It didn’t take long before Lucy realised there was something special about yoga after her first class at 23. It was like nothing she had ever experienced, and the effects were instantly positive on her sleep quality and mental well-being.
After taking the plunge and becoming a teacher after being a student for 10 years, she’s worked at some of the best studios in Melbourne.
Lucy has assisted in Yin Yoga trainings, retreats, and been mentored in Yin by Jody Vassallo before beginning to run retreats and workshops in the in 2023.
Lucy’s approach to Yoga is light-hearted and welcoming, hoping to show students that Yoga is truly accessible to everyone.
Lucy’s classes have a strong element of storytelling and focus on energetics; expect Reiki-infused touch in Flow + Yin classes.
