 Through this course I began to learn and grow in ways I’d never
   imagined, it was genuinely transformational. I met and was
taught by beautiful people who encouraged and inspired me – and
  who continue to do so. Initially I was concerned because I was
     overweight but I soon realised ‘yoga is for every BODY’.

                     Teaching Faculty

             Kym Lakshmi McDonald |                     PRINCIPAL TEACHER

             Post Graduate Diploma of Yoga Therapy
             Senior Level Yoga Teacher with Yoga Australia
             Certificate IV in Ayurveda
              Current President of Yoga Australia
             During her 17-year journey with yoga and other healing modalities, Kym was drawn to Krishnamacharya’s
             holistic approach, moving beyond just the physical body to heal and help the whole person. With this in
             mind, Kym founded Yogic Wisdom and the Karma Yoga Foundation where she and the faculty combine
             the art and science of Yoga Therapy and yoga to share the wise ancient teachings of yoga.

  What draws me to Kym is her integrity. She’s a teacher who holds
   herself to high standards and she has high expectation for her
students. She doesn’t teach for numbers or sales, its about spreading
  yoga into the community. For her it’s a calling, not an occupation.
                                              — ALEXANDRIA JOY

            Geraldine Coren Geraldine has been practising Yoga since 1997 and teaching since 2000. Initially
            training with the Sydney Yoga Centre, she was then mentored in the tradition of Krishnamacharya by
            Michael de Manincor at The Yoga Institute and studied with Krishnamacharya’s son, TKV Desikachar, and
            his family. Geraldine has senior qualifications as Yoga Teacher and Yoga Therapist.

            Annie Phelps Annie has 35 years’ experience as a practicing physiotherapist, giving her a deep
            practical knowledge of anatomy and physiology. Her studies in the Krishnamacharya lineage of yoga and
            Yoga Therapy have deepened and extended her application of this knowledge. It has also proven that
            there is nothing yoga cannot touch and revive, be it physical, emotional, mental and/or spiritual. Annie has
            qualifications as a Yoga Teacher, Yoga Therapist and a Bachelor of Physiotherapy.

            Jo Rawlings Yoga is a way of life for Jo and she’s been exploring yoga and its' different lineages for over
            10 years. She’s found the practice of the Krishnmacharya lineage the most profound and says ‘it felt like
            coming home’. Her study of Yoga Therapy, combined with her 30 years as a practicing pharmacist, gives her
            an extensive knowledge of the human body, disease states and the tools that can be used to help students
            along a path of healing and growth. Jo has qualifications as a Yoga Teacher, a Yoga Therapist and has a
            Bachelor of Pharmacy.

            Lisa Relic Lisa teaches classical yoga in the tradition of Krishnamacharya, helping students bring
            together the physical practices of Hatha Yoga with the meditation practices of Raja Yoga. Lisa is passionate
            about facilitating the journey of self -transformation at many levels through the simple practice of uniting
            the body, mind and breath and encourages students along this path through her teaching. Lisa has
            qualifications as Yoga Teacher, Yoga Therapist and a Meditation teacher.

 Studying Yoga Teacher Training was the beginning of an amazing and
 expansive journey for me. Yogic Wisdom’s course explores the roots of
traditional yoga and helped me establish a daily practice. By taking this
course, not only will you be a fully qualified and confident yoga teacher –
                     you will be investing in yourself.
