About Me

Hi, I’m Emma—yoga teacher, retreat host, and sacred rest advocate. With over 10 years of teaching experience and 5+ years hosting retreats, I help women—especially those over 40—find movement, stillness, and space to breathe.

I’ve been practicing yoga for 25 years (without ever mastering a headstand), and I believe the best kind of practice meets you exactly where you are. My classes and retreats are warm, welcoming, and beginner-friendly—because you don’t need to be flexible to belong.

Kind words from students & retreat guests ~~~

  • “Emma is amazing. I have just come away from a session feeling energised and that I matter - not in a big headed way but as a genuine human being kind of way. I don't usually share personal stuff but I have been feeling pretty low over the past 6 months, spiraling down to a point of no return. Found Emma by accident on Facebook and it's the best thing I've committed to. She cares and no judgement.”

  • “I attended Emma’s recent Pause Retreat. It was exactly what I needed and Emma was so skillful at guiding us through gentle movement and some delicious restorative yoga. I appreciated the nourishing food, space to rest and journal and just pause. Thank you Emma ♥️ can’t wait for the next day retreat offering"

    ~ Kat Spargo

  • "I have been wanting to join an Emma Yoga Class for ages. This year I joined the Yoga at the Albany Library. I feel so much more confident about my practice at home in between classes. I feel content that some moves I need to modify. I appreciate that there are options provided for yoga poses. 🌻"

    ~ Trish Travers

  • "What a wonderful relaxing week with Emma. Stress and planning all done for us so we could just unwind and enjoy. Emma’s style of yoga is inclusive of everyone’s level of ability and her gentle presence was encouraging and informative. Highly recommend this retreat in Bali"

    ~ Jane McCallum

Why I teach yoga and host retreats

I believe rest is sacred and movement should feel like coming home.


With over 10 years of experience teaching yoga and hosting retreats, I create calm, beginner-friendly spaces for women—especially those over 40—to pause, reconnect, and feel supported.

Whether we’re flowing gently in class or sipping mocktails on retreat, everything I offer is grounded in kindness, simplicity, and deep care.
