Hello and welcome to a new third series of the Yoga Teachers Talking Yoga podcast!

Today my guess is Kyra Howearth from Moon Flow Yoga based in Tamworth in central NSW.  Kyra’s taught yoga for 6 years both online and in-person, as well as teaching pilates and reformer pilates!

It’s no coincidence that we’re releasing this episode on the equinox!

Kyra has a passion for astrology and lunar energy, and Moon flow yoga incorporates the various aspects of both into a gentle flow yoga, with yin yoga and sound healing.

She also provides online courses such as Flow with the Moon and teacher training such as her 200hr moon flow yoga and yin yoga courses.  Today she joins me online from her home in Tamworth!

You can find out more about Kyra  at:  Moon Flow Yoga and on instagram at kyrahowearth

Hello and welcome to the Yoga Teachers Talking Yoga podcast

 Today my guest is Sarah Manning, founder of Sarah Manning Yoga, and who has practiced in Singapore, China and Australia. 

Described by her students as a natural teacher, Sarah combines her intuitive yoga and meditation expertise with Chinese practices such as Qi Gong and acupuncture.

She offers fertility and pre-natal workshops along with her own developed techniques such as meditation in motion for women. She has trained teachers in pre and post natal, back care and yin yoga.

Sarah has already been mentioned in this podcast series as a source of inspiration to some of our previous guests.  Her storied yoga career spans three decades and to this day remains a prolific teacher and guide. Today, she joins me online from her home in Singapore.

Note:  References in the discussion to the IYTA relate to the International Yoga Teachers Association, a forerunner of yoga in Australia.  For 57 years, they taught and supported yoga teachers across Australia.  Sadly, the IYTA ceased its operations in 2022.

Welcome to the second series of Yoga Teachers Talking Teaching Yoga podcast!

Today my guest is Muriel Devillierre, founder of Shining Sea Yoga, bringing yoga for a cause and structured for kids, adults and families!

Muriel has a dancing background and combines her experience with discipline, alignment and playfulness to her classes.

Actually I met Muriel in 2021 during our year long diploma of yoga teaching course, that was offered by the now closed International Yoga Teachers Association or IYTA.  Even then, Muriel was able to communicate her enjoyable yoga sequences with a certain lightness allowing an immediate connection from her students.

To date, her teaching has largely been with small groups, but is steadily growing offering intimate outdoor classes with a focus on making her yoga invigorate the soul. She also will start bringing Yoga to kids at after school care!

Note:  References in the discussion to the IYTA relate to the International Yoga Teachers Association, a forerunner of yoga in Australia.  For 57 years, they taught and supported yoga teachers across Australia.  Sadly, the IYTA ceased its operations in 2022.

Hello and welcome to the Yoga Teachers Talking Yoga podcast!

In this series of interviews, we talk to yoga teachers.  We find out what got them into yoga, why they became teachers, how they got started, what styles of yoga interested them, who their inspirations were and finally what their plans are going forward.  

Our last guest in this series is Julian Singh, yoga practitioner, teacher, traveller and author. 

Based in Canberra, Julian has built a corporate career in finance and IT, as well as carving out his own quite unique yoga journey. 

Commencing his yoga practice with his mother in 2002, Julian’s curiosity with breathing, mindfulness and discipline allowed him to deepen his practice in pranayama and concentration. 

He became a certified yoga teacher in 2015 and continues to teach to this day. 

He has travelled extensively, spending around three years minimally backpacking by land through India, Western Europe, and the Americas, and immersing himself in diverse cultures and experiences

Julian has completed a number of Ironman events, ultra-trail runs, and long distance cycling such as from Manhattan to Montauk! 

On top of all that, Julian has a passion for Sanskrit which led him to study the language to a university standard and has recently published his own book  “Sanskrit in Modern Yoga”, combining ancient Vedic philosophy to modern yoga practices and is available now.

You can find out more about Julian’s many interests, works and projects here:  www.juliansingh.com

Today we talk with Katherine Mair, yoga teacher and executive coach and mentor from MAD Mindworks.

Katherine’s  approach and work in corporate wellness and career coaching weaves ancient yoga practices to psychology and neuroscience, in a way that a modern audience can understand.  

Indeed, I myself have benefitted from Katherine’s guidance on finding your value and realising what it can bring to the world.  Indeed, this podcast is one such outcome!
