Meet Daniela
Daniela Figuera
Yoga / Meditation Teacher
about Daniela
My name is Daniela, people can call me Dani. I'm a scientist, yogi, vegan and a big fan of planet Earth. I consider myself a multi-passionate person that loves researching, exploring and learning about pretty much anything! When I'm not doing research, you'll find me cooking new vegan recipes, in my garden taking care of my veggies, spending time in nature and enjoying life with the people I love.
I started practicing yoga over ten years ago and I've been teaching for 6 years now. My main goal as a yoga teacher is to help people take care of their bodies and minds through conscious movement and mindfulness. By focusing on the transformation that happens within, we can begin to take our practice off the mat and explore our connection to Earth.
What yoga pose means the most to you?
Any grounding pose. I recently discovered that by connecting our bodies with the earth beneath us we can soak up the Earth's vital energy and that can help us release everyday stress and simply feel more aware of our bodies
Where is your favourite place to practice?
I have my little yoga space at home and it's my favourite spot in the house; however, I do love practicing outdoors if the weather is nice! Nothing is more relaxing than settling into Savasana on the beach with the sound of the ocean and the morning sun warming up your body. YUM!

Meet CHRISTIAN
CHRISTIAN RALSTON
Yoga/Mixed Movement/Health Coach
about CHRISTIAN
Christian teaches thoughtful and challenging yoga classes that draw on his personal experience over the years of regaining movement in a tight and injured body.
As you flow to some of the slickest yoga playlists around, you'll be guided with knowledge Christian has learned from some of today's modern yoga and movement greats - including Shiva Rea, Maty Ezraty, Ana Forrest, Simon Park, Noah Maze, Les Levanthal, Ido Portal.
Christian is very dedicated to his own practice and is always on the look out for ways to be challenged and grow, both personally and as a teacher. Christian often spends time looking outside the yoga world to see what other forms of movement could help enhance a yoga practice and he will draw on these frequently to offer students the best and most effective experience possible.
A teacher who guides with passion and takes great pride in being as helpful as he can to all students who come to take his class and has a firm belief that anyone can bring the freedom of movement back to their body with focus, time and dedication.
What yoga pose means the most to you?
Butterfly pose. The longer you're in it the better it feels.
Where is your favourite place to practice?
Anywhere outside.

Meet ELISA
ELISA CRESPO
Yoga Instructor
about ELISA
Elisa is an experienced Yoga instructor with +500hr of Teacher Training. With over 10 years of personal practice and five years of teaching experience between the UK and Australia, she feels very fortunate to have built a wide array of skills.
Although her background is Primary School teaching she found her real passion with Yoga. There's nothing that makes her happier than helping people feel better, helping them realise their full potential, and helping them feel empowered and capable of achieving their goals.
Originally from Spain, she moved to the UK at the age of 21 to learn English and create a better life. Little did she know, she would end up on the other side of the world five years later where she would start a journey to make her dream come true. She is in love with Australia and now calls it her home.
Three years later after a lot of hard work Infinity Yoga came to life! She puts her all into what she does and really hopes that you can benefit from her commitment to her Yoga teaching.
WHAT YOGA POSE MEANS THE MOST TO YOU?
Yoga as a whole means so much to me. Although, if I had to choose only one pose that would certainly be a Wide legged child pose together with breath awareness, it always brings me back to what truly matters, and on top of that, it feels so good!
WHERE IS YOUR FAVOURITE PLACE TO PRACTICE?
Nothing like practising by the sea, enjoying the quietness of an early morning, the sea breeze, the sound of the waves, and the texture of the sand. It really allows me to tune in and reset the mind and body.

Meet Lisa
Lisa Villanueva
Owner of Whispa Wellness.
about Lisa
I'm passionate about helping people to heal physically and mentally which led me to qualify in the two natural healing modalities that I love the most - Remedial Massage and yoga! I have been working in the wellness industry offering these two amazing services for the past 14 years and absolutely love what I do. I am a vinyasa/ashtanga yoga instructor and was lucky enough to study in the beautiful country that yoga originated, India.
I am a huge travel addict and have been to over 38 countries around the world. I love nature, coffee, gelato, summer and living in leggings all day every day!
WHAT YOGA POSE MEANS THE MOST TO YOU?
The good old handstand, also known as Adho Mukha Vrksasana in Sanskrit. Handstands have always been my thing, even when I was a child, I loved being upside down.
WHERE IS YOUR FAVOURITE PLACE TO PRACTICE?
Home, home is where the heart is. Outside on my balcony and in my in-home yoga studio, but let's be honest, I practice anywhere and everywhere and it's always amazing.

