Power Yoga
Power Yoga classes are dynamic, energetic Vinyasa classes with a strong emphasis on following the breath as we flow from one pose to the next. These are dialogue led classes with vitalising and energising standing postures.
The classes are sequenced to smoothly transition from pose to pose, with the intention of linking breath to movement. Linking physical movement with breath allows us to be really “present” with what is happening on the mat.
Continued focus for an entire hour reveals a clear and open mind. These classes involve a lot of dynamic movement and the emphasis remains on steadiness. We move from, and return to a place of balance.
Vinyasa will help you to build your strength, flexibility and balance in both your body and mind.
Yin Yoga
Yin yoga classes involve mostly passive floor poses that are held for several minutes. Bolsters and blocks can be used to ease into the poses.
Each Yin posture has a “target area” and support and guidance is offered throughout class on how to best “sit with” and explore the physical sensations. The deep stretches allow the body to release tension and improve flexibility.
Yin Yoga helps to open the body, relieve stress and calm the mind.
Slow Flow
A slow Vinyasa flow increasing flexibility and strength of body/mind.
All levels welcome.
Gentle Yoga
Take a little time to come home to yourself and encourage your energy to flow.
This gentle yoga class will combine exercises in breathing, meditation and loving kindness with gentle movements to mobilise our joints. We will also explore some standing balance challenges, always with options so you can suit yourself. As we move we will practice finding pleasure in moving our bodies, and in being present in the moment.
Let's play together to encourage body-mind-spirit connection, self acceptance, and joy at being alive!
Pilates
In a mat Pilates class you will hold postures like planks and repeat core exercises to build your muscles and core strength.
Mat Pilates classes will complement your yoga practice by boosting your core strength. You will notice the difference after just a few classes and feel more confident in your yoga postures.

Claudia
Claudia’s classes are designed to help people be in their bodies and to develop the awareness and ability to remain present for all of the physical sensations, emotional fluctuations and thought formations that bubble up through the layers of the body-mind during the practice.
Students are guided to refine their sensitivity and ability to listen to what is happening in their body. To use the breath to clear away the contractions and tightness they feel and the light of their awareness to peel back the layers of conditioning so that they can begin to experience with more clarity who they really are.
Claudia’s style is fluid, with attention to alignment and energy. The classes are designed to leave you feeling energized, calm and serene.

Kimbali
Kimbali began practising yoga in 2008 and was introduced to Ashtanga yoga a few years later by her first teacher, Yumi Kaneko.
Kimbali’s practice and teaching involves a devotional enquiry into self, arrived at through attention to breath and dristhi while practising asana. Through practising this method, she experienced more space in the body and mind, building steadiness and strength within – and her hope is to share with others’ that the qualities of peace and grounding cultivated through practice can be carried into daily life.

Our background story if you would like to know a little more:
Junction Yoga is a small family business with a passion and commitment for doing good in the local area. We are the third generation of the Sullivan Family to put our energy and effort into the Coorparoo Junction via Sullivan’s Building.
With a vision for the local community, James (J. A.) Sullivan, our grandfather, built the Sullivan’s Building in 1952. J.A. sought to do good in and for the community and became well respected in this regard. J.A. had instilled the same values in his children, and our father, John Sullivan, followed closely in his footsteps.
Dad had an incredible determination and was known for his exacting standards and generosity to the local community. He was charitable in the support he offered to organisations that did good in the world also to the local businesses at Coorparoo Junction.
Dad and Mum married in 1959, and then we came along. James, Katrina and Claire are three of seven siblings. Growing up in the local area, the Coorparoo Junction and Sullivan’s Building have always been a part of our lives. While we all have had our own adventures, lived and worked away, family and community has always remained central to our lives. In 2008 we came together in business and strive to continue the Sullivan family involvement in the local community.
We are generally all-round good sorts. Our goal really is to create the best environment and instruction for you to get what you need out of your yoga practice. Contact us if you have suggestions, feedback or just want to know a little more about what Junction Yoga could offer you.
Namaste,
James, Katrina and Claire
