Sally Gower

Sally has been practicing yoga for over 25 years and teaching for 10 years. She is a certified Iyengar yoga teacher. She’s studied with numerous senior teachers and also traveled to India to learn from the source, the Iyengar family at Ramamani Iyengar yoga Institute in Pune, India.

​She started yoga when she developed a bad back working in fashion hunched over a desk designing. After commencing yoga practice, Sally discovered that not only did she get physical relief, but also a calmness and clarity that spoke to her soul. Her aim is to transfer all that she’s learnt and benefited from Iyengar yoga to the student. To also help the student release from the physical and mental stresses that come from day to day living and to find a path to a calm mind and a fit and healthy body.
Flourish Sanctuary exists primarily to serve the people of our community. To date, we have proudly not taken any government grants or corporate money and are totally independently funded. Everybody who works on the property is an unpaid volunteer apart from our cleaner, but they do get to live on this sacred land. Black Sheep Farm and Compassion Temple are operated by volunteers of Flourish Sanctuary. Our purpose is people, not profits. If you can make a donation to support our purpose then please click here.
We believe this world is for everyone regardless of spiritual beliefs, gender identity, sexual orientation, ethnicity or species. ​We acknowledge the traditional custodians of the land on which we gather, the Bundjalung people, and pay our respects to their Elders past, present, and emerging. We recognise their continuing connection to land, water, and community, and we support their ongoing efforts towards self-determination and sovereignty.
