Chantelle Sims
Hi, I’m Chantelle and I fell in love with yoga three years ago when a good friend of mine started teaching in Ipswich. I had never practiced yoga before and shyly went along to my first Vinyasa yoga class. What I experienced in that class was so profound and I knew in that moment that something had stirred deep within my soul like I was coming home to myself. When my yoga teacher moved away I struggled to find a Vinyasa class that had the flow I was looking for so I decided to complete my training and create my own.
I practiced my level one training with Being Yoga on the beautiful Sunshine Coast and I will continue to study my level two training towards the end of the year. I am looking forward to learning all I can about this ancient practice. I like to offer beautiful flowing vinyasa classes that focus on moving with the breath and coming together as a collective to experience that feeling that yoga keeps us coming back for.
My classes are very beginner friendly and offer a range of asanas, breath work yin style and meditation. I like my students to walk out feeling better than when they walked into class! Yoga truely is a transformative practice that changes not only our lives but the lives around us as well.
I cannot wait to practice yoga in a dedicated studio within Ipswich to create a community of yogis to share and grow with. I look forward to meeting you on the mat.

Andrea Henning
I found yoga (or yoga found me) during my first pregnancy. I was instantly in love with this path to still my busy mind, enabling connection with my baby and my pregnant body. My professional life is in the healthcare sector, so with my children grown, I found my way back to the mat, re-connecting with that stillness and grounding.
I love the diversity and breadth of yogic practices, and am deeply fascinated with Ayurveda and marrying ancient principles and practices with my expertise in western health sciences. I love how yoga is inclusive and for every body, it is the gift that keeps on giving, and I am here to share the love!
