Christ-centred movement & meditation

Your pathway to strength and peace

Are you looking for movement classes that will strengthen your body, bring peace to your mind and offer a new perspective on life? Welcome to Be Still Movement.

In our hyper-busy, over-stimulated world, we spend our lives hurried and distracted. We are physically exhausted, emotionally drained and spiritually starved. 

So, in this increasingly busy and noisy world, how can we find time to stop and connect with ourselves, our community and our life’s meaning and purpose?

Be Still Movement provides a space to do just that.

Our classes combine the ancient Christian practices of mindfulness, biblical meditation, stillness and silence, with the physical movements of yoga.

Build strength and flexibility

Feel more calm and centred

Be empowered in body, mind and spirit

Join our community

We’d love to move with you!

  • “Be Still Movement offers a wonderful class where women can come and feel comfortable to breathe deeply, enjoy time out of their busy lives to move and relax with just the right amount of challenge and support to go home feeling way better than before the class.”

    Kate S

  • “I have always struggled to put time aside to focus on my physical well being. It felt like another box to tick on my 'things I should do' list. When I heard about Be Still Movement classes – that are not only for my physical wellbeing but also my spiritual wellbeing – it became not something I should do, but something I wanted to do. The time spent strengthening my physical and spiritual body through these classes has been of enormous benefit. Each time I attend I feel it has set me up well for the week ahead of tackling my 'to do' list, my body feels better and my focus is realigned to the Creator who made and loves me.”

    Robyn

  • “I have been a regular member of Be Still movement classes. Bec combines strength, flexibility and balance all in the one class, and yet Be Still is much more to me than physical exercise alone. Every class is a time to stop and get present, ground into my body and connect with God. I truly enjoy going and always feel better walking out than I did going in.”

    Maddy

  • “Being new to the class I was nervous as I’m not at all flexible – but Bec put me at ease immediately. She always provides a range of options for each class. I’ve improved so much.”

    Kate B.

  • “As a mother of six and working full time, finding time for myself is a rare luxury. When I started attending Be Still Movement classes at my local church, I discovered a sustainable and fulfilling way to practice self-care. Each session left me feeling relaxed, noticeably improving my flexibility and overall fitness. Not only did I experience a sense of calm and balance, but I also felt like I had a great workout. I wholeheartedly recommend these classes to anyone seeking to enhance their fitness and tranquility in a welcoming and serene environment.”

    Natalie

  • “I enjoyed my movement & meditation sessions each week. I have had two knee replacements and Bec was always able to modify the exercises for my ability. Loved the relaxation time and the playlist. It was a time of peace each week.”

“Are you tired? Worn out? Burned out on religion? Come to me. Get away with me and you’ll recover your life. I’ll show you how to take a real rest. Walk with me and work with me – watch how I do it. Learn the unforced rhythms of grace. I won’t lay anything heavy or ill-fitting on you. Keep company with me and you’ll learn to live freely and lightly.”
