Qualifications

I am a Senior level teacher and yoga therapist.  I have been practicing yoga for 30 years.  I have 2 Yoga Teacher Diplomas, Hatha yoga and Satyananda yoga (which is a traditional, therapeutic and meditative style) plus a diploma in Yoga Therapy.  My training journey began in 2003 when I moved to Australia, pregnant with my first child.  It was an intensive course rich with residentials and if done back to back 3 years.  It took me 10 years to complete due to the residentials as I had 2 more children.  In the meantime, I completed a 1 year Teaching Diploma with my prenatal teacher in Hatha yoga (Aranya order) 2008-2010.  I began teaching in 2010 teaching from my home studio, a hall and on retreats as well as helping with teacher training.  I mostly teach private and group classes from home at the moment. I also enjoy visiting businesses and homes to teach.

Mostly, my classes are small and taught in a private studio.  I have fully, up-to-date insurance, first aid/CPR, Yoga Australia membership and SYTA membership.  I am a qualified Yoga Therapist (recognised by AAYT & a member of AAYT).  I attend regular professional development courses, workshops, conferences to update and develop my skills.

This Government accredited Satyananda Teaching qualification is a Nationally recognised course.  I am affiliated with SYTA and Yoga Australia (SYTA3813).   Due to the high number of training hours (1440) it is recognised by Yoga Australia as being a course over 500hrs.  Rebates with Medicare are currently no longer available for yoga if you are on a healthcare plan but we are hoping this will change soon particularly for therapeutic yoga.
