Maree has been practicing yoga for more than 20 years and teaching for ten of these.  As yoga has had a life changing and therapeutic effect for her in both mind and body, this has led her in teaching others and her practice as a Yoga Therapist.  

In addition to Yoga Therapy, Maree has specialized in teaching Pregnancy Yoga for a number of years now, is also a trained EmbodyBirth™ (Holistic birth preparation) teacher and is passionate about helping women to have conscious and empowered birth experiences.   She offers these services both in classes and in personal sessions.  She also provides therapeutic support following birth, particularly where women have suffered birth trauma.

Maree has a focus on practices that gently strengthen, incorporating mindfulness and one’s own intuition into the healing process.  She says she “believes that each of us has the power to facilitate our own healing, given the right tools and space.  Yoga therapy and developing a personal wellness practice is such a profound and self-empowering aid to this.”

In a session with Maree you can expect to feel heard and for her to draw from her different levels of experience to find holistic practices that heal, empower and support you as you reintegrate to a place of personal health and wellbeing.
