Awesome classes and awesome teachers 💓 monica smith2024-11-22Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Yoga Bingo! wow what an experience, after 9 months out of the studio it feels like home again... Such a beautiful space to practice in, Allison has a wealth of knowledge that is applied and supported with the students on a Saturday morning. I cant wait to join you again x Laura Carcary2024-11-21Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Live and Breathe Yoga studio is a very friendly place to go for yoga practice. Allison is always supportive and encouraging. I really appreciate the individual feedback I can get in the Mysore classes to keep improving my yoga practice. Thank you. :) gianluca acampora2024-10-10Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Better late that never. It was the beginning of december 2023 when i was going trough a very difficult period. I still remember the first day i got in Allison’s studio and when she saw me (and probably she already understood everything) she made me do a breathing exercise against the wall with the legs up for 5 minutes and i remember having a good sensation. The day I started her courses and the meditation one (with another lady) my life changed. Never done before yoga and meditation (I was actually the kind of person saying: i don’t need this stuff). I would love to teleport myself in Townsville just to listen to Allison’s voice, it was peaceful and relaxing during the lessons. I’m the italian guy, and I hope that soon i can talk about this experience that made me come back to life again in my book. Grazie JPJ Chandler2024-07-12Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. The moment you choose to step inside the studio, you are welcomed and supported by the highly-qualified teachers and like-minded students at Live and Breath Yoga. There are a range of classes offered for all different levels and within each you will be guided on adjustments to ensure your practice is safe and meaningful. Live and Breathe Yoga creates a community that encourages curiosity for the Ashtanga yoga practice. Highly regarded and recommended! Lesley Alford2023-11-27Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Live and Breathe Yoga will energise and balance your body and mind in a professional, peaceful and welcoming space. Thanks to a great team of teachers. Lucy Mullins2023-11-24Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Arguably the best yoga studio in Townsville and probably all of QLD! I knew that this was the yoga studio for me once I'd read Allison's blogs. I felt a sense of connection and community with the yoga studio before I'd even begun my first class. Coffee every Saturday makes it more than just a yoga studio but a place where you below and connect with like-minded people. Definitely recommend! Bent Family2023-11-15Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. We are so fortunate to have a world-class Yoga studio right here in Townsville.

Whether you are a beginner, an experienced yogi, or somewhere in between, there’s a place for you at LBY! Carrie Smith2023-11-12Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Step into the Live and Breathe Yoga studio, and you'll find more than just a space for yoga; it's a sanctuary that embodies the essence of a supportive community. From the moment you walk through the doors, the atmosphere exudes warmth and positive energy. The Ashtanga yoga tradition is expertly embraced at Live and Breathe, thanks to the knowledgeable and supportive teachers who guide with precision and care.

Pauline thomas2023-11-10Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I met the Live and Breathe Yoga family just this year in my recovery from breast cancer. Allison and our team of coaches are amazing. They are gifted and super experienced and also kind and inclusive. I have not done this before and my inexperience and clumsiness is welcomed. They truly shower you in love and light and provide brilliant expertise and unwavering support to believe in your ability. The biggest bonus for me is being part of a true community of non-judgemental women and men while I get to fulfil my dream of practising yoga for the first time in my life, building strength and wellness for life, getting complete relief from physical and spiritual pain and knowing that there are no limits to the feeling of peace and centredness you gain from Yoga. All this amongst friends while having a giggle. You need to join us!
