Restorative and slow flow yoga in Melbourne's West. From the smallest seed grows the tallest tree. Yoga teaches us to cultivate greater balance in our lives.
By learning to listen deeply to the subtlest sound from within and honouring the present moment, we can experience true peace. A Yoga Seed offers restorative & slow flow yoga for all bodies & experience levels. Tess' gentle and considered teaching style empowers students to feel grounded and at home in their own body, both on and off the mat. By learning how to attune to our breath, quiet our mind and rest our body deeply, we can begin to move more mindfully and gracefully through life.

A Yoga Seed I pay respect to the Wurundjeri Woi Wurrung, and Bunurong people of the Kulin Nations; the traditional and ongoing custodians of the unceded land upon which I live and work.
"Sun says, 'be your own illumination.' /
Wren says 'sing your heart out all day long.' /
Stream says, 'do not stop for any obstacle.' /
Oak says, 'when the wind blows, bend easily, and trust your roots to hold.' /
Stars say, 'what you see is one small slice of a single, modest galaxy. Remember that vastness cannot be grasped by the mind' /
Ant says, 'small does not mean powerless.' /
Silence says nothing. /
In the quiet everything comes clear. /
I say, 'limitless' /
I say, 'yes.'

"We give thanks for the blessing of winter:
Season to cherish the heart.
To make warmth and quiet for the heart.
To make soups and broths for the heart.
To cook for the heart and read for the heart.
To curl up softly and nestle with the heart.
To sleep deeply and gently at one with the heart.
To dream with the heart.
To spend time with the heart.
We give thanks for the blessing of winter:
Season to cherish the heart."
Poem by Michael Leunig - 'The Prayer Tree'

To allow some time for rest and processing Melbourne's current lockdown, I'll be taking a little break from teaching classes this weekend.
For anyone who is interested, I'll be offering a Yoga Nidra session free of charge, this coming Monday 31/5 at 7:30pm, via Zoom.
Yoga Nidra is a supportive rest practice with many benefits including relieving stress and muscular tension, deepening sensory and somatic awareness, and restoring balance to the nervous system.
If you would like to join this practice, just contact me here or via: [email protected]
All online classes will resume as normal from the first weekend in June.
