Description

Hi! I'm Sally. and I'm from Australia. I am a happy person with a sunny disposition, and I like to live in the moment. I am quick learner, and I try to make the most of any opportunity that presents itself to me.

I love yoga and live a yogic lifestyle, following the eightfold path in my every day life. I have around 1300hrs of yoga teacher training in asana, pranayama and meditation. Most recently I have gained my Diploma in Yoga Therapy. I have a strong home practice and love to teach. I'm also a sound healer and a massage therapist.

On the business side of things, I have helped upskill massage therapists through continued training in massage therapy and running a massage spa, and am currently helping to set up retreat centres in Asia, including writing business plans, marketing analyses and proposals. I am learning more and more about website design and social media.

I have just returned to my teaching roots as a digital nomad, tutoring students online (max 10 hours/ week). I usually get a SIM card for the country I am in, so while access to wifi is appreciated, it isn't necessary. I've also timed my hours to be friendly to Asia, the UK and Europe timezones.

I am open minded and respectful, and always curious.I am currently looking for Workaway opportunities that will allow me to stay in one place for a month at a time, to really build community rather than just passing through.

If I sound like someone you would like to host, please reach out! I'd love to meet you.

More details about your skills

I qualified as a yoga teacher in 2018 and have around 1300 hours of yoga teacher training in asana, pranayama and meditation. I have taught consistently for the past 8 years. My main styles are hatha, vinyasa, yin and restorative. I am also a qualified (2021) specialised pranayama and meditation teacher, and hold a Diploma in Yoga Therapy (levels 1 and 2).

I have worked as a Polynesian style body worker (KaHuna, Lomi Lomi) for 4 years as a full time gig. I can give both therapeutic and relaxation massage, and have specialised (therapeutically) in working with the hips to help ease lower back and hip/ leg pain. I am trained in traditional Indonesian (Pijat) massage as well.

I qualified as a personal trainer in 2015, and worked in this until 2017, when I returned to a full time job.

I love working with people to help them to find health and comfort in their bodies, and this has become a passion of mine.

I am a self starter and highly motivated, and am aware and cognisant of the challenges and rewards of starting a small business, something I can help with if you're thinking about doing this too.

I'm an early to bed, early to rise kind of person, and live a quiet and clean lifestyle.

Age

57

What else ...

I am a clean living person. I don't smoke, take drugs or drink alcohol. I try to look after my body.

I love to surf, scuba dive and to snow ski, and would be keen to take on anything that would give me time in places where I can take part in these hobbies. I have my open water diving ticket.
