Silke Whittaker has been practicing yoga for around 20 years and guiding sessions for the past nine. She is a certified yoga teacher in both Hatha and Yin, has trained with two sound healing teachers, is a Reiki Master, and continues to deepen her knowledge of aromatherapy through study with two mentors. Her passion lies in supporting self-healing through these diverse yet complementary pathways.
Silke’s greatest love is combining Yin Yoga and Sound Healing, as well as integrating slow blends of Hatha and Yin with sound therapy during and after practice. She believes that a slow, gentle, and conscious practice—with an inward focus—can help individuals reconnect with their bodies, access their inner wisdom, find calm amid the chaos, reduce stress, and support physical and energetic restoration.
Grateful for the many benefits she’s experienced through her personal practice and through guiding others, Silke now offers regular and one-off yoga classes, as well as retreats in Hawke’s Bay. She also holds space for 1:1 sessions in Reiki, Sound Healing, and Aromatherapy from her clinic in Hastings.
