      <image:title>About - Why Name a yoga studio ‘Axle’?</image:title>
      <image:caption>In Sanskrit the word for pain or suffering is ‘duhka’ which translated is ‘bad axle hole’. The word for joy is ‘sukha’ which is a ‘well axle hole’. Joy and suffering are necessary aspects of life and we cannot define one without the other. A healthy life embraces both and finds balance between the two. Metaphorically speaking, we are the axle in the axle hole, the centre of the wheel assembly. Whether we travel smoothly or roughly depends on the spokes, or in this metaphor the eight limbs of yoga attaching the hub to the wheel which all rotate around the axle. Continuing with the metaphor, enlightenment, or liberation from the stories the senses tell the mind, is a smoothly spinning or well supported at rest wheel when the mind finds equanimity and the physical body is in balance. Everyone is able to benefit from yoga and you are invited to learn more by joining a class. The first yoga sutra of Patanjali who put the practice into a written form states, “In the now yoga begins”. There is no need to prepare. You are ready and welcome as you are now. Find out how yoga is not separate to our busy lives, but a way to find balance in all the things we do. Axle Yoga opened in January 2021. Watch this website grow with time.
