Open Day Thank You!

Our Open Day was such a wonderful event! Busy and buzzy! Thank you to everyone who volunteered their time, brought their people along, made delicious snacks and to the feature students for sharing their stories. The feature student boards will stay up for a few weeks so you all can read them - they are an interesting read and great cross section of our community.

North Island students I can't wait to see you in Taupo!! The Taupo workshop is a highlight in my year, reconnecting with you, having time to explore and delve deeper. Friday 13th - Sunday 15th March 2026, bookings to Heather at Yoga Tree by Thursday 12th February at hello@yogatreetaupo.co.nz 

IYNZ Convention with Abhijata Iyengar
IYNZ is the NZ Iyengar Association, and this year's convention is with Abhijata, BKS Iyengar's grandaughter. I will be travelling to Auckland to be part of this weekend, learning from Abhi is always a joyful and nourishing experience. There will be no classes Saturday 14th & Monday 16th February due to this. The Monday session is for certified teachers and trainees, and is not something I can miss. I will look forward to sharing with you all the insights and learning from this weekend.
All can join the association for a minimal fee, be part of our wider Iyengar community and receive the member benefits that come with it.  https://iyengar-yoga.org.nz/ Next time Abhi comes to Aotearoa, it would be amazing to have many IYD students there to learn directly from her. 

Giveaway promotion
Go into the draw to win one of 2 JBL portable speakers. These little speakers are the best! To enter please leave me a positive Google review or refresh your existing one. After trialing a review company I learnt the Google ones are more impactful and therefore important. You can copy the REVU one you left into Google as well - they are all on the website on the reviews page.
 
Our new space in Moray Chambers really is wonderful, while the move was an enormous amount of work, which I couldn't have done on my own; I am loving being in this light filled warm space surrounded by good people.
