GABRIELLE STUART AND TOM DOUDNEYFreedom campers at Addington Park have sparked complaints by leaving rubbish lying around, using the grounds as a toilet and blocking up the car parking when they are not supposed to be there.
But no freedom campers have been fined for breaking the rules.
Addington resident Sue Gor-ton said a number of people were not happy about the free-dom campers at the park since a new bylaw was introduced in
December.The park is one of three ar-
eas where freedom camping is allowed, after the city council cracked down after problems in New Brighton last year.
Windsport Park in Ferrymead, and the Lower Styx River mouth.
Campers can stay five nights and can stay from one hour before sunset to 9am the next day.
Mrs Gorton said with rubbish bins overflowing and parking
spaces often full from 3pm, resi-dents didn’t be-lieve the park was well set up for freedom camp-ing.
“We are concerned about the hygiene down there and [allowing freedom camping in the park] has just shifted the problem from one area to another, which is in our backyard at the moment. There needs to
be a long-term solution, not just moving it from neighbourhood to neighbourhood,” she said.
City council regulatory com-pliance acting head Tracey Wes-ton said the park was monitored every day.
She said they recorded the vehicle registrations of every-one staying at the site, so they could monitor how long people were staying.
Spreydon-Heathcote Com-munity Board chairman Paul McMahon said there had been
problems when the bylaw was first put in place in December.
The toilets had initially been locked at night and there had not been enough rubbish bins, which had sparked problems, he said.
“But they’ve got those (rub-bish bins) now and the toilets are kept open, so it has improved,” he said.
“Having people visit Christchurch as an affordable place to come to is a good thing, so long as they are abiding by the bylaws,” he said.

A Sydenham group wants the city council earthquake recovery plan for the area to be included in new legislation, under fears the suburbs will be forgotten about.
Sydenham Quarter has made a submission on the Greater Christchurch Regeneration bill saying it is vital for the plan to be included otherwise the job won’t get done.
The proposed bill exits the Canterbury Earthquake Recov-ery Authority out of the city’s recovery and could see control of the rebuild in the city coun-cil’s hands.
New Brighton Master Plan has been included specifically in
the proposal as a key objective to jump-start its recovery.
But Sydenham Quarter secretary Judy Stack said in the submission Sydenham had been equally affected.
“The New Brighton Master Plan has been included and we feel we should be as well,” she said.
She said the Sydenham Mas-ter Plan had no “teeth”.
“It does not have the power to say this is what we want for our area or stop things we don’t want to happen,” she said.
If it was included in the bill it would allow all the ideas pro-posed in the plan to be imple-mented.
City councillor Tim Scandrett said he was confident it would be a mere “formality” to get it on the bill.
“The community board, city council and the Sydenham Quarter is all on the same page with this one, we want it in,” he said.
Ms Stack said Colombo St was one of the “gateways to the city” and the area had a lot of historical sites that have to be preserved.
“We don’t want to be forgot-ten,” she said.
“We want a city of beauty. We had one and we want one back.”
Fears Sydenham will be forgotten
Call to include quake recovery plan in bill
DETAILED PLAN: Sydenham Quarter has made a submission on the Greater Christchurch Regeneration bill saying it is vital for the master plan to be included otherwise the job won’t get done.

ALLEGED ASSAULTA person was taken to Christ-church Hospital after an alleged assault on Harrow St, Phillipstown. St John sent an ambulance to the scene around 12.30pm on Thursday and took the person to hospital with mod-erate injuries.
WOMAN INJURED IN CRASHA woman was taken to Christ-church Hospital after a three-car crash on Thursday. St John sent an ambulance to the scene on Ferry Rd, near Olliviers Rd, around 3.30pm. The woman, in her 40s, was taken to hospital with moderate injuries.
STORMWATER REPAIRSFerry Rd, Woolston, will have storm water repairs carried out between Hopkins and Dampier Sts. Two-way traffic will be maintained but there could be delays. Burlington St, Syden-ham, is closed to traffic going south between Brougham and Colombo Sts for wastewater repairs until work is complete.
CLARIFICATIONOn January 11 the Southern View reported that community boards around the city had spent $19,196 over a 12-month period on food during meetings. This was incorrect. The actual figure spent on food was $19,730 . The Southern View apologises for the error.

Concern has been raised over the months regarding the high number of canada goose and other waterfowl in waterways and the pollution they cause. Environment Canterbury chief operating officer Don Rule explains what is being done about the issue.
We acknowledge the water quality issues at Kerrs Reach, in all of the Avon River/Otakaro and in many of the waterways in greater Christchurch.
Water quality is affected by waterfowl at Kerrs Reach and elsewhere. The prolific macrophyte and scum growth there indicates high levels of nutrients in the water, which promotes plant growth.
Numbers of canada goose are highly variable. In the city they tend to congregate at Travis Wetland, the Christchurch wastewater treatment ponds and along the Avon River/Otakaro. Since the earthquakes their distribution has changed with the increase in open, grassed areas, an attractive habitat for canada geese.
Unlike the black swan, canada goose is no longer classified as a game bird under the Wildlife Act.
This means there is no single agency with responsibility for the species, so its management within a particular area such as Kerrs Reach is a challenge.
A group of organisations is working to determine how best to manage canada geese. Christchurch International Airport Ltd is required by statute to manage threats to aircraft safety.
This means the birds establishing around the city and at Te Waihora/Lake Ellesmere are a problem for the airport.
They are also a problem for farmers growing crops, and a pollution threat to waterways like the Avon River/Otakaro.
Short-term options include organised culls, while a medium to longer term option may be a pest management plan.
A number of approaches are being
considered. All the relevant agencies are working through options and solutions.
We are confident that this work, as well as the wider water quality actions being taken by the Christchurch-West Melton Canterbury Water Management Strategy Zone Committee and other groups, will in time deliver the outcomes Dale Maher and other recreational water users are looking for.
There is currently a discussion document out on a future Regional Pest Management Plan for Canterbury. Go to www.ecan.govt.nz for details. Contributions are welcome until February 28.

