellbeing. Various movements are incorporated, from static to more dynamic and free-flowing poses. The slow pace and simple breathing exercises make it a great place to learn basic poses and become comfortable on the mat. With movements transitioning from static to flowing, Hatha is a slow practice- ideal for an introduction to various yoga poses and use of props, as well as a centring flow for more advanced yogis to retreat into and find strength and flexibility to propel their practice.

Yin Yoga

Yin Yoga Class

Yin yoga is a perfect complement to the dynamic and muscular (yang) styles of Yoga and other fitness regimes. Yin is particularly beneficial for those undertaking strength or resistance training. Yin generally targets the connective & fascia tissues of the body, finding length while relaxing the muscles on a deeper internal level. Yin Yoga is generally mat-based, with the focus on extensive holds to find deeper connection within every pose, and reaching new connective tissue which can often be neglected. Yin Yoga is especially healing for members who regularly practice cardio or strength-based training, to improve mobility and injury healing/prevention, as the muscle learns to access new ranges within the tissue. A Yin Yoga class can help to positively affect the para-sympathetic nervous system, soothing the mind and body into a state of ultimate serenity.

Yoga Nidra

Yoga Nidra Class

This is a Yin Yoga class, followed by Nidra practice. Nidra is a deep relaxation practice, sometimes referred to as ‘psychic sleep’, to release built up mental and physical tension, ultimately leaving members rejuvenated and relaxed. Under careful guidance from our accomplished teachers, Nidra uses verbal cues to lead you through a clearing process of the mind, and inward focus of awareness and cycles of breath. Nidra allows your mind to quiet, your heart rate to slow, and your consciousness to retreat into a state of deep calm and restfulness.
