10 really good reasons to come to yoga in term 2
Right now, we’re in that time of the year that everyone in Albany says is the best - early autumn. But we all know what’s coming… shorter days, cooler mornings, and the temptation to hibernate under a blanket.
That’s why now is the perfect time to commit to your yoga practice for Term 2—before the cooler weather slows you down! Here are 10 really good reasons to get on the mat and keep moving as we shift into autumn and winter.
1. Set the Habit Before the Cold Kicks In
It’s so much easier to stick with yoga when you’re already in the routine! Getting into a steady practice now means you won’t have to fight that winter slump later.
2. Keep Your Body Mobile & Energised
As the temperature drops, our muscles and joints can feel stiffer. Yoga helps keep everything moving smoothly, so you don’t end up feeling tight and sluggish when winter fully arrives.
3. Maintain Your Summer Strength & Energy
You might’ve spent summer feeling active and vibrant—don’t let that fade! Regular yoga keeps your energy levels steady so you glide into the cooler months rather than feeling drained.
4. Boost Your Mood as the Days Get Shorter
We’re about to lose those long, light-filled evenings, which can affect our mood and motivation. Yoga is a natural way to lift your spirits, helping you feel grounded and positive even as the nights get longer.
5. Build a Self-Care Routine That Lasts All Year
It’s easy to look after yourself in summer when everything feels lighter, but real self-care happens when you commit to movement, even when it’s less convenient. Yoga all year round helps.
6. Keep Your Circulation Flowing as the Weather Shifts
As it cools down, our bodies naturally become a little slower. Yoga helps boost circulation, keeping you feeling warm, awake, and alive rather than sluggish as the season changes.
7. Give Yourself Dedicated Time for Stillness & Breath
Autumn is a time of transition—not just in the weather, but in us. Yoga offers a space to pause, breathe, and check in with yourself as the seasons shift.
8. Stay Connected Instead of Retreating Indoors
Once the cooler weather hits, we tend to go out less—and that can feel isolating. Coming to yoga each week keeps you connected to a warm, supportive community of like-minded people.
9. Strengthen Your Immune System Before Winter Arrives
Yoga helps reduce stress and supports a strong immune system, both of which are key as we head into the season of sniffles. A little movement now means you’ll thank yourself later!
10. Because You Deserve to Feel Good, No Matter the Season
At the end of the day, yoga is about you. No matter the temperature, no matter the season, showing up for yourself will help you feel stronger, calmer, and more at home in your body.
So why wait? Commit to your Term 2 yoga practice now, and set yourself up to feel amazing—before the cold weather even arrives. Term 2 bookings are available from Monday 17th March 2025. Click here to book.