Reader Julie Papps responds to concerns over quarries in the west of the city applying to dig up to 4m below the groundwater line.
I don’t like the sound of this – digging deeper and then filling the hole, with random fill.
Who will police that? No one I’m guessing – just like many of the other landfills in Christchurch, of which people are now finding out with the info now on their Lim Reports.
In reading other countries’ problems with their underground water supply, ie: USA – fracking, we have to protect ours from future problems. If it all goes wrong, there is no turning back.
We are so, so lucky with our water supply, so far, and we should now be focusing on conserving and protecting it.
Our above ground waterways are not good, please leave the underground supply alone.

CHELSEA DANIELS
A man who has collected toys for 54 years is getting ready to share his large treasure trove, opening a gallery in Waltham next month.
Alan Preston, the man behind the Toy Collector gallery, has more than 20,000 toys ready to be showcased at the Falsgrave St site.
He is a self-confessed “big kid” and has toys ranging from old to new, used to mint condi-tion.
Mr Preston (right) gives chil-dren a glimpse into the toys of yesteryear, and what playtime was like long before electronic gaming.
“I was trying to show kids that they can get back into their toys, instead of the computers and the phones. (They should) look after their toys and have fun with them,” he said.
It has cost him around a quar-ter of a million dollars over the last couple of years to get the gallery set up – collecting toys and getting custom-made show cases from Auckland.
The avid collector’s lifelong hobby came from humble beginnings – an obsession with toy cars.
“My favourite toys when I
was that age was the Matchbox toys that were imported from England. They’d only come in so often, you were only allowed to buy four each time. So, we had the whole family go down – my sister hated it,” he said.
• The Toy Collector opens to the public on February 6 at 90 Falsgrave St. Tickets are $10 for adults, $5 for children and $25 for family.

Woolston resident Cathie Schofield has been awarded a $1000 grant to help her become a tradie.
The mother-of-two was awarded through the Christ-church Polytechnic Institute of Technology Foundation.
After spending several years out of the workforce raising her two children, Ms Schofield en-rolled in CPIT in February 2014 in a level 2 pre-trade course in furniture and joinery.
She went on to complete level 3 and 4 training before complet-ing her training in 2015.
Taking the knowledge she earned as a trades student, she was employed by MWF Joinery in July 2015.
The $1000 grant from the CPIT Foundation was in recognition of her commitment to and success within the trades industry.
Phillipstown resident Cina Wigmore was awarded a Karen Lewis grant for her efforts in food and hospitality.
Ms Wigmore was awarded $1500 as a contribution to her living costs and this year’s study at CPIT.
In addition to the above grants,
CPIT Foundation supported The Rakatahi Awards by provid-ing high-achieving Maori and Pacific Island high school stu-dents the opportunity to attend Oprah’s show: An Evening with Oprah, along with a leader’s lunch in Auckland.
Hillmorton High School stu-dent Tiare Scott was one of ten who went along to see the iconic American speaker.
CPIT Foundation chairman Carl Pascoe said foundation trustees are looking forward to another wonderful year support-ing the CPIT community.
“The CPIT Foundation works hard to support those wanting to achieve in their chosen fields of study,” he said.

Actor to bring own characters
Hi Sebastian, well done on get-ting the role of Hamlet. Where does this role sit with the other ones you have played?
Hamlet is a great role. It has got a lot of range and different emotions in it. It is obviously
very well-known – one of the best-known pieces
in English literature. Last
year I played Richard III and there are some similarities.
So you have had a bit of experi-ence in the Shake-spearean genre.
A little bit. Richard III
was the first
Shakespearean play I performed in. Before that I had done mu-sicals and plays particularly at MUSOC and DRAMASOC at Canterbury University. These two plays have been the first time launching into the classical genre.
Just for any person who doesn’t know the story of Hamlet, could you just briefly give me an overview of it?
Hamlet is a young prince of Denmark. The play was set several hundred years ago around Shakespearean time. At the start of the play Hamlet is mourning the death of his father the king. He is particularly upset that his mother within two months has married his uncle. He quickly learns his uncle had something to do with the death of his father. He is visited by a ghost and is prompted to take revenge. He pushes himself into taking revenge and eventually killing the uncle – bit of a spoiler.
Were you surprised you received the lead role?
You never expect to get a role because there are so many other people that would have been just as great. I mean the great thing about auditions is you can have a lot of fun. If you don’t get the part, you can go in front of a few people and try out a character you wouldn’t do otherwise.
I take it you would want to bring your own character to the show seeing there have been so many plays recently.
Yes. And each time I have seen it people have done it differently. I think the thing about Hamlet is while there are a lot of qualities about him you wouldn’t particularly like, they are things you can understand him doing. Few of us have had our parents murdered or had their mother marry their uncle. But you can understand the idea of jealously and empathy.
Do you have a favourite quote from Hamlet and why?
There was a line we were going to trim out for length factors – the full Hamlet show is three hours. A bit long but it goes: “What a piece of work is a man! How noble in reason, how infinite in faculty! In form and moving how express and admirable! In action how like an angel, in apprehension how like a God! The beauty of the world. The paragon of animals.” That is something that had a lot of meaning to me as a character.
Going back a bit, when did your performing arts career start for you?
A part from being in a play at primary school when I was six, it all started when I was at Canterbury University. At DRAMASOC I wrote a full-length play for orientation a few years ago. It was a great environment to get experience and put on some great theatre.
Did you study arts at univer-sity?
I did a bachelor of arts and political science and law but no I never really studied theatre. It has always been on the side for me. I had always wanted to give it a go but hadn’t got round to it.
Top Dog Theatre will be presenting Hamlet from February. Georgia O’Connor-Harding spoke to Addington resident Sebastian Boyle on landing the lead role, what he would like to see for young people in the city and his encounter with the late actor Alan Rickman

