Yoga Classes 2021, 2022

I wanted to let you know how deeply I’m enjoying your yoga classes. You provide a wonderful balance between containment and space, guidance and silence, and movement and stillness. I’ve also never been able to so readily connect to the difference between purusa and prakritti as when you guide us into this exploration – Natalie H, Yoga Therapist, Yoga Teacher, Psychologist

“Just sitting at Brisbane airport reflecting in what a beautiful week I have had. Thank you for the care, energy and thoughtfulness that you out into both the planning and preparation of the retreat as well as your wonderful teaching”. I feel like I am in a little bubble just about to enter back into the “hurly burly” of mu everyday world. Will try hard to remember some of your teachings from this week to preserve my sense of peace?” ~ Sue

“I feel wonderful since the yoga retreat; I’ve been practising my meditation daily and loving it. The retreat has been a truly positive experience for me. It’s the best gift I’ve given myself, a whole week to just be – Bliss! I’ve been busy trying to reproduce some of those fabulous dinners, may have to back back to Sanctuary. Anyway, I definitely feel so much lighter and stringer within. Thanks again for the opportunity”. ~ Vanda

“Thanks again for putting everything together, we really loved our time at the retreat. It really was a time for us to chill out and focus. A perfect way to end a honeymoon. – albeit one that most of our friends thought was a little out there and crazy! Nevertheless we couldn’t have thought of a better way to spent it. Keep in touch with your latest developments as we could be easily tempted for another weekend down in Victoria”. ~ Sam & Maddy

“May the spirit of the weekend burn bright for a long time. What a euphoric weekend”. ~ Helen, yoga teacher, personal trainer

“Thanks so much Gabrielle for the beautiful retreats you create. You seem so at ease in what could be a stressful position and I wonder how you do it, maybe it’s part of your practice. Whatever, it works really well with you at the helm. You create a beautiful space for us to come to, be in and share. You’re an exceptionally beautiful person to be around. That’s why it works so well”. ~ Kristen, yoga teacher
