Meet Carol Merry ❤️

The lead facilitator for our 2027 Gold Coast 200hr Yoga Teacher Training.

Friendly, grounded, professional, humble - and a deep commitment to both the practice and the people she serves.

What stands out most is the trust Carol has cultivated within her community reflecting not only her skill as a teacher but her ability to create meaningful and authentic connections with students. We all know that teaching yoga is a relational practice! It requires deep, deep listening.

When I first heard of Carol it was through the words from our shared students at Yoga for Living ❤️‍🔥. My ears pricked up so I intentionally sat next to her at a staff Christmas lunch.

Then I attended her classes.

All with this idea that I had potentially found the lead trainer of our GC YTT.

I wasn’t attached but I was certainly curious. It’s not a decision I make lightly! I’m excited to now officially pull Carol into our AustraliaYogaTeacherTraining team ❤️

Carol teaches with a depth of understanding that extends beyond the delivery of asanas.

She creates spaces that are inclusive, thoughtful and accessible, meeting students where they are while encouraging meaningful growth.

Carols approach reflects a maturity and steadiness that can only be developed through years of dedicated practice, study and teaching experience.

Early bird registrations are open 🙏

If I could talk only about philosophy for the rest of my life, I’d die happy 🤷🏻‍♀️

Join us.

It’s deep.

The delivery is non-dogmatic and gentle.

An opportunity to reflect.

Which is a vital thing to do if we are looking for meaningful change.

If you’re curious reach out 🙏

LIVING YOGA 🌿

Yoga - it’s how we move through our relationships.

How we respond when things don’t go our way.

How we meet uncertainty, conflict, change, discomfort - and each other.

But how often do we actually get to talk about that type of yoga?

Living Yoga is a monthly community circle where we come together to explore our yoga practice off the mat.

No need to have all the answers.

No need to be “good” at yoga or philosophy.

No need to share anything you don’t want to.

We’ll use the wisdom of Patanjali’s Sutras as a starting point.

The sutras will be laid out face down, and you’ll intuitively choose one.

Then we’ll explore what comes up for you through the lens of that particular teaching.

And somehow, it’s often uncanny how relevant the sutra becomes.

We’ll hear stories.

Share stories.

Reflect together.

A chance to get beneath the small talk.

To be seen, heard and felt.

To explore how yoga is actually showing up in our lives — in our homes, our relationships, our work, our struggles and our everyday moments.

Living Yoga.

A community circle for the things we’re all navigating, but don’t always get the chance to talk about.

🌿 Monthly
🌿 Everyone welcome
🌿 No philosophy or yoga experience required

This Friday, we explore a foundational layer of yoga philosophy - not as rules to follow perfectly, or as a way to fix ourselves, but as an invitation to notice.

How do we create harmony?

Where do we create disconnection?

How do we speak, listen, hold on and let go?

We are not broken.

We are human.

Made up of countless patterns.

Patterns that supported us.

To help us stay safe and to belong.

But some patterns become outdated.

Then what?

The first step is in the simple, gentle practice of awareness.

Then the radical practice of acceptance.

After all, we are simply human ❤️

With acceptance, change naturally occurs.

The practice of yoga doesn’t end when we step off the mat.

That’s when the deeper practice begins.

Friday 10-12 AEST

Online via Zoom.

Booking essential 🫶🏼

Teaching yoga can sometimes feel isolating. There is often a gap between when we finish our teacher training and move forward our new career as a teacher!

These circles are a way to fill that gap.

They are supportive, empowering and casual.

And you are welcome to join us at any stage of your teaching ❤️

What if the patterns that keep repeating in your life aren’t random?

This July, Evie and I are bringing together two approaches that rarely share a room: Patanjali’s Yoga Sutras and Gestalt therapy.

What happens when you place them side by side is fascinating.

Both are exploring the same territory:
• The patterns we get caught in
• How those patterns were formed
• Why we keep repeating them
• What it actually takes to create lasting change

Together we’ll explore how your mind works, how conditioning shapes the way you think, react, and relate, and how to begin moving differently in ways that genuinely stick.

We’ll dive into philosophy.

We’ll explore psychology.

And we’ll bring it all back to your actual life so the insights become practical, relevant, and useful.

We’ve also just released the pre-retreat audio, laying the foundation of Samkhyan philosophy and Patanjali’s Yoga Sutras, so you can begin exploring these ideas before arriving.

✨ July 16–19
✨ Springbrook

For yoga teachers, this retreat is fully accredited and offers a rare behind-the-scenes look at how we design, theme, prepare, and facilitate workshops and classes for large groups with diverse needs, abilities, and limitations.

You’ll have access to a dedicated teachers’ circle where you can ask questions, unpack the process, and explore the craft of teaching more deeply.

And you absolutely do not need to be a teacher to attend. In fact, many participants aren’t.

As a bonus, we’ll also be opening the first release of places for our 2027 international retreat. Only 10 spots will be available.

Come curious.

Leave with a deeper understanding of yourself and practical tools for creating change.

Only a few spots left!

Best thing about are their ‘in and out in 30 minute’ bootcamp sessions.

Oh, and…

I teach a Tuesday night Yin-ish class that’s included for all the members! 🤙🏼

6-6:45pm

If you’re looking for somewhere to train, I recommend giving this place a go 🙌

If you’ve been thinking about coming to .festival.brisbane this year, I’ll actually be guiding one of the opening class - a Yin yoga class!

This Yin class will be a floor based practice to suppprt your arrival, and truly settle into the experience before moving into a day full of yoga!

Yin yoga works deeply into the body through longer held shapes that help release tension, calm the nervous system, and create space physically mentally and emotionally.

It’s a powerful practice for stress, overwhelm, tight hips and backs, mental fatigue, and reconnecting to yourself beneath the noise of daily life.

So if you’re craving a weekend of yoga, connection, inspiration, community, and a little more space to breathe… come join us.

I’ll be teaching at 9am - come find me ❤️

And Ella’s famous chocolate self saucing pudding.
