About

Every Sunday, I bring folks together for yoga in Cubbon Park - it's the one thing I look forward to all week. My style is simple: breathe, move, just be. Doing yoga out in the open, with the city buzzing in the distance and the grass underfoot, feels different. If you’re tired of studio walls, this might be your thing.

What It Feels Like

This isn't the intense, perfection-chasing kind of class. The vibe is light, sometimes a bit unpredictable - we’ve had sitar music join in, dogs lounging, and people just soaking up the morning. I want everyone to feel they belong, whether you’re super flexible or just starting.

How We Practice

• Hatha Vinyasa group flow is what I lead, but I mix it up depending on the mood and the crowd.
• Surya Namaskaras for energy, grounding poses for chill.
• Breathwork is huge for us - syncing breath with movement feels surprisingly calming.
• We always end with relaxation, sometimes Yoga Nidra, letting everything settle.

After Yoga

Once we wrap up, people hang around. Sometimes there’s homemade cake, hummus, or chilled majjige (buttermilk). Chatting with everyone after is honestly my favorite part. That simple connection - marete hogidde (I had almost forgotten) how much it means.

All You Need to Know

We meet Sunday mornings, always in Cubbon Park. Just bring yourself - and maybe a mat!
