Here you find all the information about the yoga and meditation classes I'm teaching in Ipswich, QLD, Australia. In my blog I post info for the latest change in the yoga class schedule and/or events. I write about the different aspects of the yoga philosophy, quotes by yoga masters, that inspire me. Nice photos, humour, general inspiration, uplifting and positive thoughts.
To shine a light in the world..... 🌟💫

On "maria steiner unplug" I intend to share more personal stories, poems and photos by me.
Happy reading and thanks for stopping by.

Over the last couple months I slowly re-introduced the face-to-face Yoga classes at the Scout Halls. It has been good. Every class that is back at the Scout Hall, can at the same time be attended online via Zoom as well. This set-up will remain in place.
The following classes are back at the Raceview Scout Hall, 32 Taylor Street, Eastern Heights 4305:
Tuesday morning 9am – 10:30am, hatha yoga class.
Thursday evening 6:30pm – 8pm, hatha yoga class.
Wednesday morning 9am – 10am, seniors yoga class.
Thursday afternoon 5pm – 6pm, seniors yoga class.
The Yoga class on a Tuesday evening 6pm at the Scout Hall in Cameron Park, was back from beginning of August – mid September. This venue is now closed for several weeks for renovations. I offer an online class at this time instead.

Even once the in-person Yoga classes resume, you can join all of the above classes online via Zoom as well.
Plus for Zoom only, you can join the following Hatha Yoga classes online, time in Brisbane, Australia:
Over the last three months we had many, daily and weekly online Yoga classes via Zoom. I know joining online is not possible for everyone.
In case you need some motivation and encouragement do give the online Yoga classes a try during this Queensland Winter, then please read some heartfelt feedback I received lately:
Gerbera in our Garden, June 2020.
Hi Maria,
I just wanted to thank you for continuing with yoga during the Covid 19 lockdown. Before the lockdown I would not have considered online but now I am a convert. It is so convenient. There is no travelling involved, I log on to the computer and become part of the online class. Following you through the class is easy as your instructions are clear and seeing you is like you are in my lounge room.
So thank you again,
Tina
Hi Maria
Just a short note to thank you for the on-line yoga classes during this time of isolation. Something to look forward to and keep me in practice.
Really appreciate the classes on these cold mornings when it would be easy to ‘give it a miss’. Miss the company but on-line has a lot going for it.

Maria is a wonderful & warm-hearted yoga teacher. Her yoga class has a good structure with pranayama breathing, exercise for each level and at the end of the class a peaceful, relaxing shavasa. She has follower all over the world, I join her online from switzerland. During the Covid19 Lockdown, her yoga class online was really precious and helpful to me. If you‘re looking for a healthy and good doing yoga class, you‘re in right hands there with Maria. OM 🙏🏻🕉🧘🏻♀️ Léticia
It’s already two months since I teach the Yoga classes online via Zoom. 6 hatha yoga classes and 2 seniors classes per week, Monday to Thursday. Everybody participating so far is happy to practice in the comfort of their own home. We have people joining from Ipswich, Brisbane, Melbourne, Tasmania and overseas. Even though with restrictions easing, but the Winter weeks and short days approaching, I intend to continue all classes online only until end of July 2020.
If you didn’t have a chance to join us online yet, but would like to give it a try, please contact me. I can help you setting it up, and give you all the information for payment and log-in details.
The weekly schedule for the Zoom online Yoga classes is as follows, all the classes are 1 hour (60 minutes):
Monday 10am Hatha Yoga class
Tuesday 9am Hatha Yoga class
Tuesday 6pm Hatha Yoga class
Wednesday 9am Seniors Yoga class
Wednesday 4pm Hatha Yoga class
Thursday 6am Hatha Yoga class – early bird session
Our classes are relatively small with 5 – 20 persons per class.
I will review weekly, if we can keep the yoga classes going. And also discuss with those attending each class, how they feel about coming to Yoga and being out in public.
In general I will follow the guidelines and practices of the local gyms and other fitness/yoga classes on offer in Ipswich. Especially the PCYC Ipswich. As long as the classes run at the PCYC and I teach the weekly Yoga class on Wednesdays 6:30pm – 8pm at the PCYC Ipswich. We will keep all the Yoga classes in the Scout Halls in Eastern Heights and Booval going as well.
Of course should I feel unwell, I will cancel immediately !!
Please follow the daily Health and Hygiene guidelines & updates by the health professionals and experts.
We are all in this together. Yoga helps reduce stress and keeps us calm.

Zinnia in our front garden. Silkstone, March 2020.
Starting on Thursday morning 6th of February 2020 we’ll have a new yoga class at 6am – 7am.
At the Scout Hall in Cameron Park, Easton Street, Booval.
This class will run through the months of February and March. Then we’ll decide, if and how long it will continue, as the days get shorter. Maybe into April and May, before Winter.
In any case, if you are interested in this early morning yoga class, please join as much as possible. The interest has been good, for an early morning yoga class. Now you just need to show up and roll out your mat.
The cost for the class is $15, or a tick on your class pass.
60 minutes hatha yoga class. We will practice the Sun Salutation, basic yoga postures & stretches, and a short final relaxation. To get you ready for a joyful, motivated start into the new day.
