about simone

Melbourne based Yoga & Qigong teacher, Medical researcher and Shiatsu lover

With training in Yoga and Qigong, I am sharing these healing modalities to help you release stress and tension from body and mind so you can deepen your connection with yourself and find ease within.

Years back, I lived most of my life in a career driven headspace, rushing and racing, quickly angry and overwhelmed- until my friend took me to a Yoga class. I felt myself slowing down and the ease in body and mind felt so good - it gave me a taste of that peaceful place within, beneath all that stress and mental overwhelm.

Hooked by this easeful feeling, I continued my Yoga journey, it is my anchor to the ‘here and now’. Today, I am still career driven (working in medical research), but my habits and lifestyle are more in alignment. Through a regular Yoga and Qigong practice, I feel much more balanced and in touch with my own rhythm, allowing me to be an emotional regulated person again.

I am trained in Yoga, Yoga Nidra meditation and female health as well as Zen Shiatsu and Qigong:

Soma-Chi Vinyasa Yoga (200hours) | Yin Yoga (50hours) | Yoga Nidra meditation, Amrit lineage (100hours) | Prenatal Yoga (25hours) | Female Health for Yoga (25hours) | Myofascial Release (55hours) | Zen-Shiatsu (100hours) | Qigong (60hours)
