She found yoga when she was told she needed knee replacements and hasn’t looked back… for her it is the perfect combination of movement and breath-work with an energetic and spiritual essence. Her classes highlight awareness of breath whilst maintaining both strength and ease. She incorporates attention to the internal self, the mind-body experience, the signals from your body and also loves to bring in some philosophy/TCM to tie it all together into a truly holistic practise.

“Yoga has been transformational in my life and my aim is to empower my students to understand that it is a practice for every body and can meet each person exactly where they are on any particular day.”

Born in the Netherlands, Susan qualified and worked as a Postural Exercise Therapist before moving to Australia in the mid 1990s. Once here, Susan not only became a mum to three boys, but also enhanced her skills by completing post graduate course work and started working as part of an Allied Health Team for an organisation that supports people with a disability. A holistic approach to therapy is an effective treatment in Disability and Susan enjoyed working in a team approach. Susan’s eldest son was born with a neuromuscular impairment and this propelled her career and interest into neuromuscular and developmentally focused physical therapy. Susan then took up Pilates and really enjoys teaching the principles of centering, movement control and postural focus that the exercises bring. She believes that having an effective clinical assessment and a focused Pilates programme can help resolve acute and chronic conditions within a daily living environment. Susan’s areas of speciality are Neuromuscular impairments (muscle tone issues), postural analysis, ergonomic training, fitness and massage.

Susan started practicing yoga as a child in Scotland with her Dad who was an avid Hatha yogi. She returned to her practice over 15 years ago in Melbourne as an antidote to her stressful career. She very quickly fell in love with the practice, it felt like she was coming home, becoming comfortable in her own skin, building strength and softness at the same time. Susan’s love of yoga continues to grow as she continues to learn. She teaches yoga to share her love of the practice, the transformation which occurs not just within the body but within the mind and our very being – true medicine for the body and the soul. Her aim is for her classes to be welcoming to all, moving with curiosity, moving mindfully with the breath, building strength and flexibility whilst finding your inner calm. “The body benefits from movement, the mind benefits from stillness” -Sakyong Mipham

Originally from South Australia, Sara was lucky enough to grow up on her family’s 1700 acre mixed farm, a 2 hour drive north of Adelaide. Sport was the main social event growing up in her rural community. In winter Sara played netball, and tennis in summer. These sports took a toll on Sara’s joints, leading her to take up yoga in her early twenties to manage the pain. Sara quickly came to love the practice, and yoga is now her main form of movement. It has also become a lovely a way for Sara to connect with herself and become more mindful. Outside of yoga, Sara works full time in HR, helping organisations become more diverse and inclusive for employees.
