Who We Are

Rooted in the heart of the Sunshine Coast, our studio is a sanctuary for people of all ages, backgrounds, and experience levels. Whether you’re brand new to yoga or returning to your practice, Ananda is a place to move, breathe, rest, and be. The name Ananda reflects what we stand for — not a fleeting high, but a deep, enduring sense of wellbeing. It’s the feeling of being truly present, connected to yourself and others, and at peace within. Founded by Laurie Sale, Ananda Yoga Nambour was born from a vision to create a space that honours both ancient tradition and modern life. After years of personal practice, study, and teaching, Laurie followed the call to create a studio where community, self-awareness, and spiritual growth could flourish — right here in Nambour. At Ananda, we believe that yoga is for every body. You don’t need to be flexible, spiritual, or experienced — just willing to show up. We can’t wait to welcome you to the mat.
