"Each day, live to elevate yourself. Each day elevate one person.
Make elevation your religion and you shall reach Infinity."

Yoga with Ilka
I am a highly qualified yoga teacher with roughly 1000hrs of training. I passionately teach four different styles of yoga: Hatha Vinyasa, Kundalini, Yin and AcroYoga. I can help you with personalised classes, expert advice and hands-on assistance to take your yoga practice to the next level or help you with healing advice and personalized coaching sessions to get to your best.
Hatha Vinyasa Yoga
Hatha Vinyasa Yoga is a holistic movement practice with a focus on strength, flexibility and breath work (pranayama). In a hatha flow we explore several poses (asanas) and move through them gracefully, transitioning from one pose to the next. Each class has a theme which weaves through the class as a red thread. I usually make sure that we will have some giggles along the way.
I teach a gently Hatha Yoga Flow every Sunday from 9:00 to 10:15am on Stuart Island in Nambucca Heads. This fun class is open to everyone and is donation based. Suggested donation $10. No bookings required. Please bring your own yoga mat.
Kundalini Yoga
Kundalini is a very dynamic yoga practice, which incorporates repetitive and oscillating movements in conjunction with strong breath work (pranayama) as well as sound vibration (mantra). This transformative practice leaves you highly invigorated and refreshed.
I am very passionate about the transformative power of Kundalini Yoga and am currently offering a class every Thursday from 9:30 to 10:30 am at Ishara Healing Center in Macksville. My next class will be 2nd of January 2025. Come to set your intentions for the new year, then propel into an invigorating practice followed by a gentle gong bath during deep relaxation. Classes are $20 and I am looking forward to seeing you there.
Yin Yoga
Yin Yoga is a very gentle and restorative yoga practice with no focus on strength nor fitness. In these classes we hold the poses for a longer period of time (2 to 5 min) to activate the energetic flow through the body. Yin is taught in accordance with TCM and as such with a strong focus and the meridians and seasons.
I teach a gentle grounding yin class each Tuesday and Wednesday from 5:30 to 6:45 pm in my beautiful studio in Hyland Park. For this class bookings are essential due to limited space. $20 I All mats and props are provided. To book in for yin use the contact form.
AcroYoga with Ilka
AcroYoga is a partner and team based practice, which combines elements from yoga, acrobatics and Thai massage. In this fun and playful practice we are reminded to support each other and lift each other up. AcroYoga allows you to experience very powerfully how to approach risk with ease and to expand your comfort zone with the help of others as we build trust together as a community.