That is the nice thing about being at university – not just what you do in the classroom but around it as well.
What is one of the most memorable or horrific things that has happened to you on stage?
The last time I did an outdoor show – it was a really fantastic thing to put on but this night we were performing the wind was a lot stronger than we anticipated. Our entire set basically collapsed. Our backstage crew and director were there for about the last half hour of the show holding up the backdrop. If you have ever tried to hold your arms over your head for a long time that is fairly challenging.
What would you like to see more of in the city for the performing arts?
The future is scary. I think I would love to see in the city more opportunities for young people coming out of high school or university to stage shows themselves. Something where people can put on sto-ries that mean something to them. I think a lot of people get involved at high school and then as work life comes on they
either don’t have the time to do it or can’t see the opportunity.
Would you agree the per-forming arts world can be quite influential on issues, everyday life and change people’s opinions?
I think a lot of it is empathy and understanding for others.
A great play can put you in the mindset of someone you may have never thought about before. The reason actors speak mono-logues often is to give you a good look into their thoughts.
What would an example for you be?
Playing Richard III was
interesting. Richard is looked on historically as being a vil-lainous character. The way the Shakespearean play was written casts him this light as well. But we were performing this last year when they found his body under a supermarket car park in Britain. It made me think more about who he was rather than just a vil-lain. Looking at the environment he was in and the challenges he faced personally you can see why he acted the way he did.
On a more fun note – is there any actor that has inspired you or that you would like to work with if you could?
One actor is relevant in my mind as it has been in the news. I saw a play in New York called Seminar that Alan Rickman was in. Admirably it was like ooh, I am seeing a famous ac-tor perform. He was actually coming down with a bit of a throat infection or something. But it was amazing to see how commanding he was on stage. And not in the typical way. It was just that quiet confidence. I can’t even analyse what he did to come across like that. I hung out backstage and got his autograph – such a nice moment.
It just makes you think there are cool things you can do on stage without being big or flashy.
You have done a bit of trav-elling.
A little bit. New York is a place I have always wanted to go to. Time Square was a spec-tacle. At the same time I enjoy walking around neighbourhoods and each time I would go round a corner there would be some-thing new I didn’t expect. Living in Christchurch it is a different sense but you see what is emerg-ing.
And lastly if you have any spare time, what do you enjoy doing most?
Getting to perform, act and direct is cool. I like to go to the gym which is a nice wind down outside it. I love writing – I used to write for a publication called The Civilian. I used to be the editor of CANTA magazine and that is how I got to know the editor of The Civilian.
You haven’t thought of pur-suing a career in journalism?
No, I mean I have edited the magazine and worked in com-munications but I don’t quite have the go-get-it spirit that a good reporter needs.

Baking and the Youth Olympics was the order of the day last week at Youthtown Christchurch. The kids made and baked the rings of the Olympics, before
chowing down on their creations.
IN THE MAKING:
Rolling, cutting and
shaping the rings
was an important
step.
JUST RIGHT: The rings were baked before being taken to the Olympics.
OPENING CEREMONY: Each team made their own flag which they led out onto the gymnasium.

GETTING STUCK IN: Girl Guides helped out with everything from mixing paint to packing up.
BUZZ: Bumble bees made an appearance on the day and helped out with the painting.
TEAMWORK: Everyone got involved with the painting of the resource centre.
PINK EVERYWHERE: Pansies, ferns, leaves and daffodils were all painted on.
The fences outside the Linwood Resource Centre got a new look thanks to some some young volunteers.
Volunteering Canterbury was approached by members of Girl Guiding New Zealand, who offered to help out with a community project during their recent jamboree.
They joined in with the city council’s Off-the-Wall programme and came up with the idea to help repaint the Linwood Resource Centre.
They repainted the fences with pansies, ferns, daffodils and fruits.

Girl guides do a bloomin’ good job
WONDERFUL: Brightly coloured flowers have replaced the once dreary grey fence outside the Linwood Resource Centre.

