Bringing yoga & coaching closer to home ✦ Challenging you to grow mentally & physically ✦ Embracing you as you are ✦ Creating ‘treat-like’ environments that inspire
Meet Sophie, your yoga teacher and life coach
After spending a decade in the corporate world, Sophie launched Being Yoga in 2020,curating distinctive mindfulness and yoga encounters across Tāmaki Makaurau for fringe communities and corporates. She has nearly 300 hrs of yoga teacher training under her belt and is also a trained Mindfulness Facilitator and Holistic Life Coach, learning more each day through Yale University courses like The Science of Happiness and Health Behaviour Change, and launching the Being Coaching branch of my brand in 2024.
Why life coaching?
For years I struggled to do it all, eventually finding myself in a place of crippling anxiety, fatigue, and panic attacks. I had lost my spark. My zest. My joy in the big things and the little ones.
With the help of some treatment, a life coach, and an immersive 6-month yoga teacher training, things really started to change. For the first time in years I felt connected to myself again.
I knew that there would be hundreds of women out there like me, struggling to make any permanent changes on their own. Now, I combine my lessons on-and-off the mat to help women transition from where they are, to where they want to be.
