Great Ocean Yoga

We are teaching from The Ballroom above Middle Island Clinic on the corner of Timor and Fairy St, inside the ‘old’ Royal Hotel.

It’s all sounding very grand and, Yoga is the royal pathway so what a perfect place to hold space for it. Yoga offers a haven where time dissolves, allowing you to find solace and reconnect with your inner peace.

We believe that yoga is a transformative journey that brings profound balance and harmony to your life. Whether you are a beginner seeking to embark on this transformative path or an advanced yogi aiming to deepen your practice, our Hatha, and Restorative classes, will gently challenge and nurture you.

She loves to weave the practice, philosophy, and practical application of Tantra, Yoga, Pranayama, Meditation, and old wisdom through her teachings in a way they can be well received, applied and integrated by the everyday human.

 
 

YOGA CLASSES

 

Hatha Yoga

Hatha yoga is an introspective practice that reaches every part of you. As you unroll your yoga mat, the environment instantly becomes a sanctuary for some ME time. You find your body connected to the floor, aware of your surroundings you close your eyes and feel into your breath. Your yoga is a practice of self-discovery, discipline, and awe. You find yourself becoming more aware of how you live as you reflect on how you get into, sit in, and come out of each pose. Each deliberate movement offers a meditation if you’re willing, or a chance for connection to the present moment. Busy thoughts no longer have the right of way, the focus attends to the body's alignment and the breath's rhythm. It is a practice that nurtures self-awareness, creating a space for introspection and self-acceptance.

Restorative Yoga

Experiencing restorative yoga is like stepping into a tranquil oasis in the midst of daily chaos. As you settle into the softness of your mat, a wave of calm washes over you, inviting you to release tension and surrender to the present moment. The gentle, supported postures allow your body to effortlessly unwind, while deep breathing and mindful awareness guide you to the depths of relaxation. As time passes, layers of stress melt away, replaced by a profound sense of restoration and renewal. In this serene space, you are free to nurture your physical, mental, and emotional well-being, embracing the peace and stillness that resides within you.

To attend one of these classes you need to call/message Peta on 0448781253 to book your place.

— Dr. Jodie Fleming

I know how much we all enjoy & are enriched by your classes. We all appreciate how much of yourself you put in. I have loved seeing your development of the yoga space making it such a welcoming environment. Looking forward to continuing next year.
— Sue Rooney

I know I find it tricky sometimes to make a class. I don’t want to drive back into town, I’m so tired, I can’t be bothered…. BUT when I commit! Wowzers. Geez I love it. I sometimes forget how much I love it. As the end of the year draws near I realize how tired I am when I can’t concentrate on the breathing practice & find myself waking up thinking f#*k, everyone’s left the building & the lights are out!
Thankyou for your generous spirit, ability to laugh at yourself & not take things too seriously & the gift that you give each & every one of us through your teaching.
— Kate Rollo

Peta thank you so much for all your classes. I have learned to love yoga due to all your classes. You put so much into it and I get so much out of it. I can’t thank you enough. 🙏You bring the spiritual side along which has been of great benefit to me.

Yoga Gatherings

 

Grieve & Restore ~ The Healing Power of Yoga

Releasing grief through breath, sound, and movement can be a profoundly healing experience.
Yoga, an ancient practice that unites mind, body, and spirit, has long been hailed for its transformative benefits. Beyond offering physical strength and flexibility, yoga possesses a remarkable ability to heal and restore our emotional well-being, making it an ideal companion during times of grief and loss.
Grieving is an intensely personal journey, and no two individuals experience it in the same way. It is a profound process that often leaves us feeling overwhelmed, disconnected, and emotionally drained. However, through the practice of yoga, we can find solace, restoration, and a renewed sense of hope.
Yoga provides a safe and sacred space for us to explore our grief and release the emotions that weigh heavy on our hearts. In this stillness, we can witness our pain, honor our loss, and continue the healing journey. We will be gathering together 3 SESSIONS OVER A WEEKEND, to gift ourselves sacred space to grieve and restore.

If you feel like you would like to know more, please join the waitlist. Places will be limited.

Reiki

up to 90 MINUTES $88

Reiki is a holistic healing practice that harnesses Universal Life/Love energy to promote physical, mental, emotional, and spiritual well-being. Rediscovered in the late 19th century by Dr. Usui, Reiki involves the gentle placement of hands on your clothed body. Through this connection, Peta acts as a conduit for the healing energy. As a non-invasive and non-religious practice, Reiki can reawaken your body's natural ability to heal itself. Reiki can illuminate the next step in your life and help remove your physical and metaphysical obstacles. A wonderful modality that can be incorporated alongside conventional medical treatments, Reiki offers an experience that will nurture your mind, body, and soul.
