Danera (DEE) has a huge passion for sharing her yoga experience with all ages. She has been practicing yoga for many years including during pregnancy and postnatal. The mental challenge and stimulation it gives is amazing and has helped immensely through the busy and stressful times of raising young children. Dee says she is more fit and flexible doing yoga than she was with years of gym and cardio workouts. With two beautiful children Ella and Koby, Dee has also witnessed first hand the benefits of yoga for children. They want to join in and try new things and especially love the games and songs.
Dee's has competed a 200hr Yoga Alliance certified course with Samadhi Family Yoga NZ, specifically tailored for kids of all ages -babies through to adults! It is the first of its kind in a course focusing on the physical and mental development of children at different ages and stages.
Dee is also a certified Aqua Yoga teacher which combines the soothing and supportive qualities of water with the traditional benefits of land based yoga.
As such Mini Buddhas Yoga concentrates on these specialised areas as a yoga teacher on the Gold Coast with classes for Pregnancy ( Prenatal ), Mums & Bubs, easy beginner for adults and seniors (including Aqua Yoga), and toddlers and kids yoga in different age groups, including kids yoga for schools, childcare centres and outdoor yoga classes.
We also have the relevant paperwork with Blue Card, insurance and First Aid.
We are located on the beautiful Gold Coast in a central location at Currumbin & Palm Beach.
We have after school outdoor kids yoga classes at Laguna Park, Palm Beach, Gold Coast. Adults classes are held at the (air conditioned) Michele Crawshaws School Of Performing Arts @ Currumbin, Gold Coast or Palm Beach Parklands with plenty of parking.
