Barefoot & Balanced integrated wellbeing centre, located in Orange, offers a range of classes, programmes, and services to support individuals on their wellness journey. The centre's philosophy is grounded in the belief that true healing and positive change come from aligning the mind, body, and spirit.
Yoga is a central offering at Barefoot & Balanced. The community classes, held on Mondays, Tuesdays, and Thursdays, are designed to gently align the physical and energetic body. These classes incorporate a mix of yoga styles and are suitable for all levels of experience. The emphasis is not on flexibility, but rather on cultivating a willingness to face challenges both on and off the mat.
Art therapy is another key component of the centre's services. This evidence-based method allows individuals to express themselves through art and gain insights into their own healing process. Whether working one-on-one or in a group setting, participants engage in movement, awareness, mark-making, and reflection to tap into their unconscious mind and discover helpful insights. No artistic experience is necessary, and all are welcome to explore this transformative practise.
