Classes weave together elements of Hatha, slow Vinyasa (gentle flowing movement), pranayama (breath), and relaxation to cultivate inner peace and a deep sense of calm. Breath and yoga postures are linked together to create the experience of a moving meditation, transitioning into restorative poses that promote ease and relaxation. I will encourage you to find your own rhythm, move at your pace and rest whenever needed. I’m passionate about building community and strive to create an environment that is friendly, supportive, and welcoming to all.

My training
I am a registered yoga teacher with over 35 years of dedicated practice. My journey with yoga began in my teens. I fell in love with the movement but soon discovered that yoga also helped me to find a profound sense of inner peace and calm. Over the years, I’ve explored many different styles of yoga. I now enjoy blending traditional yoga with some contemporary somatic practices. This approach combines gentle, rhythmic movement with the breath to cultivate a sense of ease in both body and mind.
​
I completed my initial yoga teacher training with Vincent Bolletta (Hansa Yoga). I have continued to deepen my learning completing the Art of Teaching with Donna Farhi, Mental Health Aware Yoga with Dr Lauren Tober along with other workshops with YogaUOnline and Anahata Yoga Retreat. My teaching has also been deeply influenced by the invaluable experience of practicing with and learning from Dr Jane Hardcastle (Yoga Therapist - Yogatherapyworks). I have a Bachelor of Arts (Honours) in Human Services, a Certificate in Adult Teaching and a Certificate of Tertiary Teaching. I am member of Yoga New Zealand and the International Yoga Teachers Association (NZ)
