About
Doreen Yoga is a welcoming and nurturing yoga studio located in Clifton Springs, offering a range of weekly classes, meditations, workshops, retreats, and get-togethers. The studio is led by Jenny Rock, a senior teacher in the Gita Style Tradition of Yoga, which originated in Melbourne over 50 years ago and is particularly beneficial for individuals with busy and stressed lives.
The vision of Doreen Yoga is to empower individuals with the knowledge of how to be healthy and well, to feel balanced psychologically, and to access a deeper sense of purpose, meaning, and connectedness in life. The studio aims to provide a supportive and nurturing environment where students can enhance their overall well-being and achieve their yoga goals.
Classes at Doreen Yoga are designed to be nurturing and supportive, with a duration of 1 hour and 30 minutes. The techniques taught in the classes are tailored to the individual's current abilities and body's limits, ensuring there is no forcing, pushing, or competing. The classes are kept small, with a maximum of 11 students, to provide personalised attention and minimise the risk of injuries. As an experienced teacher, Jenny can adapt the techniques to each student's needs.
The classes at Doreen Yoga follow a specific pattern and rhythm, allowing students to relax deeply while working on strengthening their bodies. The class typically starts with relaxation, followed by limbering exercises, breathing techniques, a sequence of classic postures, and ends with relaxation. Throughout the classes, the deeper philosophy of yoga is interwoven to deepen the understanding and experience of the practise.
Doreen Yoga provides all the necessary equipment, including blankets, bolsters, and mats, making it convenient for students to attend without having to bring their own props. The studio operates on a term basis, discouraging casual drop-ins to foster a sense of progression and a supportive group energy. With each class, students can expect to leave feeling more energised and relaxed, regardless of their initial physical or emotional state.
To support and further explain the practises learned in class, resource sheets are often provided to students. These resources serve as helpful references and enhance the understanding and integration of the yoga techniques into daily life.
