About Vicki

Hi! I'm Vicki and I'm excited to share my passion for yoga with you at Mid Mountains Crossfit. I come from a sporting background, working for many years in a fitness centre in Bathurst as an aerobics instructor and personal trainer. In 1996 I moved to the Mountains with my husband, Andrew. It was around that time a friend dragged us along to a yoga class in Sydney. The strength, elegance and mindfulness of the yoga practice immediately appealed to me. I was hooked and I haven’t looked back. Yoga has become many things to me – most importantly it became my lifeline when my husband died in 2007. And since yoga has been so beneficial for me, physically and emotionally, I felt the need to be able to pass the gift of yoga on to others. Thus it was that I began my long and arduous journey of Iyengar teacher training with Senior Iyengar teacher Lulu Bull in 2010.

I am a certified Introductory Level 2 Iyengar Yoga teacher.I had a hip replacement back in 2014, which has considerably deepened my understanding of the immeasurable benefits of yoga.Every day is a day of learning and developing and progressing in my yoga practice, and as an Iyengar teacher, we undergo regular and strict professional development training.To complement my daily yoga practice, I swim regularly at Lawson pool in the summer months and Glenbrook pool over winter. And I'm a Shodan black belt in Goshin Ryu karate
