SHARE YOUR EXPERIENCE: A city girl who moved to Bundy for her love.
If you had only one word to describe what yoga is to you, what would it be?
“Grounded. I just turned 35, I moved from Sydney to Bundaberg 2 years ago after I met my fiancé. I work as a sales assistant at haight and Ashbury and help my fiancé with his own business ‘Just Tinting‘.”
“I truly can say I’m a better person, I handle life better, I feel happier and I can breathe better.”
When did you start doing yoga and what makes you want to continue?
“I continue to practice as i like the way I feel during and after class. I start practicing yoga in Sydney for some time with my friend who is a yoga teacher. I have tried different yoga classes but I couldn’t find one that I enjoyed until I heard about Carmen who is from Sydney and she moved to Bundaberg. Since then I feel like I have been practicing yoga forever with Carmen.”
Carmen is my number one inspiration as I can see how hard she works to be able to do the poses and how hard she works to run a business be a mum and a wife. I feel like other regular yogis inspirer me as well as I can see how practices equals progression so I guess I inspire myself when I achieve something new! ”
How often do you attend yoga classes?
“I try to practice as often as I can I even challenge myself to do every class in the week which I have achieved but as a rule if I get to three classes a week I’m happy but most of the time I manage more it just depends on what’s going on in my life! ”
(My first 30-Day Yoga Challenge, It was amazing and proud of myself! )
What is you next goal or challenge?
“My main focus is do not fear anything in yoga I worry I will hurt myself when I’m upside down! I’m still working on the tripod headstand I feel I can physically achieve this but fear gets in my way! ”
“I like Carmen’s way of teaching I find her class to be strong but gentle and I love her sense of humour!”
“Carmen is a fantastic teacher of yoga i believe she was born todo this she is very knowledgeable, tough and kind at the same time.”
Would you like to share something with those who might be thinking about doing yoga in the near future?
“I believe Carmen is a genuine person that wants the best for her fellow yogis. You will always feel welcome in the classes with the lovely teachers from Love Life. Live Yoga.”