Q A&What kind of food is poutine?It’s a fast food fromQuebec,consisting of thick-cut deep-fried potato chips toppedwith fresh cheese curds (orfailing that, small chunks ofmozzarella cheese) and a
light brown gravy, servedpiping hot. Pronouncedpoot-in rather than poot-een, it’s popular with late-night Canadian partygoers,and often sold from foodtrucks as well as chains likeMcDonalds and KFC in thatpart of the world.Apparently poutine wasfirst put together in the1950s, with several smalltowns claiming to be thebirthplace.
Why do vegetables need to besalted before pickling?The salt draws out water,which enables the picklingliquid to penetrate thevegetablesmorethoroughly. This adds to thetexture, flavour andkeeping qualities of thepickle. Depending on therecipe, salt (preferablyplain rather than iodised) is
either used on its own, ormade into a brine first. Thestrength of brine can vary,but if your recipe doesn’tspecify amounts, allow 50gsalt per 600mls water. Fordry salting, use around 125gsalt per 500g preparedvegetables.

Take baby steps to yoga bliss

By Rachel Grunwell
STRETCHOUT: I use yoga tohelp prepare formarathonsbut I can also tapmy inner zen. PHOTO/REBECCA GRUNWELL
“I can’t do yoga”. This is what lots ofpeople tell me.“But anyone can do yoga,” I reply.Many people reckon they need to
be “flexible” or a circus star tostretch. But that’s not what yoga isabout. It’s about just feeling a stretchwhere it benefits you.And if you are in a class with an
experienced yoga teacher, then theywill give different options with eachyogamove. This is so you can tapinto the level that best benefits yourbody.I work with lots of runners (I take
‘yoga for runners’ classes in
Auckland) and so I tell my yogistudents that they would neverexpect to run amarathon overnight;so why expect to nail the first yogaclass you try?We’re so hard onourselves!Like all things, it takes time to
improve.Nomatter what age or ability,
anyone can tap into the benefits ofthis ancient practice. It’s especiallyuseful for runners and athletes tohelp re-balance the body, but themind benefits are as big as the bodybenefits too.I use yoga to strengthen, stretch
and tonemy body for marathonrunning, but I also use it to calmmy
mind, de-stress, detox and to reachmy “bliss place”.But it wasn’t always like that. I
used to wobble on every balance poseand strength work would frustrateme, while inversions would infuriateme.But now I love it and it helps to
keepmy life a bit more balanced andfuels my happiness.So stop, drop and yoga sometime.
Give it a go.
Six simple ideas for happier living
QUALITYSLEEP: Theimportanceof sleep cannot beover-emphasised.
SAVINGMONEY andstaying fit aretraditional NewYear’sresolutions, but overly
packed schedules and thematerialistic focus of modernday life are inspiring a newgoal for many people: to livehappier in 2016 and beyond.Health and performance
expert and On Target LivingpresidentMatt Johnsonoffers six surprisingly simpleyet profoundly effectiveways to boost overallhappiness.
1Make sleep a priority:Getting seven to eighthours of sleep each night
is critical for the body toproduce hormones that triggerhappiness, explains Johnson.
“I am a big fan of alwaysgoing to bed with a positiveattitude,” Johnson says. “If yougo to bed angry, worried orstressed, that tends to comeback the next day. Do whatyou can before bed to resetyour mood. Read, take a bath,exercise or talk face-to-face.Try to avoid screen time.”
2Make more time forfamily: “Over the last 20years, family time has
vanished. Sporting events,projects, work and technologyhave swallowed this time,”says Johnson. “Family face-to-face time is the mostimportant part of a healthyfamily relationship and
happiness.” Johnsonsuggests planning familydinner two to three times aweek. “When we start to eatdinner as a family in the home,our health and happiness willfollow,” he notes.
3Carve out whitespace:This is time you dedicateto yourself to refresh,
unplug and rejuvenate. Thiscould be making time to doyoga, enjoy a hobby, read,meditate or take a bath.
“People who have hobbiesand activities that give thembalance tend to be happier. Ifyour hobby is texting,checking social media orwatching TV, this will set youup for a feeling of emptiness.These things are fine in shortperiods, but too much will takeaway what life is giving us.”
4Achieve work/lifebalance: With theexpanse of the internet
and mobile commuting,
workers are now connectedmore than ever before. But thiscan get out of control whenanswering emails 24/7.“We all want to be successful,but with anything you needproper balance. If you look atprofessional athletes, the bestones try to find activitiesoutside of their sport that helpthem stay hungry, engagedand excited.”Johnson has these work/lifebalance suggestions:■ Don’t check email after 8pm
■ Go on a date night or familynight■ Exercise at a time that fitsyour schedule■ Walk during lunch■ Have a monthly massage
5Fuel happiness fromwithin: “I believe wehave more behavioural
and mental health issues thanwe should, and a big part ofthis is the lack of propernutrients,” says Johnson,adding an estimated 91 percent of people do not getenough omega 3s.
6 Embrace gratitude:Thinking of the things youare grateful for can have
a dramatic effect on yoursatisfaction and overallhappiness. Do this daily asyou wake up or make it aconversation you have withyour children right before bed.
“Telling yourself you aregrateful for your health, family,friends, job and life gives youthat pat on the back we allneed,” he says.
“I also think we don’t tellpeople how much weappreciate them until they aregone. I encourage everyone towrite a handwritten letter toone person each year whomade a huge impact in theirlife. They may not know ormaybe you don’t tell themoften enough. My last letterwas to my Mum. She is theglue in our family.” — BPT

