Refract Yoga Practice is led by Bec Cole (she/her), Yoga Instructor and Clinical Psychologist. It is located at Studio Take Care in Brunswick (Bulleke-bek), an LGBTQIA+ owned and run studio. Consisting of a Sunday AM and PM practice, Refract Yoga Practice sets you up well for the week ahead.

Sun Class:

8:30am Sunday morning class, consisting of active yoga styles of Vinyasa and Hatha in a beginner-friendly 60min class. Complementary herbal tea is offered before and after class.

Lyric-based music: Whilst the yoga itself is traditional, the music playlists are unconventional. Playlists incorporate genres of pop, folk, RnB, jazz, soul, and rock, which help make classes accessible and fun.

Post-yoga coffees and chats: If you do not have to rush off after class, we walk 5 mins to Wild Life Bakery on Albert Street in Brunswick East for coffees and chats. If it’s sunny, we enjoy them in Fleming Park over the road.

Moon Class:

7pm Sunday evening class, consisting of passive yoga styles of Yin and Yoga Nidra in a beginner-friendly 60min class.

Non-lyric based music: Traditional meditation music is used here, to allow for mind wandering during Yin postures. Additionally, Yoga Nidra, a supine meditative practice, involves listening to verbal guidance to induce bodily relaxation, slow the breath, and induce a sleep-like state.

Post-yoga cacao and chats: If you do not have to rush off after class, we spend 15mins after class (8-8:15pm) reflecting on our individual practices as a group, accompanied by cups of complimentary sweet ceremonial cacao.
