It really goes without saying how excited I am to be returning to Thailand 🥰.
It's been too long, and over the past couple of years, I have had a calling to go back...so, we're going!
The retreat I have lined up is on Koh Samui, a short flight from Bangkok.
It is a well-known yoga retreat resort, so everything is ready and waiting 🤗.
The finer details will be put on my website over the next couple of days.
I have to be honest, I'm not one for waiting, so thought I would share my excitement NOW and deal with the website later 😬.
Happy Friday 🥰

My Story

Offering 200-hour RYT certified Yoga Teacher Training

I started my yoga journey approximately 30 years ago and after many years of travelling around the world I decided I was ready to commit myself to becoming a yoga teacher.

The draw card for me was/is more of the spiritual aspect as I have always been curious about the bigger picture, meditating and finding contentment. The physical side was an added bonus.

In the late 90s, I was living on the Gold Coast in Australia and practising regularly at the Gold Coast Yoga Centre. In 2000, I started my yoga teacher training apprenticeship – at that time it didn’t have an end to it. I was basically told that I would be finished my training when they saw that I was ready. This took 18 months of practising six days a week, 30 hours a week. There were no excuses for missing the training and if I didn’t turn up, I would have been expelled from the program. With hindsight, this was one of the most important lessons I learnt, as it gave me the dedication to continue my six-day-a-week practice no matter what the circumstances were. I had to maintain this combination of devotional practice and study which allowed me to gain a much deeper knowledge and understanding of the amazing art and science of yoga.
