Kia Ora
Pleased to post that Blue Ocean Yoga has returned to our Saturday morning practices.
I am a certified yoga instructor and will be leading two sessions at both locations of Aro Valley Community Center at 9 am and the Brooklyn Community Center at 10.30 am (60 min practice for both sessions).
With our return and to follow best practices, we will maintain a few aspects to ensure we are able to maintain a safe practice:
* Please bring your own mat and small towel if you would like (will not be able to provide and/or loan mats)
* Please continue with correct hygiene practices (ie washing/drying hands thoroughly before/after yoga practice. Hand sanitizer will be available as well)
* Strong encouragement to continue with Contact Tracing (use QR codes or within your own records)
* All participants are encouraged to stay home if they feel unwell
* Continue with cleaning practices to ensure the space is well kept and tidy.
Saturday 18 July 2020 - Aro Valley @ 9 am start & Brooklyn @ 10.30 am (60 min - In person).
This will be a gentle, but strong practice and guaranteed to get you moving.

Poll: If we want to reduce speeding, what do you think actually changes driver behaviour? ๐ป๐จ๐
In the Post's article on speeding penalties, the question is asked whether speeding fines are truly about road safety, or are they just a way to boost revenue for the Crown?
What do you think? Should speeding motorists receive speeding fines or demerit points?
-
36.6% The sting of a fine (Money talks!)
-
63.4% The threat of demerit points (Nobody wants to lose their license!)
Scam Alert: Bank cold calls
ASB is warning customers about reports of cold calls from scammers claiming to be from ASB. These scammers are trying to obtain personal information, including usernames, dates of birth, and verification codes sent to your mobile phone.
๐ก๏ธ The "Caller Check" Test
If you get a call from someone claiming to be from ASB and youโre unsure, just ask them for a Caller Check. You will then be able to verify the call through the app.
Remember, banks will:โโ
โ Never ask for your banking passwords, PINs, or verification codesโโ
โ Never need to know your full credit card number โ especially the CVC
โ Never ask you to download software or remotely access your deviceโโ
โ Never ask you to purchase gift cards or transfer funds.
If you have received a phone call and think your account has been compromised, call ASB on 0800 ASB FRAUD (0800 272 372), or visit your local branch.
Some Choice News!
DOC is rolling out a new tool to help figure out what to tackle first when it comes to protecting our threatened species and the things putting them at risk.
Why does this matter? As Nikki Macdonald from The Post points out, weโre a country with around 4,400 threatened species. With limited time and funding, conservation has always meant making tough calls about what gets attention first.
For the first time, DOC has put real numbers around what it would take to do everything needed to properly safeguard our unique natural environment. The new BioInvest tool shows the scale of the challenge: 310,177 actions across 28,007 sites.
Now that we can see the full picture, it brings the big question into focus: how much do we, as Kiwis, truly value protecting nature โ and what are we prepared to invest to make it happen?
We hope this brings a smile!
