Yoga Barn- the essence of yoga
About
We are all unique and complex, it's natural that a yoga session should be as well. The sessions and classes are holistic and reflect the individual needs of the students. We have the ability to be our own best teacher, we simply need the right experience to connect us with that ability and create an optimal state of personal health and well being.
I have been fortunate enough to experience a range of teachers and teaching styles in my yoga journey. From extensive personal experience, I teach a range of principles and practices that people can use. Creating a place that offers the student a range of tools suited to them, rather than a fixed set of generic rules.

Private Sessions
Therapeutic yoga and private classes available from the Yoga Barn or your venue. New option to book into a private session via Zoom.
Private class: There are many advantages to having a private class. You may be looking for instructions specific to your current situation; may not able to make regularly scheduled classes; wish to create a class for a family or social group or simply set some time aside that is just for you. A private class is specific, the practices are tailored to suit your needs and presented in a format that is relevant to your goals and your experience of yoga.
Pricing: Private classes in studio $70 per hour, 4 class pack $240.
Therapeutic Sessions: Yoga for direct management of health conditions. In a therapeutic session, we discuss your personal health needs, develop a yoga plan and practise. For clients that have specific conditions including anxiety, depression, chronic conditions and injury, this approach is highly effective in creating solutions and healing.
I do recommend a 4 session minimum for yoga therapeutics to get the best results.
LIfestyle Sessions: Similar to a therapeutic session, we use Ayurveda and lifestyle management to help achieve life change and goals. This is great for managing change, weight loss, creating new habits.
Pricing: 4 session package with home practice, resources and mentoring $360.00.
