Director/Principal Teacher – Body Yoga

Body Yoga was the first purpose-built yoga studio to be established in Berwick in 1996.  In January 2009, my dream of owning my own yoga school transformed into a  reality when I purchased the school from my teacher. Having being a student of the school as well as doing my Teacher Training through Body Yoga, I am honoured to have been chosen to offer my expression of Body Yoga to all who are ready to embark on the journey. For me, yoga has been life changing.  Having worked in a high pressure, corporate role all my working life whilst juggling many different roles; mum to my two beautiful children, wife to my husband of too many years to mention!, daughter, sister, friend, supporter, fixer(you name it I was it!), I know what it is to live a busy, stressful life. I also know what it is to be in constant pain. I endured many years of serious back pain, at times being unable to function while I lay flat on my stomach waiting for the pain to diminish so I could join the world again. Yoga was a welcome friend.  It taught me that I had the power to change my pain and take back control of my chaotic life.  Yoga fed me the way nothing else ever had.  It taught me to feel, to “understand” and to support myself in a loving, nurturing way that I had never experienced before. Yoga made me a much better person bringing calm and peace to my inner world so that I could share that with my family and friends and now with you. It is my intention to share my experience of life and yoga with anyone ready to bring that same sense of peace and healing into their lives. My vision for Body Yoga, is to offer yoga classes to everyone and every “body” regardless of age, state of health or level of experience.  Body Yoga is YOUR yoga – for your unique body and circumstances.  Classes are fun and taught in a manner which is appropriate to each student’s stage of life and level of experience.  You will feel the body stretch and strengthen and feel yourself relax and unwind.  Every class is different and includes meditation and relaxation, teaching you to be calm and peaceful.  With a dedicated team of experienced teachers, Body Yoga offers you plenty of variety in teaching styles across the many class times and class types on offer.  Body Yoga really does have something for EVERY BODY! The Body Yoga Studio is a sacred space for every BODY to enjoy. A place to enter where you will feel a calm, peaceful energy and sense of community that Body Yoga has earned a great reputation for. Centrally located in Blackburne Square, Berwick, the Body Yoga studio is close to all surrounding south east suburbs: Narre Warren, Beaconsfield, Upper Beaconsfield, Cranbourne, Officer, Pakenham, Hallam, Dandenong, Pearcedale, Harkaway, Monbulk, Cockatoo and Gembrook.
