Reconnect To Your True Self
Not becoming someone new — remembering who you truly are... Sat Nam
Meet your Guides
As co-founders and twin sisters, our intention is to create a retreat that feels warm, welcoming, and beginner-friendly. We believe yoga should be accessible to everyone — not intimidating or exclusive. Our goal is to build a supportive community where people can slow down, connect, and grow gently, without pressure or expectation.
A shared path of yoga, healing, and exploration brought us here — to hold space for others to reconnect with themselves.
Sat Nam Yoga Retreats was created by us, Australian twin sisters Tiffany and Melissa, from a deep desire to offer something more than just a yoga class.
In our 20s, we both moved through anxiety, emotional overwhelm, panic attacks, stress, relationship changes, and that deep feeling of feeling lost in ourselves.
For a long time, we asked ourselves, is this really how life is meant to feel? There had to be another way to live — with more peace, meaning, connection, and joy.
When we turned 30 we took a break from teaching yoga because we felt called to travel, explore, and go deeper into the heart of the practice — not just teaching yoga, but truly living it.
Travelling over the past three years has opened us up to so many important life lessons and experiences that helped us deepen our yoga practice beyond the mat.
To us, the real practice is learning to become more present, connected, and conscious in the way you show up and experience life — with kindness, emotional awareness, and a deeper understanding of your mind.
These practices have guided us through our own journey, and now we feel called to share them with you.
We are continually learning, studying, and exploring new ways to teach and support others.
Our intention is to create beautiful, soulful retreat spaces around the world, in the places we feel deeply called to, and to share simple daily practices that have helped us — so they can support you in a real and meaningful way too.
Sat Nam Yoga Retreats was created for beginners because we know how intimidating yoga, mindfulness, and healing spaces can feel when you are just starting out.
You don’t need to be flexible.
You don’t need to know what you are doing.
You don’t need to have it all together.
You can come exactly as you are.
Our retreats are gentle, soulful spaces to rest, breathe, reconnect, release, and remember yourself again.
Our hope is that you leave with simple practices you can take home, so you can move through life with more peace, self-love, clarity, and joy
Tiffany —
Co-Founder & Yoga Teacher
My journey into yoga began from a young age, at 19 I bulged a disc and was later diagnosed with spondylolisthesis. What began as a way to manage physical pain slowly became something much deeper.
Through Yin Yoga and mindful movement, I experienced not just physical healing, but a reconnection to my body. Over time, it became the practice that keeps me pain-free and supported today.
Alongside that, I’ve moved through anxiety and seasons of feeling stuck in fight-or-flight mode. Yoga and mindfulness didn’t “fix” me — they gently taught me how to regulate my nervous system, soften, and feel safe in my body again.
That lived experience shapes the way I teach.
Life isn’t perfect. We all have emotional days and seasons of struggle — and I understand that personally.
The way I teach is grounding, simple and supportive — especially for beginners.
It’s not about perfect poses. It’s about helping you feel safe, steady and at home within yourself.
Because when we feel safe inside, everything begins to shift. 🤍
Melissa —
Co-Founder & Yoga Teacher
My journey into yoga and mindfulness began during a time when I felt overwhelmed by negative thoughts and disconnected from myself. Learning to gently observe my mind without judgment became the beginning of healing and creating a safe space within.
Inspired by teachers like Eckhart Tolle and Michael A. Singer I discovered that yoga and meditation are simple, loving practices we can return to each day. None of us are perfect — we are all growing and learning. These practices help us become kinder to ourselves and others, and guide us back to our authentic, peaceful nature.
As Co-Founder and Yoga Instructor of Sat Nam Retreats, I hold gentle spaces where you can reconnect to that calm, loving presence within.
Jo — Mindset Coach
Jo is a certified mindset coach and emotional release breathwork facilitator.
Her work centres on helping people become more aware of the thoughts and beliefs that shape how they see themselves — particularly during seasons of change, uncertainty, or personal growth.
Rather than pushing for dramatic transformation, Jo creates calm, grounded spaces where you can reflect gently, release what no longer feels aligned, and move forward with clarity — not pressure.
By blending thoughtful mindset coaching with guided breathwork, she supports a deeper sense of awareness, self-trust and emotional steadiness.
During the retreat, Jo will guide three small-group mindset coaching sessions, along with optional paired breathwork experiences — all designed to feel safe, supportive and beginner-friendly.
Her intention is simple: to hold space without judgment, so you can explore at your own pace and feel fully supported in the process. 🤍
