Nowbreathe Studio

Fantastic experience: This wonderful place was magical for me this week. I visited wellington and every session I went to at Now breathe studio, every teacher, every breath was therapeutic and healing. The teachers are top class. I'm 57 and I've been practicing yoga for many years but the really is the best yoga studio. Very welcoming. I highly recommend. Try the breatwork...it's amazing. And the massage was fabulous! ‍♀️

Fantastic experience: Merci Alexandra pour cette pratique, un parfait mélange de douceur, de dynamisme et d'humour. Ne pas hésiter à pousser la porte du studio !

Fantastic experience: I HIGHLY recommend y'all go to Alexandra for your massage. Absolutely stunning and just WOW ✨✨✨

Fantastic experience: Had an excellent massage from Alexandra. She was responsive, an excellent listener, and the myofascial massage helped so much with pain relief from a foot injury. Many thanks!

Fantastic experience: at Nowbreathe, there are two exceptional massage therapists, Alexandra and Hari. Alex offers holistic massage using various modalities, with great intuitive skill and empathy; Hari likewise, but in the Ayurvedic tradition, a flowing style of evenly-pressured long continuous strokes, using tailored herbal oils for different Ayurvedic body-types. The effect? Deeply wonderful. Every cell of me is grateful for the gifts each of these practitioners bring to their work and offer so generously to their clients.

Fantastic experience: Enjoyed my first yoga on the beach today - thanks Alex!

Fantastic experience: Had the most amazing pregnancy massage by Alexandra. She knew exactly where to focus on to help with all the nicks and pains that pregnancy brings. I have also had pregnancy massages at other spas and would 100% recommend Alexandra over them. She really knows what she’s doing! Can’t wait for my next one

Fantastic experience: I was lucky enough to attend the 3rd year celebration of Nowbreathe this morning. We had 2 fantastic sessions with Kirsten, followed by a special ceremony by Alex then off to Princess Bay for Scenic Sauna alternating with dips in the sea - absolutely magic, feeling completely blissed out now. Highly recommend if you ever get the opportunity to attend ❤️

Fantastic experience: I have a monthly membership including a massage which lets me go to as many yoga sessions as i can fit in. I love the lunchtime and yin sessions and the massage is heavenly-the only problem is it has to end!

Fantastic experience: I've started attending the Yin yoga classes on Sunday mornings and they are just so relaxing and peaceful, it's bliss. Alexandra is a great instructor and she really makes the class a retreat from the outside world. Heaps of classes to select from and some great membership options too, if you've been looking for a local studio to go to, this is the one. Namaste.

Fantastic experience: NowBreathe is the studio I have been searching for for years. Beautiful, peaceful space, teachers who have different styles and will help you get the most out of your practice. Grateful I found Alexandra and the team. And highly recommend their private classes to help you gain confidence and boost your practice. Namaste.

Fantastic experience: Alexandra is an exceptional massage therapist with amazing energy. I needed some serious help after a prolonged stay in hospital and Alexandra knew exactly which combination of treatment I needed. Don’t waste your time and energy going anywhere else. Treat your mind and body to therapeutic massage treatments that are effective. Lovely comfy bed and calming environment. I cannot speak highly enough of this welcoming place.

Fantastic experience: I had the most wonderful massage of my life with Alexandra! She is attentive & intuitive, and has a beautiful energy that you can really feel through the massage therapy she offers. Perfect ratio of pressure and communication and I love her holistic approach. I am so excited for my next one!

Fantastic experience: Alexandra is such a great therapist. As a massage therapist myself I could not recommend her more! She really cares about your concerns and go the extra miles to make sure you feel good after! Her works is a mix of différents massage techniques added on top of that a lot of energy /healing work. Her studio is beautiful and really peaceful energy!

