Guest Teachers
Gabrielle Harris
Author and Yoga Teacher
Gabrielle is an influential teacher of yoga philosophy and wisdom. She is known for her ability to inspire teachers and students via the ancient teaching of yoga philosophy.
Before teaching yoga, Gabrielle worked as a teacher trainer in the field of TESOL (Teaching English to Speakers of Other Languages). It is here she fine-tuned her skills in the English language, teaching and producing lessons that were both informative and inspiring.
Gabrielle’s double degree in Psychology and Education continues to shape her approach to teaching yoga as a tool for understanding the mind-body connection.
Her love for yin yoga prompted her to write ‘The Language of Yin’. The book was a finalist in the Ashton Wylie Awards for Mind Body Spirit writing and is a best seller in the yoga genre. The Inspired Yoga Teacher, her second best-selling book, is the yang version of her yin.
She describes herself as a yoga magpie with over 1000 hours of training in various traditions.
Gabrielle spends hours walking and thinking about life and yoga and turns those walks into words.
