About me/us/yoga
Yoga offers a lot of gifts - flexibility, strength, self-awareness, an overall sense of well-being…but the gift of feeling at @home in my body, my breath, my heart, is the greatest gift of all. Because there is no better journey, than the journey HOME.
Yoga Tree Stanthorpe has been cultivating an inclusive kula (community) since it’s opening in October 2014 at 11 Victoria St, Stanthorpe. Over the years the studio has been a welcoming and safe space for the Granite Belt community and her visitors to explore movement, breath, meditation, relaxation and philosophy. In addition, Pilates, iRest Yoga Nidra, MBSR courses, and workshops are offered regularly.
I have been practicing yoga and meditation for over 30 years and teaching on the Granite Belt since 2007. I picked up a 1950’s yoga text in a Broome market in the ‘80s , which piqued my interest, and since then I have studied and practiced yoga in basements in Ashgrove and Kathmandu, Iyengar yoga schools in Cornwall and 17 Miles Plains; I have practiced under the tutelage of Sri Yogis in Ashrams in Rishikesh, in airplane hangars in New Farm, and furniture stores in New York; bars in Nusa Lembogan, temples in Nozawa Onsen; tea gardens in Kyoto and a lot of places in between……
My favourite place to practice is on my deck, at HOME, with my dog beside me.
I strive to provide our community with yoga and well-being modalities that are accessible to EVERY body, irrespective of age, mobility, gender or flexibility. My philosophy is : If you aren’t in your body - where are you? I am so impressed with the level of expertise and the humanity and innate compassion the teachers at Yoga Tree express.
We are little studio ¬ with a big open heart.
Classes at Yoga Tree are infused with love, laughter, wisdom and joyful presence. Our mission statement is:
~ Keep peace in the mind, strength in the body and love in the heart ~
Our team of teachers look forward to welcoming you to a class soon.
