Independents lobbiedon hospital parking cost
Churchlands MP LizConstable could hold thekey to scrapping excessiveparking charges at QEII,Princess Margaret, KingEdward Memorial and othermetropolitan hospitals.
The former education min-ister, who was dumped fromthe Cabinet earlier this yearby Premier Colin Barnett,is one of four Independentsin Parliament targeted byhealth service unions as partof a campaign to have the gov-ernment-sanctioned chargesoverturned.About 80 hospital staff and even tradies working onhospital construction tookpart in a union-organiseddemonstration outside SirCharles Gairdner Hospital’son Wednesday.Opposition health spokesmanRoger Cook and union bossesurged them, and the rest of their membership, to lobbythe Independent members tosupport disallowance motionsbefore both houses of parlia-ment to scrap the fees.“In 2009-10 the governmentcollected more than $1.8 mil-lion in revenue from park-ing fees, but in 2011-12 thatincreased to more than $8.5million,” Mr Cook said.“Under the Act, the ministercan charge to cover the costof providing and maintainingcarparks, but not on a costrecovery basis.“What the joint committeefound was that the minsterhas overstepped the Act andthat when he set down thesecharges they were illegal andthat he is collecting taxes, notparking fees, which are comingout of the pockets of hospitalstaff and visitors.”Mr Cook said the cross-partycommittee – which publishedits report last week – wasunanimous in its findingsthat increases in parking feesimposed by the state govern-ment about 18 months agowere illegal.Last week, the POST reportedthat the trust running the QEIIsite collected $3.5 million fromparking charges in the pastfinancial year, up from $1.8million for the year before, byincreasing fees.Caroline Smith, of UnitedVoice (WA), said the unionhad joined with the HealthServices Union and other un-ions 18 months ago to deal wththe impact increased parkingcharges were having on theunions’ 800 to 1000 membersbased at QEII.“We represent workers at thelower end of the health system,people earning between $40,000and $50,000 – workers who donot have a choice about wherethey can park, or work shift anddepend on public transport,which in itself is expensive andinadequate,” she said.“We heard today from oneof our members who said shedidn’t feel safe at the bus stopin the dark hours.“They want to increase park-ing by another $35 a week,which is more than enough towipe out any pay increase ourmembers have got in the lasttwo years.”

Loreto Year 3 students Charlotte White and Mathew Wood tried on someof the firefighters’ gear with a hand from Claremont’s Kim Thorson.
Walton quits over planning, Jualbup
A Subiaco councillorhas quit partly because of the council’s treatment of Indigenous people in itsdecisions about the LakeJualbup wetland.
Sandra Walton, an accountant,stood down last week from herCentral ward seat, which she wonin last October’s elections.She was not at Tuesdaynight’s corporate, communityand technical service commit-tee meeting.Ms Walton said this weekshe did not want to talk indetail about the reasons forher resignation, but made astatement.In it she said she had ago-nised over quitting.“However, in the end, familymust come first,” her state-ment said.“I apologise, in particular,to all those who voted for meat the last election.“I began to question my in-volvement with council whenthe wishes of this country’sIndigenous people were exten-sively overridden in regard tothe Jualbup wetland proposeddevelopment.”Ms Walton’s statement saidthere had been several oc-casions when her independ-ent views did not fit in withSubiaco council’s “majoritypolitical skew”, leaving herunable to be effective.She said in her statementthat a poor decision the coun-cil’s development servicescommittee made last weekwas the final straw.“In my view … at lastTuesday night’s DSC meeting,... one resident’s proposeddevelopment in the Centralward was singled out and acondition imposed on it that,to date, to my knowledge, hasnot been imposed on any otherresident,” she said.“It should be noted that an-other development being consid-ered on the same night with verysimilar issues did not have thiscondition imposed on it.”Mayor Heather Hendersonpraised Ms Walton’s work andcontribution to Subiaco andsaid there would be a postal by-election in four months to fillthe Central ward vacancy.

