Somachi Yoga Centre, Prahan, Melbourne, Australia, Oct 2007
Lianne (the founder of Somachi) heard of me through friends in Sydney who she took the Vinyasa Flow teacher training with at the beginning of the year. She emailed me and invited me to teach in Prahan. I was instantly attracted to her studio and more her style because it was developed from her core experience of Tai Chi, Pilates, and Yoga. I knew we had lots to share. And then Nicky (co-owner) and Jim hosted me in their Richmond home and sparks really started to fly. These are a few of the students I was honored to share the weekend with. Im waiting for a few more pictures so that i can share with you....

I was hosted by Nic and her husband Phil. We all surfed at Bondi, and from there a second invitation to teach and all these amazing relationships with my new East Coast yoga friends blossomed....
