This North Melbourne Yoga Studio Is Launching with a Weekend of Free Classes

As its name suggests, North Melbourne's newest wellness space, Estuary Yoga, is all about flow — both the kind that finds you cruising through poses on the mat, and the sweet-spot you discover when your inner and outer worlds align (yogis know).

It means that classes at the soon-to-open Queensberry Street studio are largely dynamic, focused on cultivating balance and finding your best pace, no matter how crazy life is for you right now. Guided by founder Lucy Lawes and her small team of instructors, there are classic vinyasa flow sessions, to strengthen that breath-body connection, a 'harmony' class, combining vinyasa practice with long-held yin postures, and even a back-to-basics class for fine-tuning the fundamentals.

It all kicks off this week, as Estuary Yoga marks its arrival in the neighbourhood with an opening weekend filled with free classes, as well as nourishing treats from the likes of Pana Chocolate, Angea Organic, Heal'r, and nearby cafe Elceed. Head along on Saturday, August 19, and Sunday, August 20, to get bendy in a mixed vinyasa and yin session, to meet the teachers, and to have some fun getting to know the new kid on the wellness block.

You'll find Estuary Yoga at 640 Queensberry Street, North Melbourne, with full class timetable and bookings available from Thursday, August 10. Hooked on the flow? Single class passes are $25, a ten-class pass will cost you $180, and there are a couple of weekly and monthly options, if you're feeling super committed.
