Osheani has been teaching yoga locally for over 20 years. Having begun a regular meditation practice in her early 20s and finding this so helpful for depression she then went on to discover a love for yoga asana or mindful movement as a further aid in balancing energy for her mind and body. More recently a diagnosis of fibromyalgia has led her to further studies in holistic counselling, mind body medicine and nervous system regulation. The mind body connection having always been a part of the teachings in yoga, have been highlighted even more through this personal experience which she sees as a blessing in how it’s helped her better understand and relate to students experiencing chronic plastic pain conditions. Working with nervous system regulation has become more highlighted for her through this experience as well as over the last few years understanding the constant changes of the time have seen many at burn out. This strengthens the resolve at Align to always have a balance of slower paced classes for those in need alongside the more active sessions.

Yoga
Wherever you are in your journey Yoga will meet you there. Yoga is an art and a science where you will learn to move with mindful purpose, greater freedom and balance. As a mind body practice, we teach all classes with attention to functional strength, support and alignment of your body, mindfulness and focus for your mind and awareness to breath, energy and relaxation. Our classes will help you get to know your patterns of physical movement and also thought patterns and through greater awareness of self gradually shifts will occur. We aim to teach you in a way that these shifts and transformations will improve all areas of your life over time. Yoga is a not about posture performance but about a greater balance in all areas of your life.
Our Philosophy
New Students
Welcome new students! Email to find out our new student current offers alignbodymindsoul@ymail.com a few days before booking.
Personally I still remember my first Yoga class, feeling awkward in myself and yet inspired by those around me at the same time, something inside me clicked and I instinctively knew this was a practice for life. I felt lit up, connected and alive in my whole self. It was possibly the first time I actually liked my body and eventually learned to also like myself. Each of our instructors feel some very special connection to yoga, have a deep respect for the ancient teachings though also keep abreast of what is current in understanding and knowledge of the body. We want you to come explore and see what is a fit for you personally as well.
Please email me, Osheani ~ alignbodymindsoul@ymail.com and tell me a little about what you usually do and what your needs are so I can personally direct you to the most appropriate class for you and let you know if we have any current intro offers – sometimes we have the welcome pass and otherwise the second class free offer. Have a read of the “class types” page for some more info on our classes and do send me any questions you have if needed or we shall have a chat when we meet at the studio. Number restrictions and social distancing are still in place so bookings and cancellations are essential at this unique time for your wellbeing. We have a private face book group full of class options available on subscription if this is a better way for you to practice for your convenience.
