Koha based gentle yoga
Kia ora 💛
I’m Maia – a lifelong yoga lover, community-minded creative, and someone who believes in the quiet power of gentle movement and mindful connection.
After over 20 years of personal practice, yoga has become my anchor – a source of healing, strength, and peace. Now, I feel called to give back and share what I’ve learned through Gentle Yoga for Everyone – community classes designed to be welcoming, grounding, and accessible for all.
These sessions are a little more than yoga – together, we explore gentle movement, breathing techniques, meditation, self-reflection, and simple exercises to support mobility, blood flow, and lymphatic health. It’s a space to slow down, tune in, and care for your whole self.
Classes are koha-based. Every contribution helps me on my journey toward becoming a qualified yoga teacher, and I’m so grateful for your support 🙏
You can join me on the Facebook page Belfast Community Yoga to stay updated and connected.
With aroha and deep gratitude,
Maia

Many New Zealand gardens aren’t seeing as many monarch butterflies fluttering around their swan plants and flower beds these days — the hungry Asian paper wasp has been taking its toll.
Thanks to people like Alan Baldick, who’s made it his mission to protect the monarch, his neighbours still get to enjoy these beautiful butterflies in their own backyards.
Thinking about planting something to invite more butterflies, bees, and birds into your garden?
Thanks for your mahi, Alan! We hope this brings a smile!