This is a good indicator from our bodies, that the holiday routine was somewhat different. Perhaps you sit a lot for work and you
were on the go or, you are normally more active and the holiday break was more sedentary. Either way the sooner you pay attention to these signals the easier it will be to deal with it.
So what can you do to ward off pain and stiffness and boost your energy and alertness? 10 simple stretching exercises at your desk that will release tension from head to toe. They take only a few minutes. Set the alarm on your cell phone or computer to go off every hour to remind you it’s time to get up and stretch.
Just stand up and sit down - no handsIf you stand up and sit down (over and over) without using your hands it can be a challenge, do it while you’re on the phone; no one will know.
Shrug your shoulders - to release the neck and shouldersInhale deeply and shrug your shoulders, lifting them high up to your ears. Hold. Release and drop. Repeat three times.
Loosen the hands with air circlesClench both fists, stretching both hands
out in front of you.Make circles in the air, first in one direction, to the count of ten. Then reverse the circles.Shake out the hands.
Point your fingers - good for hands, wrist, and forearmsStretch your left hand out in front of you, pointing fingers toward the floor. Use your right hand to increase the stretch, pushing your fingers down and toward the body. Be gentle do the same with the other hand. Now stretch your left hand out straight in front, wrist bent, with fingers pointing skyward. Use your right hand to increase the stretch, pulling the fingers back toward your body. Do the same on the other side.
Release the upper body with a torso twistInhale and as you exhale, turn to the right and grab the back of your chair with your right hand, and grab the arm of the chair with your left. With eyes level, use your grasp on the chair to help twist your torso around as far to the back of the room as possible. Hold the twist and let your eyes continue the stretch see how far around the room you can peer. Slowly come back to facing forward. Repeat on the other side.
Do leg extensionsGrab the seat of your chair to brace yourself
As we return to our normal daily routines after the holidays you may begin to find the odd ache or pain creeping in.
and extend your legs straight out in front of you so they are parallel to the floor.Flex and point your toes five times. Release. Repeat.
Stretch your back with a “big hug”Hug your body, placing the right hand on your left shoulder and the left hand on your right shoulder. Breathe in and out, releasing the area between your shoulder blades.
Cross your arms - for the shoulders and upper backExtend one arm out straight in front of you. With the other hand, grab the elbow of the outstretched arm and pull it across your chest, stretching your shoulder and upper back muscles. Hold. Release. Stretch out the other arm in front of you - repeat.
Stretch your back and shoulders with a “leg hug”Sit on the edge of your chair (if it has wheels, wedge the chair against the desk or
wall to make sure it does not roll). Put your feet together, flat on the floor.Lean over, chest to knees, letting your arms dangle loosely to the floor. Release your neck. Now bring your hands behind your legs, right hand grasping left wrist, forearm (or elbow if you can reach that far), left hand grasping the right. Feel the stretch in your back, shoulders and neck. Hold. Release your hands to the floor again. Repeat three times or as often as it feels good.
Look up to release upper bodySit up tall in your chair, or stand up. Stretch your arms overhead and interlock your fingers. Turn the palms to the ceiling as you lift your chin up, tilt your head back, and gaze up at the ceiling, too. Inhale, exhale, release.

Hip pain: Do I have arthritis or
The team at Physical Sense in Sydenham sees clients with a range of symptoms but many of their middle-aged and senior clients visit
complaining of pain in one or both hips. Physiotherapist Ietje van Stolk suggests that
a major part of the pain could be due to muscle pain rather than simply arthritis. “Even if an x-ray shows arthritis, the reason for the pain may be the muscles around the joint,” she explains. Alternatively, a back muscle could also be the cause, as shown in the image.
Ietje recalls one case where an 89 year old client with severe arthritis who walked with a stick, told her, “I will end up in a wheelchair, I cannot put any weight through my right leg due to pain in my hip and buttock”. “Within 4 treatments, she was walking with her stick but without the severe pain,” says Ietje. “The arthritis was one of the factors that made her muscles spasm but the other was that older people move less and the flexed position the hip is in when we sit is particularly bad for the hip.” Ietje is happy with the fact that although the client was 89 and could have been “given up on” or told to live with the pain, she made a difference to her health and wellbeing.
At Physical Sense, hands-on techniques (massage and triggerpoint deactivation techniques) are used to release the muscles. The client also gets a home exercise program
designed to mobilize and stretch the hip, strengthen the important core muscles and increase general strength and balance. They teach a movement sequence that stretches the hip in all directions whilst the client is able to lie safely on their bed, perfect for older or less mobile clients.
In many cases having the muscles released and being taught how to maintain it, is enough
a back Hip muscle that causes hip pain Hip muscle that causes hip pain
(the crosses are the areas of the muscle spasms, the red areas is where the pain is felt)
to stay on top of the problem. If severe arthritis is the underlying cause, some maintenance therapy may be necessary, but that is often more affordable and, for older patients, better tolerated than surgery. In very few treatments the client will know if it is going to work for them or not, without financial commitment.
Physical Sense Gym & Physio is located at 300 Colombo Street, Sydenham. There is a bus
stop in front of the door and there is ample parking. To enquire about specialised exercise classes or physiotherapy treatment, phone 377-2577 or visit www.triggerpoints.co.nz.

At Physical Sense we have good results with releasing the muscles (with hands on techniques) and increasing your strength and flexibility. Within a few treatments you will know if this is what you need.

