Amy has 20 years’ experience as a teacher and has seen firsthand the amazing benefits of yoga and mindfulness practice. Having turned to yoga and meditation dealing personally with depression and anxiety and to deal with the pain of chronic migraines, she knows how valuable a tool it is.

The addition of yoga to Amy’s repertoire has special significance. After years in the fitness industry, it became evident to Amy that there was more to being “fit” than just the physical. "While strong physically, I was searching for something to develop my mental and emotional strength and then I discovered yoga.”

Looking back at her youth, without any formal instruction or knowledge of the practices, just a deep intuition, Amy used breathing, visualisation and meditation to cope with childhood migraines and depression. This trust led her to complete yoga teacher training in the magical Baja Peninsular in Mexico with Yandara Yoga Institute. The 200 hour intensive course blended Hatha, Vinyasa and Kundalini yoga, learning from ten different teachers from all over the world, with different backgrounds, styles and ages, including Reiki masters, astrologers and musicians. This course changed Amy’s life on so many different levels and she feels great joy sharing these learnings everyday.

Amy has run a yoga studio in Brisbane and taught retreats locally and around the world for almost 15 years and is founder and co-director of a yoga charity since 2020.

Involved in the fitness industry since 1998, Amy began her studies in Exercise andSports Science. She is a qualified group exercise instructor, Personal Trainer, Pilates and Yoga instructor, trained in aqua aerobic, pilates matwork and reformer, pre and post natal exercise, exercise for rehab, personal training, boxing, Zumba and TRX suspension.
