“A yoga practice is a unique journey for each of us. I am committed to creating a safe and inclusive environment for every body and every stage of life. Lycra is not a prerequisite!”

Welcome,
it's wonderful to meet you 😀

With more than 25 years of personal yoga practice and over 15 years of professional training and study, I offer yoga that is steady, accessible, and grounded in real life.

My yoga journey began at 18 when my father suggested I try a class. I had no idea then how quietly and completely it would shape my life.

Today, my work centres on breath, nervous system support, and simple, practical movement that helps us all feel more at ease in our bodies, on and off the mat.

As a certified C-IAYT Yoga Therapist based in Shelley, WA, I offer small, supportive community classes with a gentle therapeutic lens. My focus includes pelvic floor well-being, midlife support, and creating yoga spaces that feel welcoming, safe, and sustainable, especially for everyday people who don’t identify as “naturally flexible.”

Over the years, I’ve worked alongside healthcare professionals and researchers through organisations including Fiona Stanley Hospital, St John of God Murdoch, and The Kids Research Institute. These experiences continue to shape my teaching, grounding it in both evidence-informed practice and human connection.

What I love most is simple…Helping people realise yoga doesn’t need to look a certain way to be meaningful.

It might be a return to movement.
A pause in a busy day or phase of life.
A quiet space to breathe and reset.

My hope is that people feel supported exactly as they are.

At Simple As Pi Yoga Meditation, classes are gently paced, thoughtfully structured, and grounded in kindness rather than performance. You may even get to meet my Dad along the way, he loves coming to class!

When I’m not teaching, you’ll usually find me with a book and a cuppa, out with the chooks, or in nature, where I quietly reset and refuel amongst the busy-ness of raising two very active children🤣
