Svastha Yoga with Barbara Coley
The word ‘svastha’ means to be in a place of optimal health and balance, body and mind. This is the underlying principle in all Svastha Yoga Aotearoa offerings – promoting an integrated and personalised approach, where students are supported by practices that cultivate personal well-being.
Move with ease, breathe with ease, live with ease.
Yoga is an ancient art that helps us to live life with more ease and more clarity. It brings us home to a place of peace and calm.
Barbara began her yoga journey in the early 1990’s and has been teaching since 2007. She is an advocate for sound yoga practices that are accessible to all regardless of background, abilities & circumstances.
