Aspire
I am a Yoga Teacher and Massage Therapist with a small cosy yoga studio situated in the Wollongong CBD. I also operate out of the fabulous Astarte Mind Body Studio at Albion Park Rail. I believe that the capacity to attain better health, vitality and wellbeing lies within each of us and am passionate about helping others achieve greater wellbeing.
I offer small group or individual yoga classes perfect for beginners and experienced yogis alike. I love sharing these practices with my students and seeing them begin to flourish. I have taught students from 18-83 years of age and focus on making Yoga accessible, enjoyable and beneficial to each persons unique body, history and health conditions. I also offer Relaxation Massage, Remedial Massage, Dry Needling and Pre and Post Natal Massage.
I discovered Yoga at the age of 16 and instantly fell in love with it. I have continued to explore these practices over the years, and am constantly finding new depth, meaning and expression in my practice. I drifted away from Yoga in my 30’s as the demands of family life and work took over. Ultimately, this contributed to a collapse in my health and I realised that returning to my practice and deepening my commitment would indeed be my pathway to wellbeing.
As I regained my health, I undertook my Yoga teacher training at Dancing Warrior Yoga in Sydney, and from that starting point also explored Yin Yoga with Clare Lovelace and PreNatal Yoga with Kylie Hennessy. I also completed a Diploma of Remedial Massage, which helped me understand the physical structures and functions of the body in a much deeper way. Dry Needling has always been a passion of mine, and I was lucky enough to complete my post graduate training in Dry Needling with Gino Lo Piato in Sydney. I now combine my Yoga and Massage knowledge, as well as my personal experience of losing and regaining health and experiencing debilitating chronic pain and chronic fatigue in my work in helping others regain, restore, discover or enhance their own wellbeing.
