My personal practice and offerings combine the traditional teachings of Hatha yoga and practices of Asana (for the physical body), Pranayama (for the breath) and Meditation (for the mind) as tools to promote increased enquiry, awareness, vitality, spaciousness and joy for the practitioner.

Everyone’s reasons for stepping onto the yoga mat are many and varied however for whatever reason you arrive, I encourage students to look at yoga as a holistic tool for personal transformation, growth and self enquiry, not just in the physical body, rather working to bring spaciousness, connection, and nervous system regulation to the mind-body.

I’m currently based in Byron Bay, NSW and have a number of offerings available for you to join.

 
 
 

Retreats

My first journey to Sri Narayani Peedam was in 2015, on retreat with Edo & Jo. It remains one of those experiences I still find difficult to find the words for. The rhythm of the Peedam, mantra, prayer, ritual, service and the presence of Sri Sakthi Amma, opened something in my heart that has continued to quietly shape my practice ever since.

Having returned three times since that first retreat, this September I feel deeply honoured to return again, this time to support Edo on his retreat, sharing some yoga throughout our time together. Across the eight days on retreat, we will enter the living rhythm of the Peedam and ashram life through yoga, mantra, meditation, kirtan, puja, seva and Ayurveda. At its heart is the rare blessing of time in the presence of Sri Sakthi Amma, attending Amma’s daily puja, receiving darshan, teachings and blessings, and experiencing a place where devotion is woven into every part of the day.

The journey also includes visits to the temples of Sripuram, ancient Vedic rituals and a Full Moon Fire Puja, alongside personalised Ayurvedic care and opportunities to take part in Amma’s community and humanitarian work. It is an intimate pilgrimage into the living traditions of Bhakti, held within a place devoted to spiritual practice, healing and service.

A small number of places remain!!

SEPT 25 - OCT 3 2026
