Zoe is passionate about self-enquiry through yoga practice, both for herself and her students. Zoe’s classes reflect her broad interests and experience, including influences from various yoga traditions and teachers and energetic healing therapies. She aims to balance an enquiry into structural alignment and energy flow, with subtle self-awareness and light-heartedness.

Her training includes meridian therapy and qigong studied with Greg Williams, Zen Shiatsu studies with Michie Araki, Zazen meditation with Master Jinen Nagai, and ecstatic dance training with Butoh masters in Japan and Australia.

Zoe is also a Zenthai Shiatsu Therapist, which complements her approach to yoga. Treatments are tailored to your condition and may include a variety of therapeutic techniques including yoga and self-massage recommendations.

“Through Okido yoga, which incorporates many simple shiatsu practices and partner work, I have been working with the healing power of touch, and the deep need for this kind of contact in my life, and in our culture generally. I am passionate about bringing depth, precision and subtlety to this ongoing path of learning. Each encounter with another person teaches me something new. And I truly believe in the potential for this practice to nurture meaningful relationships both with self and others, and with nature.”

Zoe is also a registered Architect with a passion for healing spaces and ethical practice. Having a background in a professional work environment she has an insight into the challenges of creating work-life balance, and compassion for others walking this path towards  wholeness.
