About Us
Welcome to Brisbane Yoga Therapy!
I'm Genevieve, the heart behind this space, and I'm delighted to share a bit about my journey and what we represent. My mission is straightforward—to make the practice of yoga and meditation accessible to all abilities and levels. I meet you where you are, providing a compassionate and supportive environment.
As a certified Yoga and Meditation Therapist, my journey includes training in Power Yoga, Restorative Yoga, Kids Yoga, and Yoga and Meditation Therapy. I've also explored trauma-informed teaching, yoga for pain management, gut health, the food-mood connection, and yoga for relationships, among other areas.
Yoga has been a transformative force in my life, shaping my perspectives and daily practices. Beyond my yogic journey, I find joy in various sports and activities, from my early years in ice hockey to coaching gymnastics for 15 years, practicing martial arts, golfing, and engaging in gym workouts.
Becoming a mom to two incredible twin girls, one with Down syndrome, has added profound purpose to my life. Our family adventures in camping and travel light up our days. This personal journey fuels my commitment to making yoga accessible to individuals of all abilities.
Thank you for being here, and I'd love the opportunity to empower you on your purposeful life journey. Forever grateful for my practice and all my teachers.

What Our Clients Say
"My daughter who has special needs has been attending twice weekly yoga sessions with Genevieve through Brisbane Yoga for about a year now. Genevieve conveniently holds the classes after school one afternoon and one class before school in the school grounds. My daughter's strength and co-ordination has improved out of sight over the last year as commented by her occupational therapist and seen by ourselves. I would highly recommend Brisbane Yoga for any child as my daughter loves attending the classes and looks forward to them each week. I particularly love how Genevieve listens to my concerns and the problem areas Sienna has and tries to tailor the exercises in the class. Great job Genevieve! " Amanda
"Genevieve has a fantastic connection with children and is well respected by them. Our daughter has been attending Brisbane Yoga Therapy with Genevieve for over a year and really loves it. Genevieve's sessions are a perfect tonic to relax the children of any anxieties and prepare them for the busy day ahead." David
"Genevieve is an amazing yoga Therapist. My Son looks forward to his weekly class with her. She gives very clear but yet concise instructions to him and she knows how to keep him engaged throughout the session. Sometimes he refuses to follow, Genevieve quickly tries with the music & other methods so that it's fun. The session has breathing routines, asanas and some chanting to practice correct breathing techniques. I can see my son has gained lots of confidence to do more asanas and to stay on the task. Thank you for being my son's Yoga Therapist xox." Nalini
"Genevieve did an excellent job with my son, who was born with Down syndrome. She is kind, compassionate, patient, and possesses excellent professional skills. Her enthusiasm in teaching yoga to my son completely exceeded my expectations. I could not have asked for a better yoga therapist than Genevieve." J.Y.L.
"Gen quickly built rapport with our daughter who lives with Down syndrome, and over the last year has created a yoga therapy program that responds to her unique needs. Each session she provides feedback on what they worked on, and looks for additional ways to support Kirra to with challenges such as reducing anxiety and improving core strength." Wendy
"My daughter attends yoga after school each week and never did yoga before, she was instantly hooked, loves going each week, she has learnt so much including balance, deep breathing and relaxing movements. My daughter applies the techniques from yoga to her day to day life, particularly the deep breathing and calming relaxation poses. As a busy working parent having this extra curriculum activity offered after school has provided the opportunity to our daughter. Her yoga teacher is patient, kind, warm and welcoming. I know she cares about my daughter and offers her a safe environment to be herself and thrive. I would not hesitate to recommend Brisbane Yoga Therapy." Michelle
