Empower Yoga and Healing

My curious and inquisitive nature began from a very early age and was always captivated whilst watching my Mother doing her regular yoga practice. My unstable grounding led me to spend my life forever seeking and needing. Whenever there were challenges in coping with my everyday life (becoming a mother and a parent) the universe would present to me, time and time again - Yoga and Meditation. I thought I had to be a certain body type or person to practice yoga. I was so wrong! I realised Yoga is for Every “Body”. Practicing yoga became more clear when I met my Yoga Teacher Debbie Hay (FINI) over at Rottnest Island in May 2009 for a women’s retreat over the mother’s day weekend. I met other likeminded women from different walks of life, taking time out for themselves. I felt like I had come “HOME” to a place of self-love – not to a home that I had ever known before. I commenced a regular practice of Hatha Vinyasa Yoga classes in Roleystone with Shannon Beech (FINI). The more I practiced Yoga the deeper I delved and began to learn and be accepting of my true self. My journey of self-enquiry to my many facets that are “me” were being peeled back consciously, authentically and truthfully.
My belief in a holistic approach encouraged me to learn more of the physical, spiritual, emotional and mental aspects. It is through The Yoga Space that I completed The Hatha Vinyasa Yoga Teacher Training with Yoga teacher Ms Jean Byrne PhD, and graduated in June 2014. I am a Registered Level 1 Hatha Vinyasa Yoga Teacher with Yoga Australia.
Whilst undertaking my Yoga Teacher Training, I specialised in Prenatal, Postnatal Yoga and Active Birth, Yin/Yang Yoga and Children’s Yoga. I brings to all my classes the sharing of yoga in a safe and welcoming environment, a place to be mindful of staying in the present moment and self-nurturing. In June 2014 I started her own business called “Empower Yoga and Healing” and i have been teaching at various studios and until recently at the Conscious Conception and Birth Centre WA, Mt Nasura.
My professional background includes practising as a Registered Midwife and Nurse. Through the practice of yoga this has allowed me to just be with women on their journeys of self-discovery.
My perseverance and steadfastness encourages me to embrace knowledge every day. I myself a lifetime student in my own yoga practise at The Yoga Space with whom I am humbly grateful to all my Yoga teachers and their teachers before them for without them I would not have had the courage to believe “I Can”.
I completed my Infant Massage Instructor Training in 2007 whilst working as a Midwife. Such a lovely complement to Postnatal Yoga (mums and Bubs Yoga) where you experience that beautiful bond between Mother and baby. TOUCH is our first language to express care respect and love in the bonding process.
