Rebecca B Barrett

Rebecca discovered yoga whilst working in a stressful and unfulfilling job as a lawyer. Initially inspired by the tangible physical benefits, with time she noticed a mental shift too. It became clear to her that although many of us tick all the boxes in the material world, we do not take time to cultivate our internal world, so we feel empty. Yoga can give that spiritual fulfilment as a system of techniques. You don’t even have to excel at these techniques. Just keep showing up on the mat and using them, and you will see positive results. It became apparent to Rebecca that she should share yoga’s various benefits through teaching.

Rebecca has 1700+ hours of teacher training. Her 200 hour foundational training was with Power Living and she then undertook a further 400 hours at Body Mind Life, including an advanced sequencing course with Noelle Connolly. She has an 800 hour Certificate IV with Byron Yoga Centre, and has most recently completed a 300 hour training with Yoga Beyond and Bryce Yoga.

For Rebecca, yoga is a way to break through boundaries, both physically and mentally. She believes strongly that as we age, our bodies and minds do not have to deteriorate so rapidly, and a consistent yoga practice allows us to keep our ‘yoga glow’ through all stages of life! Her classes are all about playfully testing limits. She uses her gymnastics background as a tool to gently encourage students to explore outside of their comfort zone. There is nothing quite like a well earned savasana!
