YOGA CULTURE

My vision is to assist students to go beyond what they thought possible.

I am deeply inspired by working with people at all stages of their yoga experience & helping each individual reach their yoga goals.

By sharing my depth of experience methodically and clearly, each student feels their practice is elevated to a whole new perspective.

I feel it is important to be receptive to the student and imbue the class with a sense of communal support and acceptance for what our bodies and minds can manage at each stage of the journey.

Yoga is a challenging & truly transformative experience which inspires great joy!

ABOUT SUE everett

Throughout the 1980’s I had been living & working overseas as a freelance dancer. In ’89/’90 I returned to Australia to rest & rehabilitate after sustaining a spinal injury. Two of my siblings were going to Iyengar Yoga classes at the time and encouraged me to try it. While at first I had to work therapeutically due to my vertebral disc herniation & related injuries, I immediately gravitated towards a regular practice as the depth of this philosophically based technique had a huge appeal for me.

My father was incredibly knowledgeable about how the human body functioned and moved. When I started ballet he devised a home training system that developed my practice and helped overcome my inherent stiffness.

I am forever grateful for his support and insights.

TEACHING YOGA

I was privileged to first meet BKS Iyengar, or ‘Guruji’ as he is called by his students, in 1992 when he taught in Australia. His generosity and compassion was overwhelmingly present in everything he did. He taught me how to listen to my body and practice deeply and creatively; it was a great gift. A few years later, meeting his eldest daughter Geetaji and being in her classes was for me was a revelation. Her profound abilities to teach and shed light on her fathers’ legacy while supporting each student’s needs was something truly inspiring.

Teaching is something I have always loved doing and I began teaching dance when I was young. One of the best ways to really get to know a subject is to work with it, share it, and teach it, to another person.

Teaching yoga opened up for me as a natural progression from my evolving practice. Over the years I have come to appreciate just how fortunate I am to be able to do what I do.

I now enjoy travelling within Australia and overseas to teach yoga, train & mentor yoga teachers.

I hold an Iyengar Yoga Senior Intermediate 3 teaching certificate.

This paradox describes the essence of yoga…

Our body in harmonic motion, our mind bathed in a silent state; a unifying balance of opposites.

This is the language of Yoga…

The practice & study of Yoga has been used for centuries to unlock the mysteries & complexities of being human.

The pathway to learning & understanding oneself can be as simple as doing a downward facing dog pose each morning to bring clarity and a lighter outlook on life.
