“Stef is a fun, kind, and compassionate human who brings her joie de vivre and lightness of being to her yoga”
Hi, I’m Stef.
I create nourishing experiences for you to explore yoga in all its richness. My practice is a synthesis of sacred ritual and embodied self-enquiry bolstered with hefty textbooks and a thirst for learning. My work brings together a love of movement, a fascination with philosophy and a deep calling for meditation. I honour Sivananda yoga, Ashtanga vinyasa and Patanjali’s Yoga Sutras as foundational threads in the rich tapestry of my practice.

-
No. I never planned to do a yoga teacher training myself but I wanted to learn from someone I could trust, and wasn’t trying to sell me their doctrine. I have designed this program for:
· Yoga Enthusiasts: Deepen your understanding of yoga theory, gain insights to enrich your practice.
· Future Teachers: Aspiring yoga instructors preparing for teacher certification.
· YTT Graduates: Individuals with yoga certification committed to refining their practice and expanding their teaching toolkit.
Come as you are and prepare to consolidate and enrich your yoga practice to a place of deep understanding and embodiment.

For most of us, the study of yoga theory only begins after our first teacher training. This course is the perfect place to integrate theory, practice designing and teaching classes, finding your voice and building community.

As much as I love the practice of yoga, even MORE I love the way it has shaped my life and the community that we have built around the practice of yoga. Being in the company of people who are willing to take action to improving the quality of their lives, willing to hold the truth lightly as a delicate unfolding flower. I am willing to be wrong if it will take me closer to the truth. Are you willing to reconsider what you know about yoga?
“You realise the road is the goal and that you are always on the road,”
Sri Nisargadatta Maharaj
Twenty plus years of yoga practice, ten years of yoga teaching and several YTTs in, I am excited to keep learning and I hope a droplet of my enthusiasm will reignite your practice.
