About Anna
Anna was introduced to Yoga from a young age by her mother, an Iyengar teacher. During her travels in 2016, she started to connect more deeply with the practice & decided to further her knowledge through her first teacher training in India.
Although since trained in & influenced by many Yoga styles, Jivamukti Yoga, a Hatha Vinyasa inspired practice, based on a path to enlightenment through compassion for all beings - is where Anna has found perspective, passion & purpose.
Yoga has helped Anna overcome many personal challenges and has allowed her deep self-exploration, which has changed the way she perceives & moves through life. On the mat is where she feels like the best version of herself, and she aims to serve others in this way - creating a safe but dynamic practice that enables others to strengthen their understanding of & relationship with themselves.
Anna’s classes have a slower pace & have a strong focus on the breath and alignment, shining awareness on & honouring the body's physical capabilities & needs.
Her objective is for the class to leave one feeling balanced, grounded, connected & present.
