Grounded Motion

Grounded Motion Hi I'm Morgan, let me introduce myself. I have been practicing yoga for almost 15 years and in 2022 I finally took the leap to become a qualified yoga teacher.

🧘🏼‍♀️Empowering Women to build strength, mobility and balance through community, connection & the power of movement I am a mum to two beautiful boys, a Registered Nurse specialising in Oncology and a yoga teacher who is passionate about women’s health and movement. My partner and I packed up the car, loaded our 10 month old baby boy and headed off for an amazing adventure that was my 6 week immersive yoga teacher training at Krishna Village in the Northern Rivers region of NSW. I have since had another beautiful boy and started Grounded Motion. I started Grounded Motion because I believe that with the right input our bodies, minds and spirits can thrive. I provide a space that allows you to arrive as you are in the moment, in whichever season of life you are in and promote thoughtful and reflective yoga to grow physical and mental well-being. My aim is to enrich lives through community, connection and the power of movement. I love bringing movement, mindfulness and grounding to women to help support them in whichever life season they are in. I hope to see you on the mat soon! Morgan. x

More than Yoga. More than Movement

Sunrise yoga is on again tomorrow morning, 6am at Henry Rolland Park.

We’ll be moving through a grounded practice as the sun comes up, working into some juicy hip openers, glute, hamstring and quad strengthening, and giving the body time to wake up properly.

It’s a really lovely way to start the day, moving outdoors, breathing fresh air, and sharing space with a good group of humans.

There are only two sessions left in this little sunrise series, tomorrow morning and next Wednesday, so if you’ve been thinking about coming along, this is your little nudge.

You can book through the link online or just bring some cash along.

I jumped on the “ask ChatGPT to create an image using everything it knows about you” trend…

The first image is probably the most accurate, a mix of movement, barefoot life, balance, bike packing, mum, nature lover, all rolled into one.

It left Tim out of the picture, so I asked it to include him… which it did, but rather than being integrated into the scene he ended up as this random background character just stuck on. Very collage vibes 😅

What I found really interesting is how it shows a lot of the idealised parts of my life. It captures so much of who I am, but also leaves so much out. There’s no everyday grind in there. No hard parts. Just the pieces that bring me joy.

Definitely not an accurate reflection of day-to-day life, but a really interesting reflection of the things I love… It would just be nice if it recognised that Tim is also important. Maybe he’s less tied to my identity in this space, and that’s why it didn’t think to include him.

The Blue Belt flow you see here represents a lot more than just a sequence. It holds months of coming back to practice, refining movement, learning where my body felt strong, and where it needed more patience and attention.

Discovering has deeply influenced the direction of my movement practice and teaching. Their approach to feet, balance, and mobility through play, curiosity, and accessibility aligns so strongly with how I believe movement should feel, functional, adaptable, and grounded in real life.

The foundations of my Balance and Play classes grew from this work. While I integrate many different movement influences, the core philosophy behind those classes is rooted in what I’ve learned through The Foot Collective.

Training for the Blue Belt flow wasn’t just about passing a test. It meant showing up consistently with intention, working through sticking points, and learning more about my own movement patterns along the way. Some elements felt natural, others challenged me in ways I didn’t expect, and that process was just as valuable as the outcome.

I felt proud, and honestly relieved, when it was signed off. Not because I didn’t believe I could do it, but because getting it clean and smooth enough alongside everything else life holds is a big win.

Becoming a certified guide doesn’t suddenly change what I offer, but it reflects the learning that already shapes how I support people in exploring balance, movement, and connection to their bodies in a playful and meaningful way.

Celebrating this one.

Today’s workshop at was loads of fun!

Lots of exploring movement from a place of curiosity, and plenty of learning simply through paying attention to what our bodies were doing. We talked, moved, wobbled, experimented, and got curious about balance, strength, and what happens when we stop trying to “get it right” and just explore instead.

Such a lovely group, and such a great space to share movement together.

One week to go until Balance & Play in Moruya!

If you’ve been thinking about coming along, now’s the time to book yourself in and commit.

Balance & Play is a 2.5 hour workshop focused on balance, strength, coordination and movement, explored through curiosity and play rather than drills or pressure. You don’t need to be strong, bendy or coordinated already. You just need a body and a willingness to move.

These workshops consistently receive really positive feedback, and I’m genuinely excited to share this one with you.

If you’ve got questions or you’re unsure whether it’s right for you, please reach out. Otherwise, book yourself in and I’ll see you at !

The moment I saw this trend I wanted to do it… it’s just taken me a while to find the hard drive that all the 2016 photos were on.

2016… a year filled with lots but not many photos of me.

1. It was the year I got in to stand up paddle boarding, and we tried to teach the dogs to sit on the boards with us… not going to lie we weren’t very successful, they would just jump off and go for a swim then capsize us trying to get back up.
2,3,4. Renovations - 2016 was the year I tore out the horrible 1960s kitchen and put in a new one… however we discovered holes in the floor under where the old kitchen had been. So all the floors came up and we relaid new floorboards, then installed the kitchen. I wanted floating timber shelves so we worked out how to make that happen and then I tiled the kitchen splash back.
5. Lots of time spent exploring nature, connecting and visiting places I’d never seen before.
6. I could have done a whole 2016 flash back with photos of my dogs, but this is a photo of Bailey. He was my first dog, I picked him out from the pound. I fed him, I walked him. All my teenage ups and downs, all the tears were shared with him.
7. Rocky - I believe in sole mates, but not necessarily in you having one and that’s it. Some stay in our lives for a short time, some stay for a long time, but there is always a lesson to be learned, experiences to be shared, growth as a person to be done. Rocky was that for me, in the short time we shared together I learnt soo much, grew so much as a person and had to face challenges I had never had to deal with before. I still miss him, and often wish that my boys could have met him, he was an incredibly special soul.
8. Gruffalo, I got him as a puppy shortly after Rocky had been diagnosed with an aggressive and rare form of cancer, we still get to share our every day with him.
9. Yoga! I’ve been doing it a long time, and have just swapped sharing my mat with dogs to sharing it with kids!
10, 11. More DIY’s, I feel like I have been renovating, building DIY’ing for a LONG time.
12. I think this speaks for itself.

It’s funny to look back 10 years and see soo much has changed yet so much is the same.

There’s just one week until weekly classes start back up, have you reserved your spot?

You can join me on Monday nights in Wamboin, Wednesday days in Aranda, and Thursday nights in Aranda.

If you’ve been thinking about getting back into a regular movement practice, now’s the time to lock it in. These classes offer a steady, supportive space for movement, strength and rest, something you can settle into week to week.

Looking forward to moving together again soon.

Sunday was race day.
Tim and I crossed the finish line of the Kowen Trail New Year’s Resolution Run after running 12km together.

This is the furthest I’ve run since before having Mckinley. I may have briefly touched this distance in early pregnancy, but regardless, it’s been years.
It felt like a big deal.

I listened closely to my body throughout the run. Around the 7km mark my left knee made it very clear that downhill running wasn’t on the cards, so we adjusted. We walked the downhills, ran the flats and climbed happily uphill. No pushing through, no proving anything, just working with what was there on the day.

One of the biggest highlights was running together. At one point we even chose to walk just so we could have an uninterrupted, kid-free chat. Supporting each other, checking in, slowing down when needed, picking it back up when it felt right, and crossing the finish line side by side.

We’ve already talked about making a weekly “date run” a thing, just us, moving and talking and catching up. I’ve also floated the idea of the Half Marathon for the June Winter Trails run!

I’ve got more reflections to share soon about what this run taught me about my body, but for now I’m feeling proud, grateful and quietly sore.
