Meet our Yoga Instructors
Nicole Roukens
Nicole will be taking you on your Yoga journey:
“I have always been passionate about physical activity and the benefits it brings to the body and mind. This passion drew me to studying exercise science and rehabilitation at university, providing me with a strong understanding of the body and exercise principles. In later years I started teaching the Les Mills Body Balance program. Loving movement to music and the beautiful flow of this class. I have always loved learning and this drew me to completing my STOTT Pilates mat qualification.
Yoga is a beautiful practice for calming the body and centring the mind. I was first exposed to Yoga in high school and have always been drawn back.It started to become more important in my life following the birth of my first child and my need to create mental space and peace.
After having my second child I decided I needed to make some time for myself and do something I have always wanted to do – learn more about Yoga, its philosophy and complete my teacher training.
This has been such a special self-development opportunity and now I am able to share the practice with other yoga lovers on the mat.
I love flowing sequences, precise technique, connection with the breath and practicing movements that we can take into our later life.”
Tara Rawson
“Hi all, my name is Tara Rawson. I am from South Australia and have been living in Broome for the past 3 and a bit years. I’ve been practising yoga for the past 10 yrs and finally completed my Yoga Teacher Training in 2019 with Yoga Koh in Bali. I’ve been teaching ever since, I love sharing something I am so passionate about and I am enjoying the challenge. I love yoga because it allows me to find space both physically and mentally, helps my move my body mindfully and makes me feel more relaxed, energised and patient. I also enjoy surfing and free diving and I have found yoga has helped my flexibility and strength for surfing and the Pranayama (breath) has helped my breath holds and relaxation underwater.
I teach Vinyasa Flow Yoga, which involves making different shapes with your body in a flowing sequence, often repeated 2 or 3 times to allow you to move with more focus, intention and breath connection once you get the flow. The classes always start with 5 or so minutes of breath, followed by a warm up, flowing sequence and cool down into shavasana (corpse pose) where you can completely relax.
I hope you see you in one of my classes soon.
Namaste “
Lea Christine Happes
200hrs registered Yoga teacher, had first planted the seed of concept of Yoga in her mid teens, when being introduced to a practicing group in a small village in Italy, by her most admired “yogi” her mum!
But it hasn’t been until her travels to Australia in her early twenties, that she has dedicated a committed everyday practice @The Raw Kitchen Yoga Studio, while living in Fremantle, and being led by her loving and supportive teachers through Hatha and mainly Vinyasa classes, creating here the foundation of her practice.
When moving to Broome and finding a sacred yoga space she began exploring a dynamic yoga practice. This included Iyengar Yoga and meditation classes, her practice not only remained a passion but also flourished as a way of living, and created curiosity and desire in deepening her knowledge.
After one year of a Hatha Vinyasa Flow teacher training @The Yoga Space, Lea, is still dedicated to an everyday disciplined practice, balancing led classes with self practice, in order to explore the growing awareness of the body and mind connected by the breath, in each Asana, with the intention to spread the science and art of yoga as felt by her with “love from the heart”, keeping the aim to plant seeds of awareness and connectedness through dynamic vinyasa flow sequences, emphasising on alignment in the various postures, while keeping the pace through the breath leading the movements, enabling her students to explore and flourish through their active engagement, preparing the body and mind for a conclusion of the class in a basic and still meditation practice!
