About
Ayur-well Yoga & Wellness Studio, located in Christchurch, is a haven for individuals seeking balance, positivity, and overall well-being. The studio offers a range of yoga classes, including regular yoga as well as aerial yoga, which uses suspended hammocks as a supportive aid during traditional yoga postures. Led by experienced instructors, these classes cater to all levels of experience, from beginners to advanced practitioners.
Aerial Yoga, offered twice-weekly, provides unique benefits that traditional yoga cannot. Participants experience true spinal decompression and enjoy inversions, which strengthen the muscles in the upper back and arms through a pulling action. This helps support the health of the back and postural muscles, alleviating structural issues and pain. The use of the soft fabric hammock allows for greater freedom of movement and deeper stretches, all while maintaining alignment.
Aerial Yoga truly embodies the words of Patanjali, “Yoga is effort without tension.
For those interested in trying Aerial Yoga, Ayur-well Yoga & Wellness Studio offers an Introduction to Aerial Yoga workshop. This workshop, designed for beginners but also accommodating those seeking a challenge, requires no previous experience in yoga or aerial arts. With only 16 available spots, participants are encouraged to reserve their place as soon as possible. Attendees should wear appropriate clothing that covers armpits and groyne, bringing a mat and removing any jewellery.
The workshop includes strength work, stretches, progression to inversions, and spine decompression, concluding with a relaxation session.
Despite common misconceptions, yoga is not always gentle. It can be challenging and demanding, yet immensely rewarding. Through regular practise, individuals can improve their fitness, flexibility, and core strength while also experiencing a sense of peace and tranquilly. Yoga not only benefits the body, but also enhances mental focus, improves balance, and strengthens the immune system.
It can aid in managing illness, initiating healing, and increasing lung capacity, providing a holistic approach to well-being.
At Ayur-well Yoga & Wellness Studio, the experienced instructors are dedicated to creating a safe and supportive environment for exploration and growth. The studio encourages individuals to step out of their comfort zones, leaving behind their shoes and dignity in order to connect with their superhuman powers. Each yoga class is designed to empower individuals, enabling them to trust their own judgement, cope with life's stresses, and achieve their goals and potential. Through the practise of yoga, individuals can experience transformation and become unstoppable forces in their own lives.
