TEACHERS

Antonetta

I attended my first yoga class for fun in 1998 in Melbourne, then frequented classes at various Gyms and community centres until 2003 when I moved to Sydney and a friend introduced me to a local dedicated Yoga studio.  I always enjoyed yoga class, but I didn't know exactly why, and it took a commitment to regular practice to begin to understand what was transpiring.  

Having always been a melancholic loner, I started feeling inexplicably happy. This internal joy built as did my confidence and zest and soon I was smiling at strangers, socialising at the bus stop, and making new friends everywhere.  The walls came down and I finally felt like I had arrived in the world.  Life was somehow elevated and I could manage whatever the day threw at me.  I wanted to share this feeling with everyone.  

In 2006 I began the teaching journey with Acharya Upendra Roy in Classical Hatha Yoga.  Transitioning from student to teacher was a tumultuous journey.  I realised how little I actually knew about the yoga that was teaching me so much about myself.  After that, I did every training course and workshop I could, never satisfied that I knew enough.  From 2008, my whole life focus shifted and I found Gurus that offered real Yoga wisdom philosophically and in practice.  With these relationships began a commitment of ongoing daily study and a life commitment to learn, live and practice the Yoga way of Life.
