What do I love about doing yoga?
Life is busy; I am constantly on the go and always committed to doing things with little time for myself. Coming to yoga seems like an indulgence in the nicest possible way – I feel like I am spoiling myself by simply taking the time to attend classes.
For the duration of the class I focus purely on me! Nobody else, just me, my feelings, my breath, my body... read more about Lee

I tell a lot of people about yoga. I keep saying, “Why don’t you get into yoga, it’s the best, the best thing ever! Not only does it improve your physical strength and tones your body, it also gives you mental replenishment…”
I am very happy I have found yoga, it’s incredible. I think not many of my generation understand how good it is, have any idea of what it is about, or realise the benefits of yoga… So, I tell as many people as I can,
“Get into it, the results are amazing!” read more about Sylvia

Claire & Belinda’s eclectic approach to yoga means that classes are always different, I am never bored, and what adds to my pleasure is that it is fun! I never come into a class & think “Oh, here we go again”, this is what keeps me coming back. We laugh, it is social and I enjoy mixing with the other students, people of all ages, it keeps me young…
As I am heading into my late 60's I know yoga is very good for my health, even more so than when I was younger, it helps me to concentrate on myself for set times during the week and brings me back to me. A lot of the weight bearing and opening postures are very challenging and you use your body in a yoga class in ways that you just don’t do in everyday life. But if you don’t use all the bits then they stop working, and the older you get the more important this becomes.
Yoga is not for me a place to do amazing poses or push my body beyond its limits, but to be kind and caring to myself..." read more about Maree
Natasha Cooper
My introduction to SunYoga came through my sister who started doing pre-natal yoga. I started going to SunYoga weekly, but a bit sporadically, on & off, life got in the way, you know how it is…? But gradually I started to notice that when I didn’t do my yoga I didn’t feel so good, and that when I did come regularly it made a big difference.
My twice weekly yoga is like my medicine, every 3 days I get my dose, my fix, and I really look forward to it…

After a prolapsed disc injury in 1987, I suffered from constant sciatica down my left leg. It was very painful, tiring and quite debilitating. My doctor and physiotherapist both told me that I would never fully recover, I would always have back problems and that I would have sciatica for the rest of my life! I didn’t imagine that yoga would cure my back but the classes felt good, I was very comfortable with Claire and my chronic back pain started to improve.
When Claire started teaching more and moved to Sunshine I upped my attendance to twice weekly. This change made a big difference to my flexibility and my back problems quietly improved some more. One morning I was lying in bed, contemplating life and it just dawned on me,
“My back pain is gone, I can’t remember the last time I had sciatica!”
