With each box I pack I can feel the weight of responsibility lifting off my shoulders. There’s a lot of grief here, but there’s also relief that I know will come once it’s all done.

I’m nearly done with the packing, but I’m gonna need some help with the cleaning. Cleaning walls, cleaning windows, preparing for patching and painting and returning it to its original state.

I’ve made a few times next week and invite you to drop in even if it’s just for half an hour. If you’re unable to clean then just come as a cheerleader. Come and bring coffees, come and offer your thanks to the space for what it has given you. Come just to hang out. I would love your company.

Monday 12-2, Tuesday 3-5, Wed 10-12. Drop be a line or comment and let me know when you might like to join us! Bring gloves & a sexy bandana, your favourite cleaning accessories, your best playlist and snacks to share!

‘Let go’, the universe said…. ‘no Kate, let go MORE’….

Despite what I believed were positive negotiations, after 10 years the renewal of the lease for Zen Space has been declined. After a year of soul searching and exploring many options for this sacred space to continue, a group of amazing women stepped in to form a circle of custodians, excited and ready to bring energy and make this beautiful space flourish once again. Ready to share the responsibility and rent, (which has increased 40% over the last two years).

We are unable to use the space to teach now, being uninsured. We are deeply sorry for everyone down the line who this will affect. Teachers, facilitators, patrons and everyone else that this decision impacts. I did everything humanly possible to try for a different outcome but despite being beautifully supported by the collective, in the end it was out of our hands. We are shocked and saddened.

Yet there is a glimmer of hope. The custodians who stepped up and said yes to being a new shared owner of Zen Space are still holding a tiny seed of hope in their hearts to find a new space for a new beginning (do let us know if you know of one!). But for now, we are packing down and moving out and we will take a moment to rest, slumber and dream of new possibilities.

Please get in touch with your teacher to find out where their classes have landed in some of the beautiful venues around the valley. Let’s hold each other gently in this time. We are grateful for your all and thankful for the part you played in Chapter 1 of Zen Space.

In 2016, Zen Space was born. Camille established Sattva Yoga Centre a few years before, I became partners with her and then a few years on she sold to me. I changed the name and expanded the offerings to become Zen Space!

At the time I’d just released my first album and wasn’t sure how far it would go, after being a professional musician for many years, this was my first steps into being a solo original artists. I remember thinking ‘I wonder which one will take off’.

Ten years on and the music has been all consuming and poor Zen Space has just been getting the bare minimum from me to tick it along. Despite my lack of dedication (ok maybe a bit of stubbornness to hold on for this long!) the studio has built beautiful community and such a great vibe. My vision was never to have the full yoga timetable but rather to have a community space where people could gather and offer their hearts work.

Thanks to the managerial support from Wendy Reid, the yoga timetable has thrived, the admin has ticked along, the studio is well patroned for weekend events and workshops and I’ve continued to host events when I can, either my own music events or touring artists.

All this is to say, it’s been 10 years, and what a journey! Last year I realised I didn’t have capacity to continue, so put the studio on the market. I met some lovely people but nothing quite aligned, then I had an idea - this place is a community centre, it needs to run as a collective.

So I called it in and I’m so grateful and honoured to be surrounded by the most intelligent, heartfelt, intuitive, wise and grounded women who have felt the call and stepped in to form the new circle of custodians.

I will continue to offer a couple of yoga classes, run the HeartSong choir, the new regular open mic & jam events (excited for this!), and host touring musicians.

And so begins the next chapter of Zen Space - the Zen Space Collective! The inner circle has formed but there is also a community of elders and advisors, volunteers and support folk and patrons. There is a place for everyone here. I couldn’t be happier!

I’m deeply honoured to introduce myself as one of the new custodians of Zen Space, a place that feels like a home away from home. If you’ve ever stepped inside, you already know there is something sacred here.

I am a Personal Trainer, Yoga and Pilates instructor, and a lifelong advocate for the transformative power of movement.

I’m also a believer in the strength of community—the kind that shows up, stays consistent, and grows together.

For over 24 years, I’ve been guiding people through the art of physical empowerment, blending the precision of Pilates with the mindfulness of Yoga and the grit of Strength Training. My mission is to provide a reliable, positive, and expert space where you can build a body that serves your life.

To bridge the gap between deep inner calm and outward physical strength.

To create a sanctuary where movement is both a challenge and a celebration.

