Erleen Oldham yoga bio Yoga Teacher
Erleen Oldham

Erleen has been practicing yoga for over 12 years. Wanting to share the benefits she has gained from a regular practice she completed her 200hr yoga teacher training through Jayayoga in 2021, followed by a four month mentorship to complete a year of training and become a Yoga NZ registered teacher.
Erleens focus is on a safe sustainable practice, balancing building strength and flexibility both in the mind and body, on and off the mat. Combining breath, body and the more subtle elements of yoga with knowledge and training in trauma and mental health awareness Erleen aims to offer a complete practice that may offer elements of challenge but is also sensitive to the nervous system.

Mary Brooker yoga bio Yoga Teacher
Mary Brooker

Mary has attended various yoga classes for more than 10 years. To advance her own practice she undertook level 1 Purna Yoga Teacher training in Byron Bay in 2019.  Purna means ‘complete’ in Sanskrit, so the training included aspects of all the 8 limbs of yoga.  For Mary, teacher training has been a life changing experience facilitating daily self practice. Teaching  and sharing this knowledge feels like the natural progression.  As a health practitioner she understands the importance of maintaining fitness, flexibility and strength as we get older, and that in todays hectic life, the skills to focus inwardly and relax are invaluable.
