"I began practicing yoga at home several years ago, moving to group classes in 2018 and eventually getting my 200hr YTT in 2020. Since then I have completed a Warriors at Ease training geared towards working with Active Duty Military and Veterans, a Meditation Training and finished my 300hr YTT. My practice has had such a huge impact on my day-to-day life living with an auto-immune disorder and has been so beneficial that my goal is now to pass those benefits on to others, proving that yoga can be accessible to all. I love that yoga can bring you the whole spectrum of exercise from relaxation and stretching to a powerful core and strength workout depending on what you need for that day, it constantly surprises me and shows me what I'm capable of on a daily basis"
Ashley says that to her, yoga is about the balance of strength, flexibility, exertion and releasing tension. Her classes are high energy and combine both strength and mobility in a dynamic flow style. Expect to move, sweat and breathe :)
G'day! I'm Sam, I'm from Australia, but I've called Okinawa my home for 11 years. I was a huge yoga sceptic for years and would roll my eyes when people told me that it would help fix some of my problems. Then, I finally tried a class and learnt the errors of my stubbornness, as I found myself both less stiff and less stressed. I also credit yoga with helping me get closer to a more positive body image. However, my initial scepticism has helped me form my yoga teaching philosophy; For me, yoga should be accessible, fun and straightforward. I like to create fast strong dynamic flows, as these have always helped me get out of my head and focus my mind. When I'm not doing yoga, I like to run, SUP and read.
"3 years ago I got into yoga shortly after having my 3rd child. I was riddled with back pain, pain in my feet, hips, knees…you name it. I was in constant pain. After dealing with Lyme disease and the aches post child birth, I decided to give yoga a try. Within just a few shorts weeks of practicing yoga, I was feeling better. The better I felt, the more I wanted to do yoga. I fell in love with all of it, and decided to join a yoga teacher training program to deepen my practice. I am passionate about body positivity and showing people that you can be plus size and active too!"
Sabrina focuses intense flows centering around the breath guiding your movement to become meditative. Leave your flows sweating, energized, and mentally restored.
