They have so much passion, care and love for this practice and will support anyone in their journey, no matter where they are at in life
So incredibly grateful to have found this place! Through my Teacher Training I have been given access to some incredibly knowledgeable teachers! The tools and materials they provide, as well as their unique mentoring, have helped me explore deeper into yoga than I could have ever imagined. Thank you so much for honouring the yogi ways always and giving people such a special opportunity to explore yoga themselves.

As a mum to 2 little ones I needed flexibility & support, and I got that and more
I moved back to Perth a few years ago & decided to do my Yoga Teacher Training & I'm so glad I chose Yoga Space to support me on this journey! I have loved every minute of my time with them. As a mum to 2 little ones I needed flexibility & support and I got that & more with online membership for classes as well as coming in to Saturday vinyasa with Jean and chai after with my fellow yogis. I love the people I have met through YS and the very accessible and varied classes that are on offer!
