Green Belt Yoga

Welcome to Green Belt Yoga, I’m Katie Ciavarella.

I have been teaching hatha yoga for over 15 years in Sydney, Newcastle and here in Leeton. I hold a BA and a Certificate IV in yoga teaching. I have also undertaken further studies in pre/post-natal yoga and the applied anatomy and physiology of hatha yoga.

Over time, and following the birth of my children, my yoga sadhana has evolved and matured along with my teaching. Naturally I have become passionate about crafting yoga practices that are relevant and sustainable throughout different phases of our life as well as finding freedom through yoga during times of illness or injury. I am strongly influenced and inspired by the Yoga Synergy system as taught by Simon Borg-Olivier and Bianca Machliss. In my classes, you will learn active movement and intelligent sequencing to enhance and regulate the flow of energy throughout your body. You will build greater strength and mobility with regular practice, as well as bringing your body and mind into alignment. Ultimately, I wish to create a warm environment filled with joyous yogic rituals that will help to awaken your inner light.

Green Belt Yoga was born in 2011, shortly after I moved to Leeton with my family. The name reflects the rich agricultural surrounds of our new home and a special opportunity to share my love of yoga with this community.

Green Belt Yoga runs weekly public classes within four terms throughout the year. Classes cater for all ages and abilities, from complete beginners to experienced yoga students. Individual tuition, private group classes and corporate sessions are also available. Classes may include meditation and yoga nidra as well as the hatha yoga (physical postures).

Green Belt Yoga operates out of two tranquil and centrally located studios in Leeton. The Loft @ 34 Kurrajong Avenue and Heartspace Yoga @ 12 Kurrajong Avenue. Both venues are fully equipped and dedicated yoga spaces. Class sizes are kept small to allow for personalised instruction and to address individual needs.

Please follow the Green Belt Yoga page to stay up to date with all yoga class offerings. Looking forward to seeing you on the mat.

Namaste
Katie
