Yoga & Music: Paul Frechtling
ACCOMPANIED BY ALI SARSHAR ON HARMONIUM
Paul teaches with care and understanding to slowly cultivate deeper awareness and encourage a daily practice.
Ashtanga Yoga has been a big part of Paul's life for the last 20 years. He was introduced to yoga in the late eighties and began a dedicated daily Ashtanga practice around 1992. Finding the flow of breath and postures of Ashtanga so beneficial for both body and mind, he began teaching this style to others so they could also feel the benefits and now teachers both in Sydney as well as the Blue Mountains.
He has been to Mysore, India to study under the master Shi K Pattabhi Jois and his grandson, Sharath, who gave him authorization to teach. Other teachers who have greatly influenced him have been Graeme Northfield, Peter Sanson and Eileen Hall.
Paul has also studied Anatomy and Physiology to encourage greater body awarness, pranayama and meditation. He has worked with people with injuries and illnesses and found Ashtanga Yoga to be very beneficial for all types of people.
ABOUT YOGA & MUSIC
Start your day with a peaceful mind and build a strong and healthy body. It's free!
There are six classes to choose from across the week, offering a range of styles and selection of teachers from across Western Sydney, giving you the opportunity to have a go and find a style and teacher that works for you.
All levels are catered for.
All you have to do is commit to turning up at 7am to Town Hall Square. Classes will be held outdoors unless the weather is inclement and then we are able to move inside. Bring your own mat if you can.
Anyone can start a yoga practice, even if you don't feel like you are very flexible or very strong. These things will improve the longer you practice. Ultimately one of the most liberating things about yoga is letting go of the ego and accepting that no one is better than anyone else. Everyone is just doing their best on any given day.
Each class will be accompanied by live music.
