WHERE IT ALL STARTED
With my mum…
Yes, this gorgeous lady got me into Yoga when I was about 12 years old. She took me with her to do Yoga with her teacher Swami Sarasvati. Swami was quite a celebrity as she hit the TV screens in Australia in the late 1960’s and she had the audience, including my mum intrigued by Yoga. So up the stairs I walked, to the smell of incense burning, and there she was with her long black hair and kind smile, inviting me into the room to practice with all the adults. And so began my love of Yoga…and all things that inspired that same beautiful and radiant connection I felt to my Self that I experienced when I attended Yoga with my mum.
Thanks Mum

ABOUT YOGIREB
That class was one of the things that sparked an interested in body-mind-soul studies and since then I have been a keen student of all things natural and spiritual.
I was a fitness leader in Sydney for over a decade and taught in the top gyms. I studied and qualified in Naturopathy, Homeopathy, Shiatsu, Reflexology, Remedial Therapies, Aromatherapy, Counselling and NLP. I had successful practices in both Sydney and then Melbourne.
Along the way I have practiced different styles of Yoga, Ashtanga, Iyengar, Hatha and 2 years of Bikram, before moving to the Northern Territory in 2012 for two and a half years. It was whilst living in Darwin that I undertook my formal training in Yoga with Byron Yoga, in Byron Bay and Bali.
I am married and am a mum to 3 kids and step-mum to two more, and a Nanna to four little ones. I now live in the beautiful Port Macquarie Hastings Area and am bringing all my skills in NATUROPATHY and YOGA from the past 30 years of professional study and practice to the local area.
Yoga embodies everything I live by in life and includes the naturopathic and NATURAL WELLNESS APPROACH to life that I have endeavored to live and practice. In particular, I love the philosophy of Yoga and the principles for living better. I have found that living a Yogic life allows me to find contentment – Santosha. I love practicing and teaching an authentic Hatha Yoga. Every time I step on to my mat, I bring a new me and I feel my way through the Asanas (postures). My body, mind and soul love it.
I teach classes and offer one-on-one Yoga Therapy. I am available for naturopathic consults that include a Yogic approach to well-being via Zoom, phone, and in person.
WORDS FROM REBEL
I am continually moved by what people discover through regular Yoga practice and a commitment to natural, wholistic living. Over time, many individuals describe feeling more connected, more centred, and more capable of meeting life with steadiness and clarity.
Yoga offers a space to explore movement, breath, focus, and presence. These practices can support people to cultivate awareness, build inner resources, and reconnect with their own sense of agency and wellbeing. In my naturopathic and yogic work, I share principles that people can integrate into daily life in ways that feel meaningful and supportive for them.
It is deeply rewarding to witness individuals re?engage with activities or ways of living that matter to them. People often share reflections such as “I feel more grounded,” “I see things differently now,” or “This practice helps me feel more like myself.” I hold these expressions with gratitude, knowing that each person’s experience is unique and shaped by their own commitment to practice.
I cannot know how my life would have unfolded without Yoga and natural health, but I can say that these practices have shaped who I am and how I meet the world. They continue to offer me a framework for self?inquiry, steadiness, and growth.
Not everyone is drawn to looking within or taking an active role in their wellbeing. Each person walks their own path. What matters is that you honour what supports you, what steadies you, and what helps you navigate life with clarity and integrity.
I look forward to sharing what I have learned with those who feel called to explore their own path of practice, awareness, and personal development.
Namaste
Rebel
