Yoga & Music: Simon Hingee
ACCOMPANIED BY MICHAEL CHIN ON SITAR
Simon’s classes seek a balance between physical alignment, flowing movement and presence of breath and mind for yoga students of all ages.
Simon started practicing yoga while studying at university. Yoga proved to be helpful in both his recovery times with sport but also with handling the stress of university exams. After 7 years in the corporate environment as a computer programmer, with the yoga practice continuing, he began yoga teacher training with the aim of bringing a better balance to his life. Simon completed his Advanced Diploma of Yoga Teaching at Nature Care College St Leonards in 2007. While he initially practiced an alignment focused hatha yoga style, his classes have moved towards a more flowing practice with an intent towards generating internal feeling of postures following the influences of Donna Farhi, Simon Borg-Olivier, Bianca Machliass and Twee Merrigan.
Simon began his teaching career working with adults. But after teaching a private autism client of 8 years old for over 7 months, he has recently completed additional kids yoga teacher training with Loraine Rushton, an international children’s yoga teacher expert. He sees this area as an opportunity to spread yoga to an even wider audience with an even greater ripple effect for the future.
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.
