“I have been training with Ian for only seven months but I have seen significant improvements in my strength and flexibility. Even in group training, he is able to customize the workout to fit my needs and abilities. I highly recommend Ian as a personal trainer.” - Neang, Para Triathlete
"I trained with Ian for over 3 years on a weekly basis at the YMCA. Unlike a lot of personal trainers he has an ability to assess structural imbalance in the body (weak core, right vs left imbalance etc) and design a program that addresses those issues, which overall led to an ability to continue exercising injury free and gain strength and functional mobility specific to my sports. Ian kept things interesting and varied and pushed me beyond where I could go on my own. I can highly recommend him for keeping you fit, well and strong!" - Alan Johnson
“I’ve been training with Ian for 6 years. The coaching system that we have in place is a good combination of group and one on one training. It allows for attention to individual needs and weaknesses, which is always good but so is the group setting. It spices up the experience and helps motivate one to stay in shape. Among the things training has helped me with is a measurable improvement on my shoulder limitations.” – Norm, Triathlete
"It's a good thing to turn your mind upside down now and then, like an hour-glass, to let the particles run the other way." ~ Christopher Morley
Flip your world upside down in a fun, exciting and methodical way in this course called “Inversion Immersion with Props”. Just as yoga gently encourages you to move away from any unconscious habitual patterns, the invitation to invert is simply another way to shake things up, step out of a rut.
Taking our yoga poses to our hands can be very intimidating. But, it can also be a lot of fun, super exhilarating and even addictive. Turning our world upside down is also challenging by the simple fact that we spend the majority of our life right-side up. This course is designed to give you the tools you need to gain confidence, build strength and approach these inversions in a safe and effective manner. Learn warm-up practices that you can use to support your inversion practice, deepen your awareness of optimal alignment for these poses, learn how to use props to support your effort on holding the poses longer.
An inversion is most generally categorized as any asana in which the head is below the heart. There are gentler variations that may be more accessible for students early on in their inversion relationship: Downward Dog, Standing Forward Folds, Legs Up the Wall and Happy Baby are lovely ways in which to get things moving in new directions without jumping into the deep end. Yoga inversions relax the mind and awaken to what is unfolding in the present moment. This course features the foundational inversions:-Headstand-Forearm stand-Handstand-Scorpion pose-Chin stand-Shoulderstand
Like all things in life, the suggestion to get upside-down should not be universally prescribed. There are certain contraindications that should be observed so as not to cause or exacerbate previous injuries or illnesses: high blood pressure, some heart conditions, neck injuries, recent stroke, detached retina, glaucoma and epilepsy are common issues that should be addressed before inverting. Talk with your doctor if you are unsure about your status.
Inversions give the practitioner a sense of peace and quiet in the mind. They require a level of focus, strength and balance like no other poses. Inversions help to detoxify the body of impurities while building core strength and muscle firmness. The benefits of regularly inverting your body range from aiding digestion to alleviating stress to improving mental clarity to improving blood circulation to the brain and eyes. A strong inversion practice also helps with boosting your immunity and preventing illness. And before you “get it,” those many attempts remind you of how much more you have to learn, and how truly it is about the journey, not simply the destination. So humbling! Inversions reintroduce you to your inner child and remind you that though yoga is a contemplative endeavor in many ways, the asana practice is also a time to be playful and lighthearted!

The word “Reiki” means “mysterious atmosphere, miraculous sign.” It comes from the Japanese words “rei,” meaning universal, and “ki,” meaning life energy.
Reiki is a type of energy healing. It is where energy can stagnate in the body where there has been physical injury or even emotional pain. In time, these energy blocks can cause illness. Energy medicine aims to help the flow of energy and remove blocks in a similar way to acupuncture or acupressure. Reiki improves the flow of energy around the body can enable relaxation, relieve pain, speed healing, and reduce other symptoms of illness.
My Sound Healing was learned in Native Aboriginal Lands of Australia Sound has an ancient kinship with meditation and healing. Sound healing has ancient roots in cultures all over the world, including Australian aboriginal tribes who used the didgeridoo as a sound healing instrument for over 40,000 years to ancient such as Tibetan or Himalayan singing bowl spiritual ceremonies. Sound meditation is a form of focused awareness type of meditation. One kind that has become more popular is called “sound baths,” which uses Tibetan singing bowls, quartz bowls, and bells to guide the listener. These practices highlight themes of how the experience of sound manifests not only through hearing but through tactile physical vibrations and frequencies.
Crystal Healing is amazing when used in addition to Reiki and Sound Healing..It is the placements of different Crystals on each chakra point on the body during the Reiki and Sound Healing. For each chakra there is a different crystal/stone that clears, energises, unblocks, calms and heals. it is truly amazing what the 3 therapies can do together!
