Remember when yoga was everywhere? Studios on every corner. Classes booked out. Friends swapping mat recommendations. Yoga wasn’t just a workout — it was a way of life. I, for one, was completely seduced by it. I loved the athleticism, the mental clarity, the discipline. For a while, yoga was woven into the fabric of…
I sit here and my heart hurts. Every day, there’s another senseless death or violent act—both here in Australia and around the world. I’m not a political commentator. I usually steer clear of public commentary on these issues. But how long can we keep pretending this is normal? When will we agree that something needs…
Has anyone else noticed that Pilates has become a trend lately? That it’s now an aesthetic of pastel pants, matcha beverages and a full face of make up? It honestly feels like the whole principle of Pilates has become an exclusive club that requires a strict dress code and one’s ability to hand over half…

After a bit of a hiatus having kids and you know, being shut down for almost two years during “that time” not so long ago, I thought that teaching in studios again might be a nice way to get out of the house and make some extra cash. Hmm… not so much. I’m basically a…
It’s the biggest question I think we can attempt to answer, in all honesty. Out of habit, most of us reach for answers like our name, what we do for a living, maybe our star sign… But those are really just constructs that help to label us. They aren’t actually even close to explaining WHO…
The pregame show It’s a sunny afternoon and I am reclining outside on my deck chair over the Summer break and I see a Facebook post about tantric breathing. Of-course I have heard the word tantra thrown around, but I didn’t have a great understanding about what it was. Mostly, I just thought about naughty…
When something explodes in your heart center, the power of that feeling can bring you to your knees. It can’t be labeled good or bad, it just is this pure force running through you.
