✹ A Life Transformed by Practice ✹

From the Northern Beaches to the Snowy Mountains - a journey of courage, resilience and awakening

Jane's Roots

I grew up on Sydney's iconic Northern Beaches, where I first felt the call to explore beyond the familiar. Before I was 20, I travelled to India with the father of my three sons — a journey that planted seeds of wisdom that would bloom decades later.

When my marriage dissolved, I made the bold decision to change everything. As a single mother, I moved myself and my sons to Jindabyne in the Snowy Mountains and began an entrepreneurial journey to support my family.

"Sometimes the biggest transformations come from the moments that initially feel like endings. My divorce wasn't just the end of a marriage — it was the beginning of discovering who I truly was."

Inspired by the synchronicity of my yoga teacher training and the availability of a disused Country Women's Association hall, I founded the thriving Jindabyne Yoga Shala, which I ran for ten years. That success led to two more businesses, and eventually to creating our retreat and training space on Baragoot Lake in Bermagui. Yoga has been my anchor through every season — supporting me as a single mum, through decades of backing myself in business, and with each win and failure, teaching me to deepen my self-worth and self-reliance. This is why I'm continually driven to share these profound teachings with others.
