I finished SATYA 3 at 00:30 this morning. Eye opening experience. I feel like I’m standing a foot taller after all the practice I’ve done. I’m looking forward to taking a couple of days to let my brain absorb all this knowledge. The big question I have now is, where from here?

I’d highly recommend you explore half moon pose with your foot against the wall. I wouldn’t define it as easier, just different. This was one of the closing poses from today’s practice in the course.

I’m halfway through Day 3 now 👌🏻🧘🏼‍♂️

A morning stretch was definitely required today.

I generally work on a theme of the month. That way we have a solid chunk of time to tap into the sequence and explore the theme in depth.

This month, with our theme called Shift & Adjust, I extended the theme to seven weeks because of how my schedule is working out.

Oh my, it’s been a dream to work on something that for that length of time. The weekly progression, from a teaching perspective, has given me the space to explore the movements more than I ever have before.

With every week that passes, the 1-hour class feels shorter and shorter. In the blink of an eye, the class begins and ends.

How have you been finding the experience of working on something for this long? We have just finished week 6 with one more to go.

Next week will be my last week of classes before I take a two week break. Classes finish on 15th October and will resume from 2nd November.

I’ve extended the six-class pass in my booking system. You usually have 8 weeks to use this. Due to my time away and (sorry to mention this one) Christmas, it can now be used for 12 weeks to cover my time off.

Basically, that’s the long way of saying… Keep booking as normal because I’ve made all the required adjustments.

I has loads of photos of the day retreat venue land in my inbox last night. I’ll post them shortly so you can see the space in full. I’m so excited for my first yoga retreat day.

I genuinely can't believe it's October. I have two weeks off from everything at the end of this month. No teaching classes. No day job. I'll be studying part 3 of a fantastic course for one week of it though. Other than that, I'll be living schedule free.

For most of you that know me, I'm genuinely racing from one place to another keeping myself busy. It'll be quite odd to have two weeks with no commitments.

Before that can happen though, I have two goals: a) dodge this cold that's going around
b) have a blast watching The Celebrity Traitors

If you're on my mailing list, I'll send out an email update so you've all got a record of what's happening and when classes will resume.

Just wanted to take a moment to say hi 👋🏻

The land of social media has changed a lot since I started STY back in 2019. It felt like there was an ounce of community in the online space back then. People were more than happy to like a post or share something.

With the rise of ads, AI content, short form video and paid subscription to unlock features, the landscape feels very different today.

I spent a lot of time talking about social media, typically before or after online classes. Most of the time we're collectively attempting to figure out why we're still present on these platforms.

It made me sit down a consider why I do still have a Facebook account. Or an Instagram account. My reason is that I love sharing what I'm doing in the business and I'm apart of some wonderful groups which are a beacon of light. But just like most of us, I always need to monitor how often I open these apps subconsciously.

I've made some decisions recently about my personal usage of AI and being a little more deliberate with it. I often used it for grammar checking or to help explore topics. Over time, I felt like I was just saying less. There were words, plenty of them, but very little substance. I felt like I stopped thinking to meet these deadlines I'd set myself just to put something into the online space. I've stopped that now. I make myself write this stuff. It takes longer but it's quite cathartic sometimes.

Anyway, I thought this would be a great way to actually say hello again with some of my thoughts on these platforms. 👋🏻

This happening tonight at 9pm. I've just finished the script, inspired by my time in Madrid a couple of years ago. A great city to experience the hustle and bustle of the city balanced with the calm of El Retiro.