To hold a space for strong bodies and quiet minds.

I am excited to be introducing Mat Pilates to Zen Space, alongside my bi-weekly Fit & Strong small group Personal Training sessions. These sessions are designed to anchor you in your functional power and help you navigate life with vitality and confidence.

I’m so grateful to be stepping into custodianship for 2026, honouring the peace that already exists, and gently guiding this space into its next chapter of strength and movement.

Thank you for walking this path with me as we enjoy all that 2026 has to offer.

My name is Krystal, and I’m deeply honoured to introduce myself as one of the custodians of the newly formed Zen Space Collective.

I’m a Visionary Book Mentor, publisher, and transformational guide for coaches, healers, and changemakers who feel the call to share their story, wisdom, and lived experience through the written word. For over three decades, my work has woven together leadership, embodiment, storytelling, nervous system awareness, and spiritual insight, supporting people to express who they truly are and speak from their voice with clarity and integrity.

With a background in theatre directing, coaching, NLP, and ta**ra, at Zen Space, I’ll be offering monthly embodied writing workshops to release what no longer belongs, remember what has always been within, and become more fully who we are beneath the layers. These gatherings are less about “writing it right” and more about listening deeply, allowing the body and heart to lead, and letting truth find its way onto the page.

A few times a year, I’ll also be hosting Conscious Connection events: soulful, heart-led experiences designed to bring people together to practise deep listening, explore boundaries, and experience platonic touch (yes, this includes lots of hugs).

My mission has always been to create spaces where people feel safe enough to be real, brave enough to be seen, and supported enough to express what truly matters. My vision for Zen Space is for it to continue growing as a Holistic Wellness Sanctuary, a place to be nourished, grounded, inspired, and reconnected to ourselves and each other.

Zen Space already holds a quiet magic. If you’ve been here before, you’ll know it. If you haven’t yet, I’d love you to come along to a class, event, or workshop and feel it for yourself. I’m so grateful to be part of this next chapter and can’t wait to create and connect with you.

With love and gratitude 💜

Greeting beautiful community!
I’m blessedly grateful to introduce myself, Su Tindall, as one of the custodians of the newly formed Zen Space Collective
Serving Community has always shaped me. Growing up rural taught me the importance of connection, and shown how isolation can exist anywhere, even in busy, populated areas. My own journey has been shaped by trauma, resilience, and a midlife serendipity point that led me into natural health, movement, touch therapies, and a deep love of the nervous system and somatic embodied living.
During the past 25 years as a therapist/coach/ manager/team leader, my passion has been encouraging and helping others to live their lives in the best possible manner. Living in Mt Samson for 15 years I deeply appreciate the semi-rural aspects and call of country.
I’m excited to return to this beautiful space to offer: Weekly mindful movement Taiji Qigong Sound healing Biodynamic craniosacral experiencing
My heart is especially drawn to supporting people living with chronic and complex health challenges, across all abilities and backgrounds, helping them reconnect with comfort, compassion, and trust within themselves. The organic coming together of this collective has been of magical I’m deeply grateful to be collaborating within this team. As we turn the year, please stay safe. We can’t wait to welcome you back to Zen Space and continue building community — together. From my heart to yours, Su wellnessonthemove.com.au

Greetings beautiful community,

My name is Su Tindall - I feel blessed and grateful to introduce myself as one of the custodians of the newly formed Zen Space Collective.

Many will already know me from my offering bodywork, energy and movement therapies or from attending workshops or classes with me in both Zen Space and other locations, but I invite you all to hear my story.

Coming from a remote rural background, serving and being in community has always been a vital part of my upbringing. I have come to realise that isolation and loneliness are not restricted to location, indeed can be most deeply felt in highly populated areas and busy lives.

From that rural background and many of my former professions and private relationships, I found myself dealing with many traumas stoically and not always in a healthy manner. Fortunately, after hitting some pretty bumpy times, I had a “serendipity” moment and fell into the studies of natural health, touch and movement therapies, developing a passion for and understanding of our nervous systems, embryonic development and trauma patterning's.

Following my mid-life epiphany, during my 25 years as a therapist/coach/centre manager/team leader, I have followed my passion for encouraging and helping others to live their lives in the best possible manner. I have now lived at Mt Samson for 15 years and feel right at home in this community, appreciating the semi-rural aspects and magnificent scenery here.

