Hello, I’m Candice.
It’s really lovely to find you here.
After nearly a decade on the open road as a touring folk musician, I’ve found my roots here on the sweet lands of the Dhudhuroa–Waywurru people in North East Victoria. Life called me home to a more nourishing rhythm, and now I weave my days between being a devoted mother, a trauma-informed yoga therapist and teacher, a therapeutic bodywork practitioner, and a facilitator of circles for women and young people.
My work has grown from both lived experience and years of study — over 800 hours of training from around the globe, and countless lessons from life itself. Each offering I share is grounded in genuine connection, mindful movement, rhythm, music, and the gift of community. I hold a deep devotion to creating safer, welcoming spaces where people can soften into themselves and rediscover what it feels like to be at home in their bodies.
Our Yoga studio is located at St. James Hall - 25 Hammond Street, Yackandandah.
My favourite things to wake up to in the morning are kisses from my beautiful little boy, cuddles from our giant doggo, and a hot cup of tea or coffee! Some days, it is the hardest thing to move beyond these simple pleasures and into the tender, and often painful grips of this big and wild life - but this is my practice : a gentle, and sometimes harsh, unravelling, committed to more body safety and celebration.
In 2015, I undertook my first Yoga studies with my second-greatest teacher to my boy, Shy Sayar of Tantravaya Yoga, on the shores of Thailand. Craving further studies, I took on a specialised Yoga Therapy training in Denmark, EU the following year and have invested in ongoing training with Shy and affiliated teachers since. The last two years have seen my work take a deep dive into the intersections between Yoga, Trauma & Social Justice, leaning into more practices and ways of fostering greater safety and ease in our bodies amidst complex and unjust systems. I continue to learn from incredible teachers such as Sarah Ball & Mei Lai Swan, as well as my continuous stack of bedside books from educators in the trauma-informed conversation (Joanna Macy, Michelle Cassandra Johnson, Bessel Van der Kolk, Stephen Porges, & the list could go on!)
I have shared my teachings in an array of magical locations throughout this country over the last 10 years, spanning across the deep red dirt of Alice Springs, all the way to the rivers and creeks of the Victorian North East, of which I’m lucky enough to now call home.
I look forward to a gentle unravelling with you, somewhere down the line.
