Tina is a yoga practitioner and qualified Ashtanga yoga teacher, authorised by www.sharathyogacentre.com in Mysore, India. She has be practicing ashtanga yoga for more than 14 years and teaching since 2007.
In 2004 while balancing a few different careers to maintain her visual arts practice, she began exploring yoga to help create some equanimity in her busy lifestyle. Through practicing yoga she discovered that she could ‘be busy without being stressed’, one of many valuable insights learned by practicing yoga.
After many years of being a dedicated student, developing a disciplined and daily practice, Tina began assisting Karyn Grenfell (founder of Ashtanga Yoga Melbourne, and a KPJAYI, Certified teacher) in a mentorship program.
Becoming a teacher evolved through following the path of parampara, where the traditional teachings of yoga are passed down through a lineage of masters from India, tracing back to the original source in ancient times. This has included making regular pilgrimages to KPJAYI, the home of Ashtanga yoga in Mysore, India to study with Guru Sharath Jois. While she was there in December 2016, she received the authorisation to teach from Paramaguru Sharath Jois.
Tina is highly experienced in teaching students of all levels, in Mysore style programs and led classes.
Private yoga sessions for individuals or small groups are available at your chosen location.
She also teaches health and wellbeing programs, including yoga and mindfulness training. This is available to individuals and groups in schools and other workplaces. For bookings or enquiries please email or call on 0419573485
Tina holds regular retreats throughout the year, in beautiful locations around Australia and overseas. All are welcome, including students who are new to yoga.

Ashtanga Yoga Weekend in Darwin, NT, Australia.
This three day workshop is suitable for complete beginners and also for more
experienced yoga students. Students can learn and experience the Ashtanga yoga method taught in the traditional Mysore-style.
Beginners will be introduced to the ‘free-breathing’ technique specific to
the Ashtanga yoga method and also learn to memorise a sequence of postures from the yoga chikitsa (Primary) series, to establish a daily self-practice.
Students who already have an established Mysore-style practice will be able to practice at their own level, under the guidance of a highly experienced teacher (authorised by Paramaguru Sharath Jois at KPJAYI, Mysuru, India).
Also, there will be a Q + A session for all students on Sunday morning after class.