Meet Namratha
Namratha Medappa
Yogi Artist
about Namratha
I am a Mysore local who recently moved to Perth. An Ashtangi by heart with a background in Architecture. I started my practice in 2015 and my practice moved me into believing in my creative expression leading to the birth of @yogi_neil, enabling me to reach out to people in different ways. It has been a beautiful journey so far.
WHAT YOGA POSE MEANS THE MOST TO YOU?
Paschimuttanasana (forward fold), cutting the ego has always been so hard for me. So I love the feeling of submitting to self and moving inwards in this pose.
WHERE IS YOUR FAVOURITE PLACE TO PRACTICE?
I like practicing at yoga studios and being a part of the community. Even when I’m travelling, I like to hit up yoga studios just to be able to connect to spaces that hold strong regard to traditional practices. Even if I am far from home, at least the studio is the closest I can be to my Mysore practice.

Meet Venus
Venus Pang
Yoga teacher
about Venus
I'm currently a fourth year medical student living in Melbourne and also teaching yoga in various gyms and studios around the city. My yoga classes incorporate playful sequencing, breath awareness and a clear emphasis on alignment. The focus on moving in alignment is important to encourage longevity and sustainability in our bodies not only during yoga practice but also to cultivate healthy movement patterns in our daily lives.
WHAT YOGA POSE MEANS THE MOST TO YOU?
I love all inversions and the feeling of lightness when I'm upside down, but the handstand is the most meaningful one for me. It took me a long time and a consistent dedicated practice to hold myself upside down on my hands, particularly because I sustained a chronic wrist injury from martial arts when I was 14 years old. Practicing handstands continually teaches me about patience and dedication but also self-compassion - staying committed but not pushing my body too hard.
WHERE IS YOUR FAVOURITE PLACE TO PRACTICE?
My living room while playing my favourite music - there is ample space in case I fall and the way that light fills the room is perfect!

Meet Jean
Jean Liew
Pilates / Yoga teacher.
about Jean
I have been teaching Pilates and yoga for 4years now but have been practicing for 10years. This journey for me has been more than just about pilates and yoga BUT I have been fascinated by every element of movement. My teaching philosophy for all my classes and with all my clients is to create a sequence that encompasses all the key elements to creating a healthy functional body. It’s not just about looking good but feeling soo good!!
Having travelled through Asia and America teaching at retreats and studios, I have recently based myself back home in Perth, WA and opened up my own small private studio. I am also lucky to be teaching at some of Perth’s best studios (Heartbeat high, Body Base to name a few)! Being able to work and absolutely LOVE what I do has been a huge blessing. It constantly drives me to learn more and be better at my craft.
WHAT YOGA POSE MEANS THE MOST TO YOU?
There are too many but I feel teaser in pilates is a pose that to me and for my clients represents success! There is so much control required to feel good in this pose.
I’d have to say I love any seated pose, there is nothing more grounding than taking a seat, holding length in your spine and simply just focusing on your breathe! It is both so restorative and challenging.
Where is your favourite place to practice? (beach, at home, on holidays etc)
At home in my studio space and also on holidays down by the WA coastline, there’s nothing more beautiful than practicing with views of the ocean/sounds of the waves!

Meet Tara
Tara Shamprasadh
Yoga Teacher
about Tara
Born and raised in the UK, I first came to yoga in 2014 whilst studying at Loughborough University searching for a way to destress and reconnect with my body during my final year, after exploring different things, I finally stumbled in on a yoga class at the gym. I enjoy the fun and playful side yoga brings, as well as the mind, body connection. I have been teaching since December 2019 and at some of the best studios in Perth including West Coast Yoga, Vital Beat, and The Studio. I generally teach a grounded but strong yoga class, with a focus on healthy alignment remembering it’s not about how we look, but how we feel.
WHAT YOGA POSE MEANS THE MOST TO YOU?
Downward facing dog. Naturally having more strength in my lower body from sports such as horse riding and trampolining, the first time I did a down dog I could not believe how hard this was for my shoulders! I remember the teacher saying “one day this will become a restful position” and I was like “no way”, it seemed impossible!
WHERE IS YOUR FAVOURITE PLACE TO PRACTICE?
Really anywhere that’s surrounded by good people. Practicing with friends and fellow yoga teachers just lights me up. If we are talking solo practice I like to be anywhere that has a wall so I can use it for support with arm balances etc and have some fun, this is usually at one of the studios I teach at before or after class.

Meet Emily
Emily Reynolds
Barre & Pilates Teacher
about Emily
Originally from the UK, I am now based in Sydney and a mum of two little boys. I started Barre throughout both pregnancies and fell in love with how the movement sculpted my body, gets my heart rate up, and gives you core strength and flexibility whilst leaving you feeling relaxed yet toned, all at the same time. I call this the 'post-barre glow'. Currently, I teach Barre, Pilates, Mums & Bubs and Prenatal classes in Mosman (Barre With Em), Neutral Bay (Pilates360), Woollahra (BodyLove Pilate) and the CBD (Barre Body).
WHAT YOGA POSE MEANS THE MOST TO YOU?
I'm a big fan of bodyweight exercises that you can do anywhere! In a Barre class, I love 'port da bras' with the 1kg hand weights and chaturanga for toning the arms.
WHERE IS YOUR FAVOURITE PLACE TO PRACTICE?
Anywhere outdoors, the rocks at Clovelly beach is divine.
