Stretch Academy's Values & Vision
At Stretch Academy we understand that teaching yoga is more than just accumulating knowledge.
It's about finding your voice.
Our trainings are filled with interactive workshops, practice in hands on teaching and adjusting, real life skills for finding work in the industry and more!
You'll learn, you'll laugh, and most importantly you'll walk out feeling confident to teach multiple styles of yoga. Our graduates are trained in vinyasa, hatha, yin, prenatal, meditation, yoga nidra, restorative yoga and myofascial release!
Our teachers walk away with the ability to offer inspiring, nurturing and progressive classes. This makes them in high demand at studios and gyms around Brisbane.
They have incredible knowledge in anatomy, biomechanics and asana, but most importantly understand how to use this to help their students grow and progress.
Our goal is to facilitate not just a course, but build a community of like-minded individuals that will continue to support and inspire each other well after the training is completed.
With classes, workshops, retreats and community classes this is more than just a training - it's a journey!

Testimonials
"I had been researching yoga teacher training courses 1 year ago and debated doing a teacher training course overseas in Thailand or Bali for a month. But, it felt risky not knowing the teacher and people, so when I found the course in my local town and being led my Miriam who teaches at my local studio, I jumped at the chance and paid my deposit.
Doing the course has meant so much to me personally. I love yoga and the practice and teachings of yoga. Being able to deepen my understanding with Miriam and PJ and the teaching team at a stunning studio has been simply amazing.
I have been learning the technical side of teaching yoga, anatomy and biomechanics which is completely outside of my comfort zone. I come from a corporate background so a yoga teaching course is a jump! I have thoroughly enjoyed stretching myself and learning.
The meditation and spiritual component and philosophical component of the course were taught at the right time for me - right when personal events could have potentially thrown me, the teachings grounded me and helped me through what was potentially a rough ride. For that I am grateful for serendipitous timing!
Thank you Miriam, PJ and Team for such a beautiful course. I know it will only continue to grow and we do need more yoga teachers in the world! - Roxy A
The 200hr Stretch Teacher training was an excellent course to learn more about yoga and prepare me in becoming a yoga teacher. I was really impressed with the amount of topics that were covered, from the history of yoga right through to the anatomy and physiology of the human body.
Everything was planned and organised really well and the information was delivered in a way that made it easy to understand. I really enjoyed getting to know the other trainees; this has been a great experience that we have all shared.
All of the teachers were approachable and prepared to answer our many questions. I'd recommend this course to anyone looking to deepen their knowledge of yoga, or anyone interested in becoming a yoga teacher. - Paul S
I consider myself very lucky for having chosen to take my Yoga Teacher Training at Stretch.
Even though I was quite eager to get into teaching, I wasn't just after a certificate that would allow me to deliver yoga classes. I was also looking forward to the self discovery and learning process that would come from my yoga teacher training experience.
And I can totally say that the Stretch Yoga Teacher Training program met and exceeded my expectations not only in that sense, but also in the sense of preparing me with the technical skills needed in order to be a teacher who can lead a meaningful and anatomically safe practice.
The course content is very thorough and interesting. I got to learn so much, but at the same time had a lot of fun whilst attending the classes and going through my workbooks at home.
I also found it amazing how we got to have an experienced movement professional to deliver the anatomy module. When talking to other friends who have recently took their teacher training elsewhere, they all agree that they felt let down when it comes to anatomy and biomechanics.
Thank you so much for this incredible experience and for setting me on the right path in my yoga learning and teaching journey. - Karina A
