Who ARE we?

Here’s what we believe:

Firstly, we acknowledge the traditional CUSTODIans of the land we thrive on, the Whadjuk people of the Noongar Nation and pay respect to the elders past, present and emerging. Our Practice isn’t governed by yoga gurus or pay homage to harmful lineages. We lead from a place of education and equality.

We believe in heat, movement, and sick beats. We believe in science and safety. To learn to move safely and learn to acknowledge the way our bodies feel, instead of moving from the ego. Yoga is for all humans.

We all started where you are, so there’s no room for comparison. This is a place where we celebrate all genders, sizes, sexualities, ages, socioeconomic status’s and ethnicities. Patience, compassion, and time are some of the most valuable gifts you can gift yourself; And you deserve them.

You are important and you matter.

Since this training she has gone on to leading hot yoga teacher trainings and teach at numerous studios globally. Her classes focus on realistic mobility, consistency, humor, and most importantly good music.

Luke green-
Co-Founder/web master

Luke began his yoga journey in 2019. As a long time hospitality expert, he was looking for a way to alleviate mental stress and the physical toll from work. Luke looked to the good ol’ interwebs to find out more about yoga. You can find Luke making a mean spreadsheet and bringing order to the studio. He learned to teach the Modern Hot Yoga in 2025 and never looked back!