The incentive for me to join the Zen Space Collective is to continue to support the building of a local well-being community, to have a wonderful space in which to offer some of my own work, and to continue to grow and learn from those around me.

I am returning to this beautiful space to share weekly mindful movement sessions, and to continue regular explorations into Taiji Qigong, sound healing and biodynamic craniosacral experiencing. I also look forward to being able to experience the sessions offered by others and to participate in offering events by outside facilitators.

My particular passion is working with people experiencing chronic and complex health issues, including different abilities and backgrounds, and to assist them find ease and comfort in their own bodies and hearts.

The organic formation of this group of Custodians has been a magical time, and I am so excited and grateful to have the opportunity to work together!

Please stay safe through the turning of the year – we look forward to welcoming you back to Zen Space and building community together!
From my heart to yours, in gratitude
Su

Hello beautiful community,

My name is Kym M Stewart and I feel deeply blessed to introduce myself as one of the new custodians of Zen Space Collective.

I come from a business background, opening my first restaurant at just 23 years old. From a young age, being of service to others has been my greatest motivation and joy.

At 35, I experienced a divinely guided awakening that called me into working with women — what I now understand as walking the feminine way. For over 25 years, I have held space in women’s circles, sharing the mysteries of womanhood, the phases of life, and teachings around empowerment and conscious attraction.

My partner and I are new to Queensland, having been guided to Samford just two years ago. From the moment we arrived, this area felt like home.

As a soul coach, energy healer, and Reiki Master teacher, I set a prayer to expand my offerings in service — and Zen Space Collective appeared.

Within this beautiful space, I will be offering weekly meditation circles, monthly women’s circles, and regular Reiki Level 1 and Level 2 trainings.

At almost 64, I am deeply moved and grateful to be working alongside this divine collective of inclusive women, all united by a heartfelt desire to serve our community.

I look forward to getting to know you through our offerings, our gatherings, and the shared journey ahead.

Abundant Blessings, Kym ❤️💚

Hello beautiful community,

My name is Kaarina, and I feel deeply honoured to be stepping into the role of custodian of a space that has held me for the past seven years — Zen Space.

As a Zen Thai Shiatsu practitioner and energy worker, and a lover of life, nature, and community, every time I enter Zen Space I feel the harmony, joy, and vibrant support that lives within its walls.

It’s a space that meets me as I lay out my mat and allows me to offer ease, presence, and deep relaxation to others through my treatments.

That’s why it feels so aligned to now be one of the co-creators helping weave energy, flow, and care into this sacred sanctuary by continuing to support the community it serves so beautifully.

2026 at Zen Space is going to be an exciting chapter.

We’ll be holding all the much-loved regular offerings, while welcoming new and vibrant experiences that only deepen the energy and intention of this space.

With a background in management and hands-on trades, I’ll be one of the grounded co- contributors. I will be joyfully twirling my tools in the space acting as the bridge between the practical and the energetic support for Zen Space to function, flow, and breathe with ease.

I look forward to seeing you in 2026 whether you find yourself on my mat for a treatment, or as we cross paths while you enjoy all that Zen Space has to offer.

With love and light,
Kaarina

Hello beautiful community 🤍

My name is Leonie Laukkanen and I’m deeply honoured to introduce myself as one of the new custodian’s of Zen Space.

I’m a Neurodiversity Coach, Mental Wellness mentor, yoga and mindfulness teacher, Intuitive Intelligence Trainer, Corporate Wellness Facilitator, speaker, and author of the award-winning book Mother Om.

I’m also a mum to three incredible neuro-sparkly kids, who are my greatest teachers.

For over 15 years, I’ve been guiding women through yogic wisdom, nervous system regulation, mindfulness, and intuitive living sharing practical tools that help us come back home to ourselves and live from the intelligence of the heart.

This year, a vision dropped in.

To build both online and in-person communities.

To create space for workshops, circles, yoga, music, and deep connection.

A sanctuary for sensitive souls ✨

I will be running monthly events for awake women to guide them to anchor and manifest their wildest dreams in 2026.

My vision for Zen Space is also to bring families to come together by offering quarterly community days.

Zen Space has been rooted in Samford Valley for over a decade and if you’ve ever stepped inside, you already know there is something sacred here.

I’m so grateful to be stepping into custodianship for 2026, honouring what already exists, and gently guiding this space into its next chapter.

Thank you for walking this path with me.

I can’t wait to co-create what’s coming 🤍

Love Leonie x
