Darby Lin Yoga & Pilates

I offer a variety of Yoga and Pilates classes to improve your health, strength, flexibility, peace & happiness through the Gold Coast, QLD Australia and Online, Anytime, Anywhere!

Vinyasa Yoga- Vinyasa means "breath-syncronized movement". Vinyasa yoga is a sequence of poses that will move you through the power of inhalation and exhalation. This smooth, dance-like style can also be called Flow Yoga because of it's flowing nature. Physically, your sweat will expel toxins out of the body and re-energize your soul. Mentally, the syncornized breath will release any stress to leave you floating into bliss.

Hatha Yoga- This is a slower, gentle and more meditative approach to yoga. This is great for beginners to learn the poses and become comfortable on the mat. Hatha will still offer a challenge to gain muscular strength, flexibility and mental stillness.

Power Flow- Power flow builds strength, endurance, balance and coordination while maintaining strong connection to the breath. Darby's energizing power flow class offers an integration of pranayama, standing, balancing, seated, and supine postures.

Yin Yoga- A yoga class focused on slowing down the mind and body. A series of restful postures in a slow sequence designed for students to go inward, surrender, and quiet the mind and body. Because you hold each pose from 3-5 min each, Yin is more about quality vs quantity.

Pilates- Pilates is a movement therapy used to improve physical strength, develop flexibility, improve posture, and enhance mental awareness. Pilates is all about control of the body, developing core strength and assisting with injuries/postural imbalances. Pilates can be hard work so if you are new to Pilates, we recommend trying the Pilates Beginners classes first.

Corporate Yoga- Corporate yoga is being embraced by progressive businesses all over North America & Australia. Companies can offer yoga classes during lunch breaks, or as a workshop and it's a great way to promote health and boost morale. Classes can be tailored to your company and can include chair yoga, and strategies for stress management through meditation and pranayama. Benefits of corporate yoga include improved memory, increased productivity, overall job satisfaction, improved health, reduced health care premiums and reduced employee absenteeism.

Specialized Classes / Workshops- A great way to bring people together is through a specialized class or workshop. Classes can be 1-3 hours long, as a one-time experience or over the course of several weeks. All you need is a group of people, and a large room or communal space. Available classes include:
