Your Host
Hi, I am Michelle and I am passionate about create spaces for aspiring women leaders to explore how they want to lead sustainable change from the inside out. Yoga offers many tools and insights that support this work both on and off the mat. I have experienced first-hand how yoga can support us to create the mental, physical and emotional space to get perspective on life, live and work in line with our values and find inner strength and contentment. I discovered yoga 20 years ago while studying at university and since then it has been a constant support during my professional life. I did my first teacher training (200hr) in Bali in 2011 with the intention of deepening my own practice and in the process discovered a love for teaching, which I have been doing ever since. In 2017 I completed my advanced teacher training (500hr) in India with my teacher Vidya Heisel from Frog Lotus Yoga and feel honored to be able to share this knowledge. I have also completed my ACC and PCC training as a certified Integral Coach and weave coaching practices into the retreat experience to support your personal, professional and leadership development.