Take baby steps to yoga bliss“I can’t do yoga”. This is what lots of people tell me. “But anyone can do yoga,” I reply.
Many people reckon they need to be “flexible” or a circus star to stretch. But that’s not what yoga is about. It’s about just feeling a stretch where it benefits you.
And if you are in a class with an ex-perienced yoga teacher, then they will give different options with each yoga move. This is so you can tap into the level that best benefits your body.
I work with lots of runners (I take ‘yoga for runners’ classes in Auckland) and so I tell my yogi students that they would never expect to run a marathon overnight; so why expect to nail the first yoga class you try? We’re so hard on ourselves!
Like all things, it takes time to improve.
No matter what age or ability, anyone can tap into the benefits of this ancient practice. It’s especially useful for runners and athletes to help re-balance the body, but the mind benefits are as big as the body benefits too.
I use yoga to strengthen, stretch and tone my body for marathon running, but I also use it to calm my mind, de-stress, detox and to reach my “bliss place”.
But it wasn’t always like that. I used
to wobble on every balance pose and strength work would frustrate me, while inversions would infuriate me.
But now I love it and it helps to keep my life a bit more balanced and fuels my happiness.
So stop, drop and yoga sometime. Give it a go.

Six simple ideas for happier living
QUALITYSLEEP: Theimportanceof sleep cannot beover-emphasised.
SAVINGMONEY andstaying fit aretraditional NewYear’sresolutions, but overly
packed schedules and thematerialistic focus of modernday life are inspiring a newgoal for many people: to livehappier in 2016 and beyond.Health and performance
expert and On Target LivingpresidentMatt Johnsonoffers six surprisingly simpleyet profoundly effectiveways to boost overallhappiness.
1Make sleep a priority:Getting seven to eighthours of sleep each night
is critical for the body toproduce hormones that triggerhappiness, explains Johnson.
“I am a big fan of alwaysgoing to bed with a positiveattitude,” Johnson says. “If yougo to bed angry, worried orstressed, that tends to comeback the next day. Do whatyou can before bed to resetyour mood. Read, take a bath,exercise or talk face-to-face.Try to avoid screen time.”
2Make more time forfamily: “Over the last 20years, family time has
vanished. Sporting events,projects, work and technologyhave swallowed this time,”says Johnson. “Family face-to-face time is the mostimportant part of a healthyfamily relationship and
happiness.” Johnsonsuggests planning familydinner two to three times aweek. “When we start to eatdinner as a family in the home,our health and happiness willfollow,” he notes.
3Carve out whitespace:This is time you dedicateto yourself to refresh,
unplug and rejuvenate. Thiscould be making time to doyoga, enjoy a hobby, read,meditate or take a bath.
“People who have hobbiesand activities that give thembalance tend to be happier. Ifyour hobby is texting,checking social media orwatching TV, this will set youup for a feeling of emptiness.These things are fine in shortperiods, but too much will takeaway what life is giving us.”
4Achieve work/lifebalance: With theexpanse of the internet
and mobile commuting,
workers are now connectedmore than ever before. But thiscan get out of control whenanswering emails 24/7.“We all want to be successful,but with anything you needproper balance. If you look atprofessional athletes, the bestones try to find activitiesoutside of their sport that helpthem stay hungry, engagedand excited.”Johnson has these work/lifebalance suggestions:■ Don’t check email after 8pm
■ Go on a date night or familynight■ Exercise at a time that fitsyour schedule■ Walk during lunch■ Have a monthly massage
5Fuel happiness fromwithin: “I believe wehave more behavioural
and mental health issues thanwe should, and a big part ofthis is the lack of propernutrients,” says Johnson,adding an estimated 91 percent of people do not getenough omega 3s.
6 Embrace gratitude:Thinking of the things youare grateful for can have
a dramatic effect on yoursatisfaction and overallhappiness. Do this daily asyou wake up or make it aconversation you have withyour children right before bed.
“Telling yourself you aregrateful for your health, family,friends, job and life gives youthat pat on the back we allneed,” he says.
“I also think we don’t tellpeople how much weappreciate them until they aregone. I encourage everyone towrite a handwritten letter toone person each year whomade a huge impact in theirlife. They may not know ormaybe you don’t tell themoften enough. My last letterwas to my Mum. She is theglue in our family.” — BPT

CPIT Aoraki is calling for the public, graduates and staff to contribute their best memory or photo to a Memory Wall as a tribute to the two institutes. Bring them on the day or post them to our Facebook pages (‘CPITNZ’ and ‘aorakipolytechnic’).

Christchurch School of Music
2015 was a really busy year for the Christchurch School of Music with lots of exciting things happening.
In September the School celebrated its Diamond Jubilee – 60 years of providing excellent music tuition and ensemble opportunities to thousands
of Cantabrians.In December the School moved back
home onto the site of the old Music Centre. With the support of the Catholic Diocese, the school is renting four portable buildings on the site adjacent to Catholic Cathedral College where all the instrumental and voice teaching takes place on a Saturday morning and after school.
So along with its new branding, a new user-friendly website and a great new place to call home the CSM is in good heart and looking forward to a fantastic year of music making in 2016.
From pre-schoolers to septuagenarians, the CSM caters for a wide range of ages and musical styles offering opportunities
for group or individual tuition in all instruments and an ensemble to suit everyone. From orchestras, choirs, jazz and rock bands, world music ensembles, wind ensembles and
concert bands every taste is catered for. All ensembles take part in regular concerts including Saturday soirees and the popular annual Showcase Concert. Recitals where individuals can perform are also held regularly.
If you have always wanted to play an instrument but you’re not sure which one or you want to give your children a chance to have a go on all the instruments to help them decide, come along to our popular and free Try an Instrument Day on Saturday 30 January from 10am-12pm in the Hall at Catholic Cathedral College. You will get to hear the experts playing the instruments and then have a go yourself. Heaps of fun guaranteed and a great opportunity to find out what instrument really appeals. We look forward to seeing you soon.
Do your children lack self-confidence, or perhaps have so much energy that they need an outlet for it? Development
through drama is the ideal approach to teach confidence and channel youthful energy while building self-esteem.
The Helen O’Grady Drama Academy has been in New Zealand for 32 years. This highly regarded worldwide programme helps students aged 5 to 17 fulfil their potential by acting confidently and speaking clearly. This unique self-development programme helps achieve invaluable life skills. The confident, articulate child makes friends easily, accepts challenges and new directions. Confident children become well-rounded adults.
Our fully qualified teachers are trained in the Helen O’Grady Drama system. They ensure each child is encouraged
and valued in a warm, positive learning environment. Lessons stimulate and motivate students without the exam or peer group pressure. Weekly class activities include speech training, creative movement and improvisation. Our Youth Theatre programme encourages the development of leadership and organisational skills. Three terms of the year cover the self-development programme and in the fourth term, all students prepare a performance for parents and friends. We also offer Trinity College London examinations as an option for those who wish to pursue an international qualification.
Our safe, structured learning environment values student individuality and encourages team building. Most importantly, it’s great fun, too!

