Canberra Yoga Space (CYS) is the first dedicated yoga studio in Canberra offering a comprehensive range of styles and focus areas.

Canberra Yoga Space VISION

Just like having an ‘energetic shower’, CYS is about providing you the space and support to revitalise yourself and your inner being.

The CYS affirmation is “Connect, Revitalise, Create”. As you connect and revitalise your inner-being and allow this connection to be clear and well amidst the mental chatter, you will find yourself empowered and restored, with the capacity to live healthier, to listen to your authentic self and unique needs with ease, and thus support you to create the life you truly want to live.

No matter what style or pathway of class or course you attend at CYS, all our teachers share a common intention, which is to revitalise you and restore you to your natural centre/ your natural state.

Four Pillars

NAMASTE – ‘The divinity in me bows down to the divinity in you.’ This principle underlies the relationship between any two individuals within the space. It requires the highest level of professionalism and presence of mind when teaching, bearing in mind to be of service to the individual’s highest good.

THE INTENTION BEHIND THE BREATH – The intention behind breath awareness and movement with the breath is to unblock energy pathways, and revitalise the individual. The breath allows the body to open and move into position (instead of pulling into place).

THIS IS A NURTURING SPACE – There are no ‘shoulds’ or ‘should-nots’ in this space. This is an allowing space. Teachers are nurtured in their passion and professional development, and this journey is mirrored in their intention as they instruct and hold the space. There is a big emphasis on cultivating responsive teaching, as well as responsive practise. For you the practitioner – we offer a range of different yoga styles and/or pathways, to allow a relevant response to change and evolution.

THIS IS A SAFE SPACE – Focus on good anatomy and physiology is fundamental.
