YOGA FIRST is a Yoga school, established in 1976 with outreach into the community on a national and international Level. Our courses are accredited with The Australasian Yoga Institute and taught under its auspices. Our courses are also accredited by the International Accreditation and Recognition Council.

She has been a student of yoga for more than half a century, and continues to be one. She is an Ordained Minister, and is on the Advisory Board of the "Step Into Life" organisation. She is also a trained Clinical Hypnotherapist, Therapeutic Masseur, and Reflexologist specialising in the art of Traditional Chinese Reflexology and pedicure.

Our Distance Education Yoga School is attended by students in Italy, Japan, the USA and of course all round Australia. The Studio established 1976 (and the Wellness Centre established May 2004), located in the Macedon Ranges in Victoria (Australia) accepts students from the age of 2 days onwards. Yes, we have had very tiny students in our "Mums+One " classes.

We also offer: YOGA TEACHER REGISTRATION. If you are a Yoga teacher who has not formally qualified, but has done years of teacher training, we can register you. Please email us, and we will send you the forms required, you complete them, and then mail them back to us. This could save you years, and many hundred of dollars learning what you already know.

If you meet all the requirements (and I am sure you will!), and after we have received all your documentation, we will forward to you a beautiful certificate, complete with gold embossing you can proudly display. And importantly, it will help you to get your Professional Indemnity Insurance.

You will then of course be able to proudly use the letters RYTA500 (or RYTA200 as the case may be) after your name.

WE ALSO OFFER:

  *YOGA CLASSES - all ages and abilities

  *WORKSHOPS - "ELEMENTAL YOGA", STICK FIGURE DRAWING, and of course YOGA

  and personal one-on-one structural yoga therapy, and reflexology
