Find yourself on the yoga mat

A yoga space that’s inviting, connected and inclusive

The meaning of the word yoga is union, and with an open mind and open heart, at the centre of everything that unites us is love.

During our yoga practice you will learn to care for your true self through pranayama (breathing), mobilising your joints and ligaments and strengthening your bones through asana (poses) and practising self-love through kindness and compassion.

You will be given strategies to live a life filled with calmness by cultivating awareness and feeling your way through your experiences to seek wisdom and learnings, and to move into living a life full of abundance.

Yoga is compassion, not competition

If you’re new to yoga and feel nervous, know this: yoga is not a competition. No-one is comparing your flexibility, looking at how low you are in an asana, whether you can do a headstand, or whether you’ve painted your toe nails.  

At Manda Jane Yoga, all I asked is that you arrive on your mat without expectation, and allow yoga to gives you the time and space to come home to your self. I welcome everyone, from absolute beginners through to experienced yogis, leading classes that are open hearted, creative, innovative, enthusiastic and grounded.

Vinyasa Yoga

A physical and flowing yoga. Vinyasa is the embodiment of
strength, alignment of asanas, and weaving the practices (mantra, mudra and meditation) through rhythm and breath.

Vinyasa yoga is a physical yoga, helping to bring your body into balance, releasing tension and stiffness so your joints, muscles and ligaments can move more freely with a greater range in movement.

Vinyasa yoga is included in my classes at Holland Park, Beenleigh, Victoria Point and Mount Cotton.

Yin Yoga

Restorative yoga that leaves you renewed. Yin yoga is a
passive and soothing yoga, primarily focusing on floor-based postures - perfect for when all you can do is make it to the mat! Each pose is held in still contemplation, allowing you to breathe and be mindful of your body.

Yin yoga is a deeply nourishing practice, with a slow intention to target joints, connective tissue and fascia to create more space and flexibility. From an energetic perspective, yin yoga aims to release your
fascia and open your meridian lines, allowing chi to flow through your body more freely. Chi is considered the bridge between physical form and pure awareness.  My teaching also shares my wisdom of the five elements and Tibetan Buddhism, from where yin yoga originated.

Yin yoga is included in my classes at Holland Park, Beenleigh, Victoria Point and Mount Cotton.

Meditation & Relaxation

“Meditation is the breeze that comes in when you leave the
window open, but if you deliberately keep it open, deliberately invite it to
come, it will never appear.” J. Krishnamurti

Meditation is one of the key yoga practices that will change
your life - but it’s so much more than lying still and attempting to let thoughts pass you by.

Your mind is never completely still, it is always seeking an
experience. Knowing that meditation is all around you in various spontaneous moments will give you greater awareness of how you can create your own calm and live your best life mindfully.

At Manda Jane Yoga, my meditation practice helps you to find those moments of stillness and allow yourself to be in peace in them, no matter
how fleeting they may be.

Meditation and mindfulness is included in my classes at Holland Park, Beenleigh, Victoria Point and Mount Cotton.

Amanda Walters, Qualified Yoga Instructor

I discovered my gift in 2019, when I began teaching yoga. For 20 years, I’d been deepening my yoga practice, discovering my authentic self and aligning my body on the mat. After years of practice, I realised that I needed to gift others with this greater awareness that I was fortunate to experience.

I'm a proud member of Yoga Alliance.