Building up skills while breaking down cultural barriers; that’s what Pasifika students working on improvements to a Pacific Trust Canterbury facility are doing, the trust’s community development advisor Noa Ellwood says.
CPIT Pasifika Trades Training students are working on the trust’s Pasifika Supported Playgroup facility in Aranui.
“For our community, the Pasifika Supported Playgroup creates a familiar environment with similar practices to kindergartens and pre-schools, to help prepare our children and educate our parents on the importance of early childhood learning. It helps break down those cultural barriers so that children and parents know what to expect outside their environment,” Ellwood said.
He was impressed with the level of competence and professionalism shown
Pasifika students demonstrate new skills by the students.
“They were awesome to work with. They really owned the project and under Karl’s guidance they used it as a learning opportunity to do it for themselves. The course provides an amazing chance for students to gain new skills.”
Pasifika civil trades students paved the playgroup’s outdoor area and will add a fence, seating and sail cloth later in 2016. CPIT Pasifika carpentry students will take their skills inside the centre this year, by building a partition to create separate sleeping and activity areas, as well as renovating the bathroom.
Students had also completed projects at Linwood College in Phillipstown and St James School in Aranui, along with community-based initiatives for the Tongan and Fijian communities.
“It’s an example of how these students are giving back to their community by contributing to the Christchurch rebuild while upskilling themselves for a better

Pasifika Trades Training is run in collaboration with leaders from the Pasifika community and government agencies with Pasifika church ministers playing a key role in nominating and offering pastoral support.
The programmes are open entry to anyone of Pasifika descent. For more information check out cpit.ac.nz/pasifika-trades-training.

Singing and music history are a feature of the WEA programme this term and all are welcome to attend. The popular ‘Singing for Pleasure’ course
with David O’Beirne continues on Tuesday lunchtimes, while ‘Italian Singing’ with Claudia Lues is on Thursday lunchtime.
‘Composers at War’ is a five-week course about some of the significant musicians who have suffered premature death or disablement through warfare. As well as reviewing the music and times of some of these composers the course tutors David Sell and Roger Buckton, will ask what might have been. ‘At times of war and persecution, composers have generally found themselves in invidious situations trying to balance the needs of a creative spirit with the requirements of patriotic duty, or even plain survival’, they say.
Philosophy is also on the menu at the WEA (Workers’ Educational Association) situated at 59 Gloucester Street. On Wednesday mornings Michael Couch continues his examination of ‘The Nature of Human Nature’, as he explores the ideas and assumptions of major modern philosophers and their intellectual impact – Darwin, Marx, Nietzsche, Sartre, Freud and Wittgenstein.
‘Learning to ask questions: in education, law, literature, politics, philosophy and theology’ is the topic for a five-week Saturday morning series led by Richard Dawson. ‘This
Music, philosophy and creation myths all
on offer at WEAcourse emerges from an interest in a range of people – including Nelson Mandela, Socrates, Augustine, Edmund Burke, Jane Austen’s heroines, Paul Freire, Janet Frame - who have a remarkable capacity to ask productive questions’, explains Richard. ‘What can we learn from great questioners? How do we learn from them? What will become of us in our inquiry?
Creation Myths’ is a five-week course where a number of different creation myths will be examined to see how different cultures have attempted to answer the big questions of ‘where did we come from?’ and ‘what is our purpose here on earth?’ Tutor Grant Pheloung, who taught in the ‘Great Books’ programme at Auburn University in Alabama, will also discuss whether the creation stories examined have any relevance for today.
Learn how to produce attractive and legible italic-based handwriting/lettering in a six-week course with tutor Ross Gray. Designed to suit the beginner, you’ll learn how to form italic letters correctly, with consistency and flow. Ross is a Christchurch teacher, contemporary painter and heritage advocate.
To enrol in these courses or any others in the WEA programme, phone the WEA on 366 0285, go online to cwea.org.nz or pick up a copy of the WEA programme from a city library.
In this digital age, where taking a photo is as simple as point and shoot, everyone is a photographer right? Not the case according to the professionals!
A photographer is an artist who uses their talent to communicate through images. The Design and Arts College of New Zealand (D&A) Photography programme teaches students how to develop a strong, personal, and creative direction in their work.
D&A graduate Amanda Maxwell is a great example of this. She has found a way to combine her professional photography skills with her passion for helping others. This year she will get the opportunity to grow her ideas for a better world after being selected to participate in an intensive programme called “Live a Dream.”
Amanda has a passion for helping youth who have experienced bullying and she aims to combat this issue through art by creating a workshop that uses art therapy to address bullying. To fund this enterprise after “Live a Dream” Amanda plans on selling a photography book of her own work.
D&A are currently enrolling for the February intake of Foundation, Fine Arts, Graphic Design, Interior Design, Fashion Design, Makeup Design and Production, and Contemporary Photography.

