Venue: Great Hall
Where downward dog meets quirky humour and your core gets stronger from laughing and lunging.
Join Nat for a wildly un-serious yoga class where you will flow through poses inspired by real life—think camping squats, “holding-onto your sanity for-dear-life” chair pose (yes, like when you REALLY need to find a bathroom), and all the gloriously human moments in between.
Expect witty banter, cheeky commentary, and a whole lot of slightly nutty humour (we’re embracing full squirrel energy) while working your body in all the right ways.
It’s yoga… but make it autumn, a little ridiculous, and very, very real.
Come for the stretch, stay for the laughs, leave feeling lighter in every sense.
About the Instructor
Nat is a rebel Pilates/Yoga teacher and former Latin dancer who swapped her Salsa heels out for sticky mats and bright tights. This Greek Saffer with Egyptian roots, now fully-fledged Kiwi, invites you to master the art of laughter whilst wobbling, preferably without face-planting.
Known for her flexibility, Nat’s classes are equal parts mum humour and stand-up comedy-mostly unintentional. A proud Pilates nerd, she’ll happily correct your posture, while reminding you she once pulled a muscle while sneezing. She teaches Yoga like she lives life, enthusiastically, slightly sideways, and always a beat away from breaking into a shimmy.
