Meet our instructors

I started my yoga journey 30 + years ago and after many  years of travelling around the world I decided I was ready to commit to  becoming a yoga teacher.

‍

The draw card for me was/is more of the  spiritual aspect as I have always been curious about the bigger picture,  meditating and finding contentment. The physical side was an added  bonus.

‍

In  2000, I started my yoga teacher training apprenticeship at the Gold Coast Yoga Centre in Australia, which took 18mths, six days a week, 30 hours a week.

‍

I have owned a yoga studio on  the Gold Coast, taught in Korea, Taipei, Hong Kong, Shanghai, Mexico,  Sri Lanka, Thailand, Australia, Bali and of course New Zealand.

‍

I am blessed to have  trained with a lot of great inspirational teachers along this journey,  such as Erich Schiffman, Donna Farhi, Seane Corn, Shiva Rea, Rodney Yee,  Ana Forest, David and Sharon, the founders of Jivamukti, Andrey Lappa  from Universal Yoga, Nicky Knoff (Iyengar), John Friend (Anusara), David  Soul Ray, Lance Schuler, Clive Sheridan and of course my teachers (during my training): Kameron Story, Mark Togni and Suzanne Grey.

‍

The style of yoga I  predominantly teach is Vinyasa Flow, which leads you through a flowing  series of postures with an emphasis on the breath. Options are given and  the yoga class is structured so that each pose  prepares the student for the next. Everybody can do my yoga from a  beginner level, pre-natal, general through to advanced.  In the  beginner  and pre-natal yoga classes the emphasis is on  the foundations of yoga with the correct use of props ie; blankets,  blocks, straps and bolsters, to enable the student to practise safely and confidently.

‍

The  class environment is positive and fun, so you can feel at ease and comfortable to practice at your own level. After all it is ultimately about your own self exploration.

I teach weekly classes, workshops, 200/100hr yoga teacher trainings and International yoga retreats.
