My yoga journey began as a young teenager when I attended Hatha yoga classes with my mum in New Zealand. Perhaps that is when the seed was planted.
When my marriage ended, I decided to escape to India and rediscover myself.
I soon found myself in an ashram learning the Art of meditation and went on to practice many forms of meditation and karma yoga.
I visited India frequently over the next four years, discovering more of myself and the wonder of life.
On returning to NZ I was lucky enough to find true love and have 2 lovely children with my now husband John.
In 1996 we moved to the Gold Coast and focused on raising our girls and building our fabric art business.
Once the children were adults my passion for Yoga returned and I began attending regular Hatha Yoga classes on the Coast.
In 2015 I discovered Yoga with Heart yoga classes and an opportunity arose for me to begin a 2 year cadetship in Yoga Teacher Training with Yoga with Heart. I was drawn to this wonderful opportunity and went on to complete my 350 hr Raja Teacher Training in 2019.
I really enjoy growing and learning day after day, and when teaching I delight in the opportunity to nurture and empower participants and help them connect and honor their body and spirit through Yoga. Om Shanti

Yoga and Meditation came to my life as a Gift back in 2008 from a dear friend who thought that it would help me manage the stress my professional life was bringing me… She was right! However she would have never imagined back then that Yoga would change my life. After a couple of years practising Yoga asana, I decided in 2011 to study and complete a Level 1 Hatha Yoga Teaching Training Program, which then definitely was the catalyst for many changes in my life… Soon after completing this Training I decided to pause my highly demanding 10 year career and go travelling as a tool of self-discovery and as a way of living in a more conscious and giving way.
Since then, Yoga philosophy guides my way and I constantly aim to keep on learning and evolving with it. I am forever grateful for the Gift of Yoga and it is an honor and a privilege to be teaching with "Yoga with Heart" and a blessing to be able to share the gift of yoga with others. Namaste,

Hi, my name is Lisa, born in Las Vegas, but moved to the Gold Coast at age 13.
After my high school years I studied Psychology for a short time, as well as Tai Chi and Meditation in my 20’s. I am currently a proud wife and mother of 2 beautiful Teenagers which keeps me somewhat busy.
After practicing yoga with Maryke for many years years, she one day asked if I was interested in doing teacher training with her and implied I would make a wonderful teacher. I was honored to be chosen after which followed a 2 year cadetship and have now completed a 350hr Teacher Training with Yoga with heart. My passion it to continue to learn from the teachings handed down through the ages.
I know that yoga is a very important tool especially since disconnection and stress which has increased during the pandemic. Keeping our minds and bodies connected and flowing healthily under our conscious control is vital.
I am a well-rounded yoga teacher covering Yin for relaxation and restoration, as well as being able to deliver a stronger Vinyasa flow/sun salutation if required. I consider myself to be Kind and gentle, catering to all levels where possible. 😊
My intention as a teacher is to continue the traditional Raja Yoga Teachings which include not only the postures/asana’s but also some of the ancient wisdom that has been passed down from guru to chela (teacher to disciple one on one).

Hi my name is Janette. After experiencing my first yoga
class in my late teens, I knew yoga was for me. Yoga centred and calmed my thoughts, released tension in my physical body and cleared held-in emotions which left me feeling refreshed and whole at the end of the class.
I continued attending yoga classes over many years which led me to a desire to pursue teaching some 19 years ago. My teacher training was with Swami Sarasvati Yoga Society and I like to continue learning by participating in yoga workshops and retreats. Since completing my Teacher Trainning I have taught private classes, at government educational institutions, Fernwood gym, healing and wellness centre, as well as facilitating some day workshops.
I am a registered level 2 yoga instructor with Yoga Australia. I also instruct Qi Gong and have been initiated as a Reiki Master. It is a great pleasure to be part of the back up team at "Yoga with Heart" of sincere, compassionate yoga instructors. Om Shanti,
