Easter Long Weekend Intensive

UNITY: The Body, The Brain, The Breath

>> With Suzi Chin Silicz
>> Saturday 19, Sunday 20 and Monday 21 April
3.00 – 5.30 PM each day.

Explore the connection between the body, the brain and the breath which is unique to yoga practice,… beyond it’s reputation of just stretching and exercise. 

Yoga means unity. With ourselves and the world around us. Easter time is a reminder of the spiritual plane. Yoga invites us to connect to our own unique spiritual world within.

COST: Full intensive $150. Partial attendance (two days minimum) $120

Pranayama
Arambhavastha

(commencement stage)

6 week series
With Stephanie Quirk

>> Friday 30 May to Friday 4 July
>> 6.00-7.15pm each Friday
>> Cost: $150 for 6 week series in studio.
>> Online attendance is also possible: Cost: $140. Go here to enrol in this.

As in asana we learn the outer form and alignment of each position, so too in pranayama we learn and pay attention to the outer aspects of posture and technique. These are the container or the form of practice. In this six week series Stephanie will be guiding you to see the connection between the outer form of pranayama and its inner experience. It is understanding the direct connection between the outer form and the inner content that defines Iyengar Yoga.

Suitable for students who have attended a minimum of 1 year regular Iyengar Yoga classes with a certified teacher and who are familiar with the supine and seated postures used in pranayama practice.

Bowral Retreat

With Peta

>> Thursday 11 – Sunday 14 September 2025

The Bowral retreat is on again in 2025. We will visit in early spring when the tulips are opening up and the weeping cherries blossoming. 

Bowral is an easy 90-minute drive from Sydney. We will stay 3 nights at ‘Sage Manor’. Sage is a very pleasant property, with a pretty established garden, outdoor eating areas, a beautiful light-filled yoga room and delicious food. It is set in 3 acres of land, at the base of Mount Gibraltar, overlooking Bowral township. There are very pretty walks round about, and a (community) swimming pool down the road. You can check out Sage Manor here: https://www.sagemanorbowral.com.au/.

Our Sage accommodation will be supplemented by a large and comfortable Airbnb property just across the road. This way everyone who wants a single room can have one. Twin share is also possible.

Suitable for those with some experience of Iyengar yoga. Numbers are limited, so book soon to secure your place.

Each day there will be a morning and afternoon yoga class, 7.45-10am and 4-5.30pm. The yoga program will include a short period of meditation each morning, asana and pranayama, with restorative practice each afternoon.

All meals will be provided by Sage Manor. They will be largely, but not solely, vegetarian. There will be a healthy morning fruit juice before class, midday brunch and an evening meal, as well as beverages and snacks available through the day.

There will be plenty of free time each afternoon to do as you wish, whether that’s lying on your bed resting, snuggling up with a book, exploring the Sage Manor gardens and its surrounds, or visiting some of Bowral’s charming attractions and shopping street. Massages can be arranged either at Sage Manor or in Bowral (not included in the retreat price).

Bali Retreat in Ubud

With Suzi Chin Silicz

>> October 25 – November 2, 2025.

‘The Bali retreat, now in it’s 9th year, is one that I think yogis often return to because it has a good balance between yoga practice, taking a break and enjoying being in Bali. 

Early each morning we practice in the cool shala overlooking tropical gardens whilst the jungle beyond wakes up. It is a truly beautiful and healing atmosphere with yoga as our primary agenda. 

Later in the afternoon we gather for restorative time to complete the day’s yoga story.

I extend a warm invitation to you all, come and join us this year.’ 

– Suzi Chin Silicz
