Welcome to Surya Yoga & Meditation Centre
GLENDA GOODING is the Principal of Surya Yoga and Meditation Studio and she has been teaching Yoga, Meditation and Self Development courses for over 30 years.
Glenda is a member of Yoga Australia, a yoga association where she is recognised as a Senior Level 3 Yoga Teacher (most experienced level). She has also been running a Yoga Teaching Course for over 20 years, a course also recognised by Yoga Australia.
She has established two successful yoga centres and has also developed a wide level of experience and capability from previously teaching yoga in corporate venues, community centres and gyms. Teaching prenatal yoga and running yoga classes for those with past injuries, including back, neck and knee problems have also contributed to her experience.
The Studio runs classes in Hatha Yoga on a number of levels – Gentle, Beginners, General, Intermediate and Advanced. The lower level classes also cater to those who are pregnant. There are Introduction to Meditation Courses, ongoing Meditation classes, and occasional workshops.
Glenda is widely travelled (including Ashrams in India) and brings a wealth of knowledge and experience to the classes.
The style of teaching Glenda has developed is unique and is a slow fluid style which incorporates pranayama and mudras, and each class concludes with 10 minutes of yoga nidra or relaxation. Classes are designed to leave students with a tangible sense of wellbeing on all levels (physical, emotional, mental and spiritual).
The Studio runs classes in Hatha Yoga – Beginners, Intermediate and Advanced Classes, Meditation Courses, occasional workshops, and the 12 month registered Yoga Teaching Course.
Please contact Glenda for a current Timetable of classes, times and payments.
