About Me

My journey with yoga began in 2012 during a tough time in my life. In my 20s, I struggled with depression and alcoholism, caught in a self-destructive cycle. Yoga and meditation became my lifeline, guiding me from chaos to calm and from darkness to purpose. That personal transformation drives my mission to help others find balance and meaning through these practices.

I’m a graduate of the Hatha Yoga Method 500-Hour Yoga & Meditation Teacher Training at Kookaburra Yoga in Perth, bringing over a decade of personal practice to my teaching. My approach is simple and heartfelt, focusing on making yoga approachable, especially for men who might feel hesitant to start.

When I’m not teaching or practicing, you’ll find me strumming my guitar, diving into a good book, or enjoying the simple joys of life in Kelmscott. This website is my hub for sharing insights, reflections, and practical wisdom – I hope it inspires you to explore your own path. Ready to start your story? Whether you’re curious about yoga, seeking calm through meditation, or here for some thought-provoking reads, I’m excited to connect.
