The Journey
of Becoming
For millennia, yogis have practised in caves, forests, on mountain paths and the busy streets of India—places full of dust, noise, weather, grief and life. Practice was never dependent on expensive props or lululemon tights, but on breath, attention and a willingness to meet what is real. Being Love Yoga honours those ancient roots: and offers a wild, imperfect, deeply human space where each body, as it is, is enough.
Our calling is to hold space for your own unearthing. Whether through the flow of movement, the fire of breathwork, or the waves of self-reflection, we ground ourselves in the natural world. This is a sanctuary for those who seek depth over surface, for the souls who crave the messy truth of embodied unfolding, and the open sky of an aligned existence.
I hold an MA Arts in Art Therapy, a 500-hour yoga teaching qualification, a Bachelor of Circus Arts and Physical Theatre, a certificate of Disability and Aged Care, as well as Therapeutic Massage, and a small forest of other certifications. But the learning which has really shaped me has been the wisdom of the Earth and her kin: the trees and oceans, crows and street dogs, winds and mountains, and the stillness of Being itself. Because of this, my work does not live only in the narrow lanes of ‘service’ and ‘exchange’, but as a living conversation with the more-than-human world—a shared ritual of listening, honouring and upholding.

The Diverse Mandala of Being
Being Love Yoga is rooted in a clear set of values. We honour the body as sacred, welcome the whole self as it is, and seek justice for people and planet. We choose accessibility, social and ecological equity, and the slow depth of presence over speed or turnover. The values below name the principles that guide every class, touch, and conversation in this space.
-
Honouring the body as sacred, never a project
-
Making the path accessible, so no one has to earn their right to rest
-
Rooting in social and ecological equity, knowing liberation is always shared
-
Welcoming the whole self — messy, tender, radiant — exactly as it arrives
-
Choosing spaciousness over speed, so transformation can unfold in its own time
-
Trusting presence more than performance, allowing organic change
Untamed Healing
At Being Love Yoga, our values of equity and accessibility live vibrantly in the way we share this work. Our offerings include waged, unwaged, restorative-justice and access-supporter options. Additionally workshops offer scholarship options, so that cost is a threshold, not a wall. In this way, those with more can help tend the circle, and those in leaner seasons can still rest, move and be held within a community that understands healing as a shared, living commons.
