About your hosts

Celia Brisa

Yoga has always been my home. Since being taken to class by ​my Mum at 16, I have always gone to my mat for feeling both ​anchored and expanded, for calming my mind and feeling more ​self love. At 16 yoga helped me feel the bigger, more infinite ​version of me not just the shy and stressed school girl. And this ​still stands true.


I first trained in Japanese yoga in Australia in 1995 and then ​found my love of Kundalini yoga at an ashram in Rishikesh India ​in 2006. After completing my kundalini yoga teacher training in ​New York, I returned to Australia to study a degree in ​Acupuncture and Chinese Medicine while teaching yoga with ​Michele in our Sydney yoga studio.


Teaching yoga, working as a practitioner and being a mother to ​my two children has kept me committed to my purpose of living ​a conscious life from the heart with a childlike sense of wonder .


I love travelling and living surrounded by nature, to be in the ​appreciation and awe of something bigger and more elevated ​than our busy, anxious minds. We humans have all the wisdom ​of nature in us but we so often need reminding .


My prayer is that in every class, every workshop or retreat that ​I guide others to feel their innate connection to joy, to the ​empowerment of being present and to the magnitude of their ​infinite self.

Michele Finato



Two decades ago, Kundalini yoga and meditation had a profound effect on my physical, mental and emotional body, inspiring me to become a certified kundalini yoga, yin yoga, and mindfulness meditation teacher, as well as a health coach and nutritionist.


My deep passion is to empower women to live their most authentic life, achieve vibrant health and thrive. Emphasizing, nourishing food, strength-building movement, self love and mindful living. Truly living, not just existing.


With roots in Australia and Italy I've spent the last 13 years in southern France, teaching and sharing my journey. My deep connection to Italy's culture and cuisine, combined with a passion for travel and exploration, inspired me to create transformative retreats that blend wellness, culture, and connection.
