Australian School of Meditation and Yoga - Free Yoga Day

Saturday 14 March 2009 The weather was beautiful and sunny and people kept on rolling up with many new faces trying yoga for the first time and many regulars passionate about exploring their practice further. Highlights of the day include; 110 students participating in a mid morning pick me up Energy Yoga class; over 150 yoga enthusiasts partnering up to learn how to give an Indian Head Massage; a tasty and sumptuous lunch and refreshments served throughout the day; inspirational and beautiful kirtan (singing meditation) that left everyone feeling like that had stepped under a clean mountain waterfall and the amazing teamwork of all the ASMY teachers and volunteers who made such a successful day possible. More than 250 people joined us on Saturday at the Albert Waterways Community Centre to celebrate all things yoga.

Free Yoga Day http://www.freeyogaday.com/ is an international event aimed at promoting the physical, mental and spiritual benefits of the time tested yoga tradition. Some feedback from students on the day included; "I wish that I could do this everyday," "I feel great, so relaxed and peaceful," "I am so glad that I made the time to come" and "There is no better way to spend a day."

If you missed out on Saturday be sure to mark March 14 in your diary for next year. We will be making the 2010 event even bigger and better.

We hope that you continue to enjoy and pursue your passion for yoga.