Fantastic experience: Alexandra's massage and space is very healing! I have returned for quite a few massages and definitely feel huge benefits - I'm a lot less broken, able to move with more ease and probably a lot more pleasent to be around! Many thanks :)

Fantastic experience: Alexandra has been really good at teaching Back to Basic class- and all the class I went were very professional. All the teachers are different and that makes it very unique.

Fantastic experience: Beautiful yoga studio, love the morning classes - perfect start to the day!

Fantastic experience: I would highly recommend this studio for anyone who is undergoing a personal healing journey, or even just to begin to hold a compassionate and sacred space for yourself; while cultivating a deeper relationship with your body. I can really feel a shift in energies engaging in these practices held at the studio, and it feels very therapeutic. I feel like quite a lot is being released and revitalised through the movements. The massage as well as practices of breathwork, yoga and meditation, held at the studio are also very effective for healing trauma in the body. This is a very beautiful space with warm energy, and I would highly recommend for you to join this heart centred community, and engage in these wellbeing practices, to begin to experience substantial shifts in your life.

Fantastic experience: Really lovely first experience at this studio. It has plenty of space, including an upstairs mezzanine! Also, free tea!

Fantastic experience: A friend gifted me a massage voucher at the start of the year. Alexandra was so warm and welcoming. She has such a deep understanding and intuition, finding all my old soccer injuries and the places where I hold my tension. I decided to see how the combination of yoga and regular massage would help my ageing body and my sport aspirations. The difference that NowBreathe has made to my wellbeing is far greater than I could've imagined. The massages by Alexandra are so theraputic and relaxing, all the yoga classes I've been to have been great, the teachers all have such a warmth of spirit, and there's definitely the beautiful community feel around the studio. Thank you Alex and the team! Arohanui.

Fantastic experience: Alex’s massages at NowBreathe studio are amazing! Deeply relaxing, but also an incredible release as well. Her knowledge and sense of the body is incredible. Take her advice and try the stomach massage too - uncomfortable for most people normally but there are so many important organs tied up to emotions there that need a little massage! Can’t wait to go again. Highly recommend!

Fantastic experience: Cannot recommend this studio more. The instructors are so lovely and the variety of classes, meditations etc are incredible. There is a great sense of community and loads of super sweet community events - film viewings, retreats etc. It's a lovely space to be - all classic good for all abilities and experience levels. I look forward to coming every day :)

Fantastic experience: The most wonderful massage with Alexandra - her knowledge, capability and intuition allowed me to feel safe in her hands, trusting her entirely to provide the best care and support for me and my body. I came out of my 75 minutes feeling nourished and refreshed, just magic.

Fantastic experience: ‍♀️Get your daily 'Om' fix here! From meditative, restorative, and nourishing, to myofascial releasing, and sweat inducing pilates, this place has it all! Thanks for helping me keep my Yin and Yang harmonised. I always leave feeling Zen.

Fantastic experience: I went to a vinyasa flow workshop with Natallie and it was amazing!!! Beautiful environment; so safe and open. I loved it!

Fantastic experience: I attended my first Yin-Yoga Class at NowBreathe Studio yesterday and I really enjoyed it. Located at the heart of Kilbirnie, in a quiet and charmful pedestrian alley, arriving to the studio with the beautiful trees is a transition in itself that takes us far away from the busy roads and life. The studio is well design and many little details create a unique vibe. The staff is cheerful and I have been made comfortable from the very first minute. Tea was provided before, during and after the class, the mats are brand new and of great quality and the studio brightness is very adequate to a yoga class. The yin-yoga class was led by the calm yet confident voice of Alix. The focus on breathing as a group was quite an experience that I definitely recommend !

Fantastic experience: I am so happy Charlotte opened Now Breathe in my neighbourhood. The studio and teachers are very welcoming and friendly and the people that attend are invited to stay for tea afterwards, with many people doing so. There are all shapes and sizes, ages and experience so you don't have to feel awkward coming and giving it a go. My favourite classes are the breathing and strtch/yin ones. Charlotte has created something very special and her love of people and life shines through.