Christchurch School of Music
2015 was a really busy year for the Christchurch School of Music with lots of exciting things happening.
In September the School celebrated its Diamond Jubilee – 60 years of providing excellent music tuition and ensemble opportunities to thousands
of Cantabrians.In December the School moved back
home onto the site of the old Music Centre. With the support of the Catholic Diocese, the school is renting four portable buildings on the site adjacent to Catholic Cathedral College where all the instrumental and voice teaching takes place on a Saturday morning and after school.
So along with its new branding, a new user-friendly website and a great new place to call home the CSM is in good heart and looking forward to a fantastic year of music making in 2016.
From pre-schoolers to septuagenarians, the CSM caters for a wide range of ages and musical styles offering opportunities
for group or individual tuition in all instruments and an ensemble to suit everyone. From orchestras, choirs, jazz and rock bands, world music ensembles, wind ensembles and
concert bands every taste is catered for. All ensembles take part in regular concerts including Saturday soirees and the popular annual Showcase Concert. Recitals where individuals can perform are also held regularly.
If you have always wanted to play an instrument but you’re not sure which one or you want to give your children a chance to have a go on all the instruments to help them decide, come along to our popular and free Try an Instrument Day on Saturday 30 January from 10am-12pm in the Hall at Catholic Cathedral College. You will get to hear the experts playing the instruments and then have a go yourself. Heaps of fun guaranteed and a great opportunity to find out what instrument really appeals. We look forward to seeing you soon.
Do your children lack self-confidence, or perhaps have so much energy that they need an outlet for it? Development
through drama is the ideal approach to teach confidence and channel youthful energy while building self-esteem.
The Helen O’Grady Drama Academy has been in New Zealand for 32 years. This highly regarded worldwide programme helps students aged 5 to 17 fulfil their potential by acting confidently and speaking clearly. This unique self-development programme helps achieve invaluable life skills. The confident, articulate child makes friends easily, accepts challenges and new directions. Confident children become well-rounded adults.
Our fully qualified teachers are trained in the Helen O’Grady Drama system. They ensure each child is encouraged
and valued in a warm, positive learning environment. Lessons stimulate and motivate students without the exam or peer group pressure. Weekly class activities include speech training, creative movement and improvisation. Our Youth Theatre programme encourages the development of leadership and organisational skills. Three terms of the year cover the self-development programme and in the fourth term, all students prepare a performance for parents and friends. We also offer Trinity College London examinations as an option for those who wish to pursue an international qualification.
Our safe, structured learning environment values student individuality and encourages team building. Most importantly, it’s great fun, too!

Campus principal Gary Taylor said, “Having operated out of an earthquake-damaged building in Manchester Street for some time
now, we are delighted to have found the perfect building and location.”
The new building, on the south side of Hagley Park, was recently vacated by Deloitte, and will be fully furnished and equipped by the time of the first courses starting on the second of February.
“Education is the key to getting a good job now,” says Taylor, “and we can boast outstanding outcomes from our programmes. By way of example, 88 per cent of our web development and software engineering graduates from our four
nationwide campuses get great jobs in their respective fields.”
Vision College is also well-known for its counselling degree, as well as the highly successful Early Childhood teaching programmes, among others.
Taylor says, “I know one of the key features that attracts students to us is the smaller class sizes and personal level of tuition. We are very much a tutor-lead provider with a lot of one-on-one tuition given. There are a lot of students that like that environment ahead of large lecture theatre style.”
A separately branded component of the operation is TrainMe, which will also relocate to the new building. TrainMe

Due to popularity, GBC in the Garden Hotel complex on Marshland Rd will be continuing into 2016 with a sparkling array of live music each Friday night.
Whether you're dining in the adjoining very popular Garden Buffet Restaurant, chosing a bite off the GBC a la carte menu, or just keen to find somewhere new and interesting to enjoy a cool drink, make yourself at home in GBC.
Open daily from 9am, the Garden Bar Cafe is a cafe by day serving great coffee and a cabinet selection of delicious gourmet food, and by night GBC is a bar with a great range of beverages and simple yet complete a la carte menu. Anytime, GBC is the perfect place to relax and catch up with family and friends.
For your listening pleasure, GBC has enlisted some of Christchurch's top acts to play from 6pm each Friday throughout February.
Hailing from Oregon, USA, Mandi has been based in Christchurch for the past 15 years. When not performing solo on keyboard, you can find this dazzling entertainer singing as part of the X-Files duo, or fronting the Retrosonic rock band. She is also a certified vocal instructor who teaches both privately and in schools.
Completing the lineup of great acts for February are the Easy Hearts duo on Friday 12th and the Rhonda Campbell duo on the 19th.
GBC in the Garden Hotel complex, 110 Marshland Rd, phone 385-8880.
Coming up on Friday 5th February & 26th February is songstress,
