‘Yoga for over 50’s’ at Dunsborough and Districts Country Club for ladies AND gentlemen !!
– Beginners welcome !
In the words of local Dunsborough resident and yoga instructor Mandy Lancellas ‘I thrive on encouraging those who feel they ‘can’t do yoga’ to become those who can, by exploring the multiple benefits for the body, mind and soul. Gentle Hatha Yoga enables the body and mind to find calm and focus in the present moment. It is through breath awareness that we manage to realign our physical body with the mental and energetic systems. Our main focus is safe and effective alignment, to create awareness, strength and mobility. As we grow older the saying of ‘what we do not use, we loose’ begins to resonate with us more and more and so its vital to keep the body moving in a gentle and safe way, maintaining a healthy range of movement throughout our senior years and reducing the risks of injury.’
Mandy invites anyone who is interested to join this gentle and safe yoga practice, suitable for all levels including beginners and people over 50.
Date: Wednesdays
Time: 9:00 am
Venue: Dunsborough and Districts Country Club
Cost: $15
* Please bring a blanket for relaxation (as well as your own yoga mat if you have one).
For any queries (or to book a yoga mat) please call Mandy Lancellas 0475057294

Coursework
* The course has been fertilized with the weather on our side . Thanks to Clive Williams , Mike Brown, Barry Jackson and the rest of the group for this major task.
* Trees uprooted by the recent storm are set to be cleared and mulched and all drains are now cleared with water running freely. Again, a major task undertaken and carried out by our hardworking volunteers.
We may be small in numbers but through your efforts we manage to keep an 18 Hole Course in pretty good condition despite the weather and the physical effort required. You can all be proud of your contribution and the social atmosphere we share and enjoy after the game . At DDCC , Golf is more than just a game.
This applies to both Ladies and Men. Well done and Thank you All.
Good Golfing !
