"Each day, live to elevate yourself. Each day elevate one person.
Make elevation your religion and you shall reach Infinity."

Yoga with Ilka
I am a highly qualified yoga teacher with roughly 1000hrs of training. I passionately teach four different styles of yoga: Hatha Vinyasa, Kundalini, Yin and AcroYoga. I can help you with personalised classes, expert advice and hands-on assistance to take your yoga practice to the next level or help you with healing advice and personalized coaching sessions to get to your best.
Hatha Vinyasa Yoga
Hatha Vinyasa Yoga is a holistic movement practice with a focus on strength, flexibility and breath work (pranayama). In a hatha flow we explore several poses (asanas) and move through them gracefully, transitioning from one pose to the next. Each class has a theme which weaves through the class as a red thread. I usually make sure that we will have some giggles along the way.
I teach a gently Hatha Yoga Flow every Sunday from 9:00 to 10:15am on Stuart Island in Nambucca Heads. This fun outdoor class is my signature yoga class which I have been running for the last 5 years in Nambucca. It is open to everyone and is donation based. Suggested donation $10. No bookings required. Please bring your own yoga mat. I am looking forward to seeing you.

Kundalini Yoga
Kundalini is a very dynamic yoga practice, which incorporates repetitive and oscillating movements in conjunction with strong breath work (pranayama) as well as sound vibration (mantra). This transformative practice leaves you highly invigorated and refreshed.
Although I am very passionate about the transformative power of Kundalini Yoga I am currently not offering any regular classes. If you are interested in Kundalini Yoga feel free to reach out and we can arrange for a private session or discuss other options.
I can't wait to hear from you. Sat nam ♡
Yin Yoga
Yin Yoga is a very gentle and restorative yoga practice with no focus on strength nor fitness. In these classes we hold the poses for a longer period of time (2 to 5 min) to activate the energetic flow through the body. Yin is taught in accordance with TCM and as such with a strong focus and the meridians and seasons.
I teach a gentle grounding yin class each Tuesday and Wednesday from 5:30 to 6:45 pm in my beautiful studio in Hyland Park. For this class bookings are essential due to limited space. $20 I All mats and props are provided. To book in for yin use the contact form.

AcroYoga
AcroYoga combines elements from yoga, acrobatics and the healing arts. It is a partner and community based practice where two or more people work together to create movements and sequences that involve subtle balances, weights shifts and strengths elements as well as clear non-violent communication and building trust. AcroYoga typically involves a base, a flyer and a spotter. In this constellation we learn to mutually support each other. AcroYoga is a great practice to build community and trust. It enhances teamwork and communication skills aside from building strength, flexibility and balance.
I am teaching a one week AcroYoga Immersion as part of the next CampCreative in Bellingen in January 2026. I am looking forward to flying with you. For private sessions please reach out via the contact form.
