Yoga with Reika

Hey there! I’m Reika.

I’m reintroducing myself here with a little more intention. It’s been a while since I began this account, first and foremost as a way to connect with people directly in my area whilst teaching across the Yarra Valley, Nillumbik & the Kinglake Ranges.

I am feeling renewed energy for yoga, in my own practice and teaching, and whilst I still intend to use this account to share upcoming classes and retreats, what I am really craving is building community through the aliveness that stems from art, yoga and creative living.

Creativity that builds upon wellbeing and your inner resources. Wellbeing that stems directly from living creatively.

Focusing on the manifestation of these creative and wellbeing goals through the path of meditation, union, yoga.

The path is non-linear and the outward expression may look a lot like breathing, yoga asana, paintings, songs, relationships, garden growing, family. All this and more.

So here’s to making this space a little more open. I’d love if you wanted to join me over on Substack, where it feels we can regain a sense of curiosity, consideration and discernment, as well as build a community that centres creativity and wellbeing.

I’ll be sharing a little more on there, but you can still expect updates about yoga classes and retreats here on the solace ground IG.

Thanks for being here 🦋

••• The importance of rest and taking time for you •••

Sue and I have created a day to allow space for you to just be.

Imagine giving yourself a day to reset.

A day for your body and mind to unwind into stillness.

How? Yoga is both the path and the destination.

Simple Yoga practices that are nourishing, restorative &
easily accessable are the keystone of our day together.

In the afternoon, we enjoy moving into a song circle
along with mantra recitation.

Participants are often surprised at just how
joyful these sessions can be.

Making sound with our voices or percussion is often
a heartfelt way to experience community.

Feeling the call for some rejuvenation?

Come as you are x

Warmer, longer days tend to inspire a natural bubbling of energy within me. Often leading into a stronger, more energetic practice.

Though as we come into the warmer months, it’s also so important to slow down and keep that pitta balanced.
