WHAT STUDENTS
ARE SAYING
YOGA
"Peter and I both love your sessions for the restorative benefits we get- we feel you are really responsive to what we need and you cater so well to us 50+ folk. I particular appreciate your long gentle warmups, focus on gentle efficient and effective movements, your options and how you model the easier options, you provide supportive feedback and actually notice what we are doing, you move slowly so we have time to get into positions. "
- Linda & Peter
"Jackie has an encouraging, and patient teaching style. I really appreciated her clarity, commitment and support throughout the series. Well prepared, acknowledged where individuals were at in the process and practices. Excellent series...thank you. Lesley"
- Lesley
"Jackie's Foundation Series rocked my world! The deceptively gentle-looking practices enabled me to feel an interconnectedness of different body parts and with the ground beneath me the likes of which I don't remember experiencing before. Possibilities of new ways to stand, breath and move with more ease and grace opened up. Jackie's delivery and holding of space is excellent. Do yourself a favour! "
- Megan
"I've improved 3 precious qualities over the course of the series - strength, balance and grace. Jackie teaches this unique approach with enthusiasm, skill and welcoming ease. "
- Janet

- Janice
"Jackie, your passion for yoga and particularly this gentle and restorative style is infectious, and you have such a gift. I just felt people really need to know about the sensations, subtleties, awareness, release, trust, surrender, pleasure, self-satisfaction, pride, nurturing & love we all feel when we are in your classes."
- Rick
"Letting you know you are appreciated 💖 The sushi roll has entered my daily practice 🙏🏼 I was sad to find so much pain and inability in myself during class...but felt longer and leaner and lighter for attending. Today giving thanks for all that DOES work. "

I’m loving Jackies way with yoga ! Less is more comes to mind with a focus on slowing down and listening to the subtleties. I enjoy and find this way more effective. It enables me to honour where my body is at, giving it what it needs by being more conscious during my practice.
- Mary Jane
I came to the course with an aggravated, spasming psoas and a history of anxiety and adrenal fatigue. The Psoas series offered ways of soothing & nurturing my muscles and nervous system that were gentle but powerful. Jackie's passion for this work is evident and she creates a wonderful space for healing and learning.
- Megan
Jackie's Yoga has evolved over the 8 years I have been attending her classes and courses. Her renewed space at Brunswick Heads is great. She is always supportive and up for contributions, adapts her classes to allow for injuries, age, lack of practice and new people. Her classes are paced well for different energy levels. Each class has a component of newness and inspiration and has kept me returning again and again.
- Trish
I highly recommend Jackie’s Chakra Balancing course, as I would any of her courses! Jackie’s knowledge and ability to meet each individual’s needs during the course is exemplary. She leads you through a journey exploring each of the chakras and how they effect us in a beautiful, gentle fashion that encompasses not only movement but also includes some breath work and meditation. The space she creates is warm and welcoming and was always the highlight of my week.

DANCE
"Beauty and sensuality at its greatest depth. Amazing work you do Jackie. "
- Rosie
"It was exquisite, Jackie!! Thank you from the bottom of my heart for this! I’m still bathing in the afterglow."
- Iris
"I felt like there was an unspoken respect, a connection through this respect, and consensual vulnerability that allowed us all to show up to the depth we needed to on that given day. "
- Meagan
"Jackie hold a very special safe space that allows an unfolding within ourselves and an opening outwards that creates strong connection with the other woman and a cohesiveness within the group - a wonderful heart opening experience. "
- Sarah
"I loved Jackie's relatability to the feminine. I felt safe under her guidance as she’s clearly a skilled movement practitioner of many modalities yet her delivery is fun and playful. You don’t realise you’re meeting your edge and challenging yourself because your playing and in your own world under her umbrella of gentle confidence. I came out of her sessions with my body feeling fully expressed but not overworked, my heart full of joy and accepted fully with cup brimming to spill onto the world. Her classes are pure blissful joy a gift for the self, highly recommend! "
- Kate
"I recently did my first ever sensual embodied dance class with Jackie. I was initially a little nervous but very quickly felt at home with the other lovely women. The dance was like an exploration of self discovery, listening to my body and her needs and feelings of such aliveness. I was able to surrender and trust and felt held and nurtured. Jackie communicated beautifully and her gentle way, both passionate and knowledgeable about the dance. Thank you, thank you, thank you "
- Annita
"Lisa and Jackie held space for a dance class like nothing I've experienced before. They helped each woman present to express herself with her body without judgement. For me, it was so freeing to tune into how my body wanted to move and just let it dance ME, without thinking about anyone or anything else. I'm already looking forward to my next class with you both. "
- Benay

Jackie has such a warm, inviting presence and is a natural facilitator. I love knowing that I can fully let myself go in her classes and leave feeling completely revitalised!
- Kate
Something that really stands out for me with SED is the permission to come as I am - whatever that looks like on the day and I will be unconditionally accepted. It allows me to come to class, even when I feel like a mess and I will leave class in a much lighter and energised place.
- Bec
Words can not explain how magical Jackie is at what she does! Being new to SED I was hesitant and nervous to show up not knowing what to expect from this experience... Jackie is warm, welcoming & caring. She creates a very clean and safe container and is able to navigate and honour any process that may arise in her class - true experienced professional.... I was held so beautifully, no judgment, no interference, just love and acceptance by Jackie and the other attendees. I felt safe to be myself and to dance my way to reconnecting once again with who I am. Jackie is so passionate about what she does it’s infectious. It’s a beautiful self care practice I keep going back to again and again and I’ve made some great friends too!
- Sally
This workshop was just absolutely divine, facilitated by some incredibly powerful and wise women Courtney and Jackie! It was a beautiful judgement free space to come as you are and be witnessed in your fullest expression through movement. There is no doubt you will be pushed to your edges but you’ll walk away feeling completely alive, loved, nourished and deeply connected with your Self and soul sisters.
