​

I relocated from Darwin to Melbourne in 2009 and now live in the Yarra Valley on an organic permaculture farm (peacefarm.com.au) where I live in connection with the rhythms of nature.  At PEACE Farm I manage a wellness centre where I teach yoga, and facilitate dance and wellness events and retreats. 

 

Teaching

I have taught in a number of different locations and settings since completing my Dip Ed in 2001. I have experience in:

• Secondary Teaching (Multimedia, Photography, Art, ESL)

• Distance Education 

• Adult Education (TAFE, Cert II –IV Multimedia, Video Production)

• VCAL (Computer Studies, Web design, Digital Storytelling)

• Indigenous education (delivering multimedia workshops to remote Top End communities)

• Farm Play - nature based playgroup and kinder program currently running at PEACE farm.

Embodiment & Dance

I studied to be a Japanese Yoga teacher in 2001 and since have developed my own style of yoga incorporating poses that help to shift the energy and emotions in the body, using intentions that are based on the season, moon and astrological cycles, the chakra system, and TCM organs and meridians, to bring greater healing and balance to our WHOLE body (physical body, heart/emotions and spirit). I have since also developed Empowerment yoga, using postures and vocalisation to find and embody our inner strength and voice.  As co-Director of bodyofwellbeing.com.au I collaborate with Louise Wigg on Body of Empowerment workshops for women, promoting positive body image and self-love.  I am a Soul Dance facilitator and help to facilitate regular dance events both at PEACE Farm and in Warburton.

Over 20 years experience in freelance video and audio editing using Final Cut Pro, Adobe Premiere Pro. Most recent projects include a video for Yarra Ranges council Children's Week, The Interplay project's NDIS videos, a promo for Warburton Environment Great Forest National Park,  8 short videos for the Centre for School Leadership, Northern Territory, and a suite of videos for the Menzies School of Indigenous Health Research No Smokes project, NT.  I am currently directing and dancing in a multimedia performance called Moving Landscapes.
 

Nature Art

I am passionate about connecting and creating with nature. I have been sharing this passion through creating nature mandalas. I led a team in creating the Earth Mandala at the Seven Sisters Festival from 2018-2025. I also create seasonal mandalas at PEACE farm.​
