It's difficult to put into words how magical this place really is. From your first visit you feel welcome and safe in the beautiful yurt. Mandy and Robert are such warm and welcoming people and their extensive knowledge of yoga has helped me no end. I recently attended the one day silent retreat, it was a beautiful day of healing. The yoga session in the morning was enjoyable, I loved the meditation by the creek and the food was delicious! I thoroughly recommend Kookaburra yoga for anyone trying to heal or find themselves you are in the very best hands. It is definitely my favourite place to chill!

My first time to Kookaburra creek yoga for the Sound Silence Stillness yoga and meditation retreat. It was amazing! I've done yoga for a long time but have never been taught meditation before, and wanted to start learning and this day was perfect. The sound healing session was amazing, and the day also includes a lovely morning tea and lunch, in beautiful tranquil surroundings. I can't wait to go back!

The yoga meditation weekend was supreme. Mandy and Robert have so much knowledge and understanding of yogic philosophy and they are so willing to share with kindness, understanding and completely without judgement. The entire staff and other participants were so lovely and fun, the bush setting and facilities 5 star, and the food was out of this world. I could live there and be happy forever I feel sure. I am so grateful to have had this opportunity.

our founders & directors
Robert Becker & Mandy BeckerKnox
From a young age, on different continents, we discovered yoga and then sought out the great masters of traditional yoga in the ashrams of India. Over the years we immersed ourselves in the powerful, transformative practices and methods of various yoga traditions with the guidance and blessings of our teachers and gurus. It became our path and dharma to find each other, to share this lifetime, raise our family, and bring together our experience, knowledge and commitment to share the beauty, power and grace of traditional yoga. It was with this intent we created Kookaburra Yoga. It is our sincere wish that you enjoy your experience of yoga at Kookaburra Creek, and come to appreciate the history and tradition which underlies our courses and program. Please take a look at our new calendar of classes, courses for beginners and retreats here in Western Australia and also in Bali and India. We look forward to seeing you soon.

our inspiration...
Kookaburra Yoga was founded as a sacred space for sharing and practicing traditional yoga in a peaceful environment connected to nature. We teach in the spirit of our teachers and mentors before us. In the words of the great yogi Swami Sivananda "to serve, to love, to give, to purify, to meditate, to realise."
“Salutations to that reality in which all the elements, and all the animate and inanimate beings shine as if they have an independent existence, and in which they exist for a time and into which they merge."
Sri Swami Venkatesananda
serve, love, give, purify, meditate, realise
stay connected...
acknowledgement of country
We recognise the continuous and deep connection to Country, of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Peoples as the first peoples of this nation. In this way we respectfully acknowledge the Noongar People of this land, waters, sea and sky. We pay tribute to the Elders past and present and respect the collective ancestry that has brought us all here today. It is a privilege to be teaching on Country and we hope that our work here in some way supports true custodianship of this land.
