Hi, I’m Nardine I teach at the YUJ Studio in Bendigo, mindfulness, meditation and yoga facilitator with Bendigo Healths Cancer Wellness Program at the Gobbe Wellness Centre.  I also teach yoga to refugees with Bendigo Community Health, host annual bespoke tours to India and the International Yoga Festival in Rishikesh and run my own small yoga studio in Strathfieldsaye.

I have drawn on and taught these ancient practises for almost two decades but first discovered yoga as a 19 year old, in which I learned pretty quickly how I could use kriya (a specific sequence of postures, breath, mantra, mudras, meditation and relaxation)  movement and breath to calm my mind, feel energised, balanced and connected the more I practised.  It was more like a “work in” that a “work out” to me and something I started to crave and still do.

There is a great privilege and  joy in sharing these practices.  Because they have positively transformed me on every level, my hope is that echos out and touches every one of my students.  My aim is for everyone to have a felt experience from a practical and achievable place where they too can feel steady, aligned and a sense of harmony not only with themselves but with others to navigate this sometimes bumpy road we know as life.
