1 Hour Hot Vinyasa Community Yoga
with Sunny Chung
Saturday, Dec 23 at 6 PM | Little Mandarin Melbourne CBD
Donation-based Community Class. All proceeds will be donated to RSPCA. One lucky winner of the class wins a Little Mandarin align yoga mat.
All levels are welcome. The room temperature is set at 30 degrees. Bring a towel if needed as we expect to sweat.
About Hot Vinyasa: Integrate alignment, movement, core strength, and awareness through Vinyasa. Keep the body fully engaged in the present moment through this moving meditation by synchronising breath with movement and becoming strong and resilient both on and off the mat. By focusing on breath leading the movement, we learn to quiet the mind and stay in the present moment.
Designed to warm your body through moderate pacing and subtle reminders to move from your centre, activate the energetic and literal centre of your balance and strength through this invigorating practice!

Hath Yoga

Hi Yogis, remembering our yoga teacher Green? Green had been teaching at Little Mandarin before she moved to Sydney while our studio was once located on level 7.

Two Little Mandarin align mats will be gifted to our two lucky yogis.
Donation-based Community Event
Yin & Meditation
Friday 29th Jan at 7 PM
All Proceeds will be donated to RSPCA & Guide Dogs Victoria
Yin yoga practice is based on ancient Chinese philosophies and Taoist principles which believe there are pathways of Qi (Pronounced "chi"; meaning "energy") that run through our bodies. By stretching and deepening into poses, we are opening up any blockages and releasing the energy to flow freely.
Yin yoga is slower and more meditative, giving you space to turn inward and tune into both our mental and physical sensations of our body. With longer hold in poses, yin yoga targets our deep connective tissues, like our fascia, ligaments, joints and bones to help us stretch and lengthen those rarely-used tissues while also teaching us how to breathe through discomfort and sit with our thoughts.
