It’s cold and rainy outside so we’ll be keeping it cosy at Dance of Life tonight. In Pilates for Yogis (6-7pm) and Vinyasa Playlist (7-8.45pm) we’ll be focusing on postures that warm us up from the inside and fire up digestion and our immune systems for the colder weather. We’ll be flowing to the Strength Mix
See you tonight Yogis!

STEADYo, A Video of a Motion Tracked Yo-Yo

Such a clever video, the movement is synced so well with the sound- I love the mandala like shapes the hands form.

The projections on customs house, by Electric Canvas were stunning! So vibrant and detailed, and followed the architecture of the building in such a detailed clever way. I took lots more photos and video, because it was mesmerizing! Worth coming to vivid festival just to see this!

Amazing! I love the intricate shapes they make together and how they take turns being the flier and base.

We are celebrating the one year anniversary of Vinyasa Playlist tomorrow night (7.15-8.45pm)! It’s been such a fun and inspiring class to teach so far- with musical input from Rane (he’s making his 30th mix right now) and energetic input from everyone on the mat! This week there are lots of our musical favourites going into the mix including Marom by EarthRise SoundSystem, i will be sequencing some of our favourite asana- like pigeon and handstand, into the flow- let me know if you have any special requests!
Pilates for Yogis has been running a little longer, and i’ve got lots of exciting (and challenging) new magic circle exercises tomorrow night 6-7pm! 
If you are free this afternoon come along to my newest class at Dance of Life, Nurture Restorative Yoga, from 2.30-4pm we’ll melt into deep stretches, rejuvenating pranayama and guided relaxation.
See you soon Yogis!
