IN-PERSON CLASSES
If you’re needing to step out of the house and into a room of incredible energy to help motivate, inspire and support you, I AM Yoga in-person classes are for you!
We currently teach in-person classes in Otorohanga, Te Kuiti, Oparau and Piopio – you can view the full schedule below.
You will be guaranteed friendly smiles and a good laugh when you practice with our welcoming communities.
Yoga is a practice, not a performance. It is your own practice. Our teachers therefore offer progressions and modifications to suit every body in the room to ensure you are practicing at a place that feels right for you. There is no such thing as competition in our yoga rooms so it’s important to listen to your own body.
You’ll be amazed at how much strength, mobility, energy, resilience and clarity you cultivate with a regular yoga practice, and we’re so excited to facilitate this journey with you!
