We're running a free chair yoga class.

WHY chair yoga?
It's no secret, regular yoga practice leads to improved: flexibility; strength; posture; and mental wellbeing.
But if you have mobility issues, you may feel excluded... because yoga poses require you to get up & down from the ground.
Chair yoga is LOW-intensity - yet, still delivers all of the benefits.
If enough people show interest, we'll run regular chair yoga classes.
Here are the details:
* 11:00am to 11:45am, Monday, 13th of August
* Paremata Boating Club - 110 Paremata Road
And, do let me know if you are interested in chair yoga, but can't make this free class. Also, include days and times that work best for you.
Please share with friends who might be interested.
Register for the free event, here:

If you have any questions, please let me know.
Thanks,
Lauren McKee

Hey neighbours, It's been a long hard winter and for many, power bills have been going through the roof. Have you been affected?
We're looking into ways we can all keep these costs down for a story on Homed and would love to hear from you if you have particularly large or small bills.… View moreHey neighbours, It's been a long hard winter and for many, power bills have been going through the roof. Have you been affected?
We're looking into ways we can all keep these costs down for a story on Homed and would love to hear from you if you have particularly large or small bills.
Do your power bills come in way higher than your friends and family? Do you know why, or does the amount always take you by surprise? Maybe, like the family who created an effective solar panel heater out of drink cans, or the blogger who enjoys free power generated by a converted washing machine, you've found a creative way to minimise your bills. If so, how do you do it?
Whether your bills are high and you're looking for ways to reduce them, or you have some secrets to low power bills that you're willing to share, we'd love to hear from you. Leave a message in the comments, or email homed@stuff.co.nz.

The move comes after much public debate on the appropriateness of firearms being brought into schools, including when soldiers taught children as young as nine how to assemble and shoot assault rifles at a leadership exercise in Palmerston North last year. However students can still use firearms as part of shooting clubs and competitions. Click here to read the full article and guidelines.
So what do you think of the new rules? Are you for or against them?
