FreeFly Yoga is a boutique yoga school featuring beautiful harbour views and classes taught by premium yoga teachers from around the world. We offer ACROVINYASA, Vinyasa and Yin. Come and join us on a journey of yoga evolution and playful connection in one of Australia’s most iconic locations!
FreeFly is a term used in skydiving where a skydiver will fall to the earth in any body position other than the standard belly down. The variations in body positions create challenge, improve awareness and are a lot of fun. Although different to the standard traditional skydiving it is of course still, in essence, skydiving. Just like our classes at FreeFly Yoga we will challenge you in various different ways and postures whilst still maintaining the essence of yoga philosophy and teaching.
MEET THE TEAM
DANIEL MYERS
Daniel is more than just a Yoga teacher, he is a fearless adventurer. His passion for adrenaline is evenly balanced by the calmness of meditation and yoga. Daniel would say, “It’s not about throwing myself out of a plane without a care for life, It’s about the ability to remain calm and peaceful in the heat of every moment”. Most people feel that the action sports and yoga are polar opposites but Daniel believes they have so much in common.
As a kid Daniel was always outside climbing trees, playing sports, riding his bike or just being outside with friends. This active lifestyle and love for fitness turned into years of martial arts including tae kwon do, boxing and kick boxing. As well as a passion for physical fitness Daniel also has a passion for board sports including surfing, skateboarding, wakeboarding and snowboarding. After discovering yoga 7 years ago, Daniel realised that all these things had one thing in common – awareness. Yoga not only enhanced his physical awareness, but also the awareness of breath, consciousness and focus. Daniel believes that all success in any field comes from a state of focus and presence.
Daniel is experienced in a range of different Yoga styles including Power Vinyasa, Alignment, Yin, ACROVINYASA™, SUP Yoga (stand up paddleboard yoga), Partner Yoga and even Aerial Silk. He completed the 200hr teacher training course with Power Living in 2012 and since then has been teaching classes and workshops at studios and running retreats along the east coast of Australia, Bali and Fiji before finding his solid grounding as a teacher and general manager at YB School in Sydney.
Daniel’s yoga specialty would have to be arm balances and inversions so during Dan’s classes don’t be surprised to find yourself upside-down getting a fresh perspective on life.
