Sue Griffiths
Introductory Level 2
I started practising yoga to help with menopause symptoms, especially mood swings. I found an add in the Leader for a yoga class with Jan Smith. The best yoga teacher I had ever had. I started going to class once a week and the benefits were positive. My husband said keep doing the yoga. I was going 3 times a week and any workshop that was on in Sydney.
Jan suggested I do teacher training with Bertha Shakinovsky, which I did. In October 2010 i qualified as a Level 2 teacher, all in the space of 7 years.
Sue continues her teacher training with Bertha and regularly attends classes & workshops with Pixie Lillas .
Leanne Donovan
Introductory Level 1
I came to yoga about 6 years ago. I was a runner, snow skier, and netball player, but as I aged I found the injuries mounting with back and knee problems. When the last of my children went to school I decided to give yoga a try. I tried different styles, but when it came to Iyengar yoga I was immediately hooked. It was a strong yoga with focus on alignment, great for rehabilitation of injuries. I realised that with yoga alone I could keep my fitness and tone. This of course was a common Western aim. The more I got into it though the more I was amazed at not just the physical, but the mental changes it made in me It cured my digestive problems, depression, insomnia and overall anxiety, but most importantly it helped me feel at peace with myself. I decided quite early on to become a teacher, and I'm looking forward to growing in practise and passing on the benefits yoga can bring to everyone.
Leanne continues her teacher training with Pixie Lillas.
