Trina discovered yoga 40 years ago under the tutelage of an inspiring 60 year “young” yoga teacher. Despite a break in her practice to undertake weight training, Pilates and other sports, she was drawn back to the magic of yoga and has embraced it as a life-long holistic practice. Trina passionately believes that yoga provides the ultimate tonic for life – a philosophy that blends physical, mental, emotional and spiritual well-being into one practice that is accessible to everyone. Her classes are varied from week to week, but all will include asana (physical poses), pranayama (breath work), and relaxation techniques. A focus of Trina’s classes is working “from the ground up” to encourage safe alignment and functional movement to deepen our practice and develop strength, mobility and endurance. Trina is a Level 2 qualified yoga teacher and has completed subsequent training with several internationally renowned teachers across many yoga disciplines. She enjoys teaching Yin yoga, Restorative yoga, Hatha yoga, Yoga for older grownups, Yoga Nidra and community yoga in the outdoors. Trina often incorporates a mix of these styles in her classes. Trina also teaches mat-based Pilates and is continually developing her skills across the yoga and wellness spectrum.
