With a deep respect for the ancient yoga tradition and practice of mindfulness, Erika aims to offer her students inspiration and empowerment, with a sense of fun and down-to-earth approach.

Erika started teaching yoga in 2010 after completing a Dru Yoga Teaching Diploma. She is dedicated to sharing practices and tools to both adults and children that can help them in their everyday lives. Erika aims to live by yoga perspectives – living from a place of connection, presence and compassion. She has trained in teaching children yoga and mindfulness, and has been teaching children since 2012. Erika truly values each individual – adults and children alike. With a deep respect for the ancient yoga tradition and practice of mindfulness, Erika aims to offer her students inspiration and empowerment, with a sense of fun and a down-to-earth approach.

Her teaching is inspired by the practices that have helped her so much in cultivating a sense of inner peace and inspiration in her own life. Her yoga teaching has grown alongside of her journey of motherhood and her children continually teach her to be present and grateful.

Erika is also passionate about the practice of mindfulness and has post-graduate training in teaching yoga and mindfulness to children. She completed training with Mindful Schools in 2016 with the aim of teaching mindfulness to children in schools. Through this, she discovered a deep learning and wisdom within mindfulness, and an understanding of mindfulness as a distinct practice, though with similarities to yoga. She then integrated mindfulness into all her teaching and includes a specific mindfulness component in her classes. Her work with, and program for schools is centered around the wellbeing components of the NSW school curriculum/syllabus.

“Erika is a patient, caring & wise guide for children beginning yoga. She is calming but fun and the kids learn a lot from her they can carry with them outside of the yoga class too. Highly recommend!”