Fantastic experience: If you like breathing then you’ll enjoy the Nowbreathe experience. It’s not your usual yoga studio. Sure, there’s the downward dog, the plank, and warriors, but there is the breath, and it is at the heart of everything. It is wonderful space with welcoming and very experienced teachers. There is no right way, there is no wrong way to breathe, stretch, or meditate. OK that's not quite right, some ways are better than others. It is up to the individual to decide on how much or how little to challenge themselves, whatever you do then it is highly likely you will come away feeling better than when you walked in to Nowbreathe. Even if you choose to lie on the mat under a large, warm blanket for an hour and not move a muscle then no worries that is the best thing for you at that time, no one will hassle you, no one will judge you. The cups of tea are a delight, the accompanying music always fantastic. They are as much part of the experience as the movement and stillness. The sign-up process is simple, the booking system excellent.

Fantastic experience: I joined the studio as soon as it was created and since then it has become my breathing space away from the hectic life I sometimes live. Charlotte and all the teachers are amazing, inspiring souls. There is no judgement in the studio and the saying "come as you are" has never been more true. After a bike accident that led to a concussion, practicing in this magical place, listening to my body's possibilities and limitations and allowing it to heal was an incredible experience. Charlotte and her team are dedicated to offer great experience with a lot of professionalism. The community is full of amazing people and I met so many new and beautiful people. Thanks so much

Fantastic experience: I attended my first 'Now Breathe' class with Charlotte and it was amazing! I really didn't know what to expect, but I'm so glad I went along and gave it a go. Charlotte is an incredible instructor and the studio is beautiful too. I can't wait to go back to another class!

Fantastic experience: Just went to my first yoga class with Alix today and I loved it! I definitely felt a sense of belonging here and was welcomed with open arms by one of your regular attendees :) I don't know when I will be back but I definitely will come back!

Fantastic experience: Wonderful, welcoming and beautiful studio in the Southern Suburbs. So lucky that Charlotte provides this space for us. Love the variety of classes - I absolutely love visiting! Thank you x

Fantastic experience: It’s like opening the door to find a peaceful, safe, beautiful space!! Surrounded by people that helps you realize how peaceful, safe and beautiful you can make the space within yourself. Charlotte and all the instructors are like your long time friend, always with a welcome smile making you feel relax straight away. The studio is always promoting amazing events to keep the community and beyond busy, but not your everyday busy. It’s more how to find balance, to catch-up with your friends, to bring more self awareness kind of busy. Now Breath studio and all the beautiful souls that are in there will always have a warm space in my heart.

Fantastic experience: I have been coming to this studio since the end of last year and I absolutely love it. I love all the teachers and they all have something unique to offer. I think this studio is quite unique in that it offers breathwork, meditation and a range of different yoga styles. I have found classes usually significantly ease my chronic headaches and put me into a state of deep rest and relaxation. Classes are also great at boosting my mood and energy levels too. The atmosphere is incredibly soothing, with dim lighting, beautiful plants and fairy lights, along with herbal tea.. I cannot reccommend this place highly enough! Thanks for all the love you put into your studio!

Fantastic experience: From the moment I stepped through the doors of this yoga studio I felt ‘at home’. The warm welcome, friendly, professional and caring teachers, the setting and ambiance (& cups of tea before and after class!) all filled my bucket with a sense of peace, happiness and calm. There are a great variety of classes and teachers. I can’t recommend this studio enough, it’s so worth experiencing.

Fantastic experience: The day NOWBreathe yoga studio opened was a very good day. I have practiced with every one of the instructors since, and attended every type of class they offer. Classical sequences well led in a gorgeous relaxing environment with comfortable, brand new mats, bolsters, blocks and straps. Lovely sense of community encouraged by the beautiful tea offered after every class. Welcome to the neighbourhood, NOWBreathe. I'm so grateful you are here
