human being yoga

about

Hello and welcome! My name is Rebecca Dunne (she/her) and I am based in Creswick (Dja Dja Wurrung Country) near Ballarat/Daylesford..

Like many others, my yoga journey began with a search for greater meaning in my life, which at the time was full of work, obligations, striving, "busy-ness", stress and attachment. Yoga has helped me to find peace, stillness and joy and I'd like it to help you too!

Yoga is for all human beings, of all ages, bodies and experience/ability levels. With small class sizes, human being yoga is body positive, LGBTQIA+ friendly, and is structured to provide more than just physical fitness.

Classes incorporate hatha-based asana practice tailored to your requirements and level of comfort, plus meditation, chanting and kirtan to create a holistic yoga experience.

I also understand that students want different things out of a class. That’s why in my classes, verbal and physical adjustments are opt-in only. This means that you do not receive any kind of adjustment unless you expressly tell me that you want one (indicated with the use of a visual card you can place on your mat at each class).

My yogic practice is based on the 1,500 year old tradition of Non-Dual Shaiva Tantra which emphasises the interconnectedness of all things, and the non-differentiation between the “divine” and ourselves.

Non-Dual Shaiva Tantra does not view the physical world as an illusion from which we must be set free, but instead views the universe as a real, manifest expression of pure awareness and energy, of which we are all a part.

I am a registered Yoga Australia Teacher and am also accredited in first aid (including mental health first aid).

I am excited to welcome you to my classes and can't wait to meet you!
