I’m not the average yoga teacher

I combine elements of Hatha Yoga (the yoga of “force” or “movement”) with modern somatic and mental health therapies, modalities, and language relevant to our Australian culture. My secular approach to teaching allows students to explore, experience, and express in ways that feel the most safe and appropriate for them.

INTEGRITY - It is very important to me that I teach within my scope of practice and from honest and humble intentions. I do not claim to be a yogic purist.

INCLUSION - I will tailor practices and poses as best I can to meet your abilities and needs so that you breathe • move • soothe with confidence.

INQUIRY - Thought-provoking prompts are offered throughout the class to invite curiosity and awareness. Gain greater knowledge of your true self.

What does that mean?

WHAT YOU CAN EXPECT FROM ME…

Small classes to facilitate connection and individualised attention.

Asana (poses) that are taught with both demonstration and verbal cues.

Your agency fully respected:
I will not physically adjust you.

Prop use that is suggested to
assist you in attaining correct form.

Connection, care, compassion,
and humble humanity :D

Want to know more?

I’m a mumma. It’s such a precious gift.


I’m a woman gracefully accepting
her years in her forties. Quick to smile and laugh, I’m passionate, goofy, nerdy, and a little bit plump.


I play the piano,
lose myself in fantasy novels,
love a well-spiced dirty chai latte,
and scream wild support when
my beloved Tigers are on the footy field.


I’m a second generation Aussie
from European stock
and sometimes, at random,
a “bit of bogan” bursts out.


I have a tattoo on my leg
with my children’s names
sprouting in order of their
glorious entrances into this world.


I crave connection with
the ocean and the bush,
and immerse myself often in nature.


I’m highly amused by the antics of cats,
especially those of my own two kitties.


And if you hadn’t already guessed,
butterflies are my “spirit animal”.
