Making our movements sustainable, so that we can continue to do the things we love, especially yoga, for as long as we want
This retreat is all about combining the love of a yoga practice with DNS.
DNS (Dynamic Neuromuscular Stabilisation) is the framework of movement, breath and posture that we developed over the first year of life as an infant.
It enables us to observe our posture through movement, and create more awareness of how we are moving.
In this way, we can relearn more stable, functional movement patterns
and bring longevity into our physical body and our yoga practice.
GREG and TRACY COOPER
Our
Story
In the early 1990s we returned home from studying with Sri K. Pattabhi Jois in Mysore South India. We then began teaching the first daily Ashtanga vinyasa classes in Melbourne.
We frequently hold specialist workshops and immersions with globally renowned teachers as supplementary knowledge for our students and community.
"The yoga practise has taught my mind to focus and be still when needed, my body to be strong and supple and I feel free from discomfort and agitations . I have felt supported through my lifes hard times by the potency but stability of the practise." Tracy Cooper

Bianca and Darren CLAYTON
When we begin to learn to move in this way, it's often that we experience those "AHA" moments.
These make all the difference.
"Do your practice, all is coming."
