“Yoga enhances my life. I’d love to show you how it could do the same thing for you.”

 

HI, I’m Vanessa. I'm a Mum of two girls and a yoga teacher. I live in Perth, Western Australia and love doing yoga, and spending time in nature with my family. I'm passionate about helping children and parents build a toolkit for navigating the stress and pressure of our modern world.

I have designed and created the Cup Filling Journal and Affirmation Cards to help children remember they are always worthy of being treated with love and respect and to help them believe in themselves so they con deal with all of life’s tricky situations. Along with the cup filling products, I offer a range of online and in-person yoga for kids, parents and families to help you move better, feel more connected and live life with ease and joy.

My own yoga journey began as a way to manage pain, but when it began benefiting my anxiety, stress and insomnia, I was hooked. I studied more than 500hrs and honed my craft in some of the most respected studios in Melbourne & Perth, and started teaching a variety of classes to all ages.

I began to realise that the path of yoga was about so much more than the physical, and it is really about how we live, view, and approach the world. And I started to feel so much more joy, contentment, and meaning in my life - especially when it came to all the precious moments with my family. And this is what I want for you.

So I share the lessons from my journey with kids, parents, and families who want build a healthy body, mind, and life. My classes are thoughtfully designed to support all types of bodies and levels of practice, intentionally build strength alongside flexibility and fluidity, and provide the space for rest and contemplation. I am passionate about delivering a style of yoga that balances both effort and ease, and of course, fun for all ages.

I am committed to deepening my own practice and understanding, so that you can grow alongside me. I am currently exploring how the teachings of yoga can help us and our children to navigate our emotional landscape, and to develop the self-love, kindness, resilience, and mindset needed to thrive in today’s world.
