Gentle yoga for every body and all ages in Eltham and surrounds

Yoga for mind, body and serenity

Yoga, for me, isn’t just a practice — it’s a way of life. It’s a space where we can pause, breathe, stretch and soften into who we truly are. Whether you’re joining me for the first time or returning to your mat, you’ll find a class that welcomes your body, your energy, and your needs — just as they are.

I teach a range of yoga styles including Vinyasa Flow, Slow Flow, Hatha, Yin, and Sculpt, along with classes for kids, Teens, and groups. All of my classes are grounded in mindfulness and guided by intention — blending movement, breath, and rest in a way that feels supportive, not stressful.

I offer yoga classes in Eltham and surrounding suburbs at beautiful local studios, outdoor locations, and in private 1:1 sessions. You don’t need to be flexible or experienced to begin. You just need to show up as you are.

  • My Serenity Yoga is a lovely haven for my 10 yr old. She has dealt with some anxiety issues and also some physical rehab issues following foot and arm fractures. What Esther offers is a personalised experience where safety is valued, and the one-on-one approach really works. Recommended for any Tween who wants to become a little more connected with their body, and how to harness the brain-body connection.

  • We have worked with Esther over the years and always found her to be professional and compassionate. Esther has a deep sense of care for clients, and her warmth is evident throughout her sessions. We can’t speak highly enough of Esther and what is offered through My Serenity Yoga.

  • Amazing instructor! Esther’s sessions are always incredibly relaxing – and strenuous - such a great combination. Esther always ensures all levels are catered for. I always recommend Esther whenever I get the opportunity!!! You won’t be disappointed, and I have never come across anyone that has been.

  • Esther introduced me to Yoga almost 2 years ago and have not looked back since. Yoga has been an important part of my life now. She does not just instructs well but creates an incredible space to be one with yourself. Thanks Esther!

  • Esther’s classes are always very warm and welcoming. The classes are well suited to any level of practice as she helps to adjust movement around injuries, pregnancy and pain, which ensures a safe space for those with limitations. The gentle nature of her practice and the fun atmosphere accompanied by her great taste in modern music makes for a joyful experience I look forward to every week.