Absolute Beginner Yoga
This beginner level class or workshop is designed exclusively for new yoga students. Enjoy a supportive class environment as you are introduced to the basics of yoga and build a foundation for your practice. We will cover standard yoga postures and positioning, the art and benefits of yogic breathing, and the use of props such as blankets and bolsters. Loose, comfortable clothing and bare feet are recommended! The class may or may not include music.
Exhale Slow Flow
Exhale slow flow is perfect for both starting a new practice and enhancing an existing one. This dynamic class focuses on a detailed breakdown of yoga postures and pose alignment. Build strength and flexibility as you find the challenge that’s right for you. The class may or may not include music.
Exhale Vinyasa Flow
This class offers a flowing practice appealing to experienced yoga students comfortable with yoga postures and sun salutations. Exhale vinyasa flow integrates breath and movement, inner and outer alignment, and strength and flexibility. Class is accompanied by music for a rejuvenating and balancing effect.
Music Yoga Flow
This class is tailored to the seasoned student who likes to sweat and be challenged both at the physical and mental level. Teaching emphasizes the linking of breath to movement, encouraging a meditation in motion through a steady and consistent flow from pose to pose. Each class is set to a unique music mix blending rock, reggae, hip hop, blues, world beats and current music hits, and offers an inspiring message and a deeply relaxing finish. Get ready to let go!
Exhale Yin
Exhale yin is appropriate for students of all ages, fitness, and flexibility levels. Absolute beginners to yoga are welcome! The class offers an excellent complement to other yoga or Core Fusion® classes as well as sports and independent exercise. Using long, passive holds, Yin works on the deep, dense connective tissues of the body - the tendons, ligaments and cartilage - which are difficult to energize and open. A deep, passive practice settles you into these poses for extended timeframes. Flexibility is increased as joints and muscles rehabilitate and restore.
PranaVayu
PranaVayu is offered at both the beginner and the more advanced levels, making it an excellent match for all yogis. Class focuses on traditional breathing, or pranayama, as well as a full warm-up and cool-down cycle designed to enhance flexibility and muscle recovery. A specific sequence of poses is practiced to focus on all important ranges of motion. Every PranaVayu class concludes with 15 minutes of guided meditation in savasana – the perfect restoration.

Regular and disciplined practice of yoga is a powerful tool to relieve the stresses of modern-day life and promote total physical, emotional and spiritual well-being.

Well, Iyengar yoga:
The core principles of Iyengar yoga are precision, attention to detail, and a focus on body alignment. Aids such as blocks, belts and bolsters are frequently used to enable students to perform asanas correctly and safely, minimising the risk of injury or strain.
Iyengar yoga is named after B K S Iyengar, one of the world’s leading yoga teachers. Indeed, so significant has Mr Iyengar’s impact been that in 2004 he was named in Time magazine as one of the top 100 most influential people in the world. Born in 1918, Mr Iyengar took up yoga as a boy to overcome serious physical disabilities. He went on to evolve a complete system of yoga, based on the 1,700 year old philosophy and postures advocated by the sage Pantanjali.
Mr Iyengar developed highly effective ways of applying postures to ailments, diseases and disorders such as chronic backache, high blood pressure, insomnia and immunodeficiency. Iyengar yoga is now frequently used in both preventative and complementary medicine to alleviate symptoms in a wide range of medical problems such as physical injuries, osteoarthritis, as well as depression, anxiety and other psychological disorders.
What the press says about yoga
In 1975 the Ramamani Iyengar Memorial Yoga Institute was founded in Pune, India and is now a worldwide organisation with 180 institutes, and over 2,000 fully trained teachers in more than 40 countries.
Now 93 years old, Mr Iyengar (‘Guruji’ to his millions of students) still practises every day in the yoga studio, and also travels the world to inspire people about yoga, whilst his son, daughter and grandchildren continue his teaching and research work at the Institute. Although a world-wide organisation, the Iyengar Institute functions as one big, global family. Postures are constantly being reviewed, their effectiveness enhanced, specific ailments targeted. Senior teachers travel to India regularly to study, bringing back the latest ideas to pass on to their students. Anyone taking up Iyengar yoga immediately becomes part of this global family, and can be confident that what they are learning is based on sound, safe and scientific principles.

I have attended classes of lots of teachers but Carolyn is without doubt one of the best teachers I have ever known. I am constantly amazed at her skill in dealing with classes which range from total beginners to experienced students, somehow she manages to give everyone individual attention!
