who am i?

Hi, I’m Lola.

I’m a Mornington Peninsula-based Australian qualified Physiotherapist with over 12 years industry experience, who also holds a Bachelor of Arts, as well as being certified in Yoga, Pilates and the Bradcliff Breathing Method. I am also an advanced freediver and PADI Mermaid Instructor. I’ve worked in small business and community management. It’s a great combination that gives me a unique set of skills.

I know how to make health and wellbeing accessible to a wide range of audiences.

I understand the complexities of healthcare - I’ve worked as a physio with patients across a range of clinical settings. I teach regular yoga and pilates sessions and regularly facilitate wellbeing workshops in a range of settings from studio collaborations, private small groups and corporate wellness sessions/retreats. My practice is underpinned by science and informed by the art of caring for humans. I work in an holistic manner that respects the important body-mind connections and blends the best of what eastern and western healthcare practices have to offer.

I am passionate about delivering quality workshops and retreats.

I also have a deep love for the ocean. Freediving is one of my big passions, because it blends breath work, mindfulness, wellbeing and adventure so seamlessly. For me it is the antidote to a world that can be too serious and heavy at times.

You can read more about my workshops and services via the main menu, or get in touch with me directly to explore how we might work together.

My Approach

I love to work collaboratively, and believe that there are many ways to cook an egg! I will meet with you to talk thoroughly about your needs and desired outcomes, and together we can plan, design and create your perfect workshop or written content piece!

I am detail-oriented. I care about my work and about your needs, and always work according to my values - honesty, integrity, accountability, care for humans and the environment, and doing good in all aspects of life.

As an instructor/facilitator I believe that a participant’s role is to learn, not to know all the answers. I believe that creating safe, supportive and fun environments are essential in any type of event or workshop space.

If you’d like to find out more about how I work, and if I can help you - we should chat! Get in touch via the contact page to organise a time for a meeting (virtual or in-person) to discuss my services and how we might work together.
