Hi, I’m Helen, your teacher at Nurture Yoga and Meditation
I’m a Yoga and Meditation Teacher, Childbirth Educator, Registered Nurse and mother to two beautiful young children.
I am here to guide and empower you to reconnect with and care for yourself using the practices of Yoga. My offerings integrate Yoga teachings and my knowledge and experience as a health professional to support you in finding the practices that suit your body, mind and energy.
My passion and expertise lies within the realm of guiding women through the journeys of pregnancy, birth and parenting with practical, meaningful teachings. I also specialise in general Hatha and Restorative Yoga, drawing on my professional experience as a Clinical Nurse Educator and Registered Nurse to help you find the movements that are safe and comfortable for your body.
My partner and I have had the pleasure of creating Young’s purpose-built Yoga and Meditation studio. The space is accessible for mobility aids, wheelchairs and prams. All our classes, workshops and retreats can be found in this warm, welcoming Yoga space in Young NSW.
