About
Australia Yoga Teacher Training is here to revolutionise your understanding of yoga. Grounded in nervous system education, trauma-informed care, and relational depth, we invite students into all facets of yoga so the teachings become a part of their lives — encompassing their wellbeing, relationships and communication, on and off the mat.
Our mission is to produce authentic and confident yoga teachers by offering practical, grounded and supportive teachings founded in thousands of years of tradition and modern research. These are ancient teachings for modern times.
Testimonial
I didn’t expect such an introspective journey to unravel. This course promoted me to carve out a path and commitment to my own personal daily yoga practice that isn't reliant on a teacher or a yoga school. A life commitment. I didn’t expect the course would have such a profound impact on me, my decisions and my happiness. Fast forward a few months and I am teaching yoga in a school and my understanding and classes feel credible.
Darci facilitated, inspired and prompted a journey for each and every one of us in the most non-intrusive way. A true spiritual teacher in the sense that she gave us no answers yet fuelled our own exploration. There are few experiences in your life that you look back on and know, they really changed your life. For me, this was one of them.

Meet The Founder
 Darci has been facilitating yoga teacher trainings for over 10 years and is a devout Zen student under the guidance of her teacher Mark Togni spanning almost 20 years. Her love of Buddhist philosophy weaves naturally into her teaching, making it accessible to the total beginner while continuing to deepen the more experienced practitioners practice.
Darci is currently in her third year of a Master's degree in Gestalt therapy — a relational, humanistic approach to psychotherapy rooted in present-moment awareness, contact, and the lived experience of being human — Darci brings a depth of psychological understanding to her teaching that goes well beyond the mat. Gestalt therapy and yoga share a profound common thread: both trust the wisdom of the body, both work with what is alive right now, and both believe that real transformation happens in relationship.
Nervous system aware, trauma-informed, and deeply passionate about relational awareness, Darci is endlessly curious about what it truly means to be human. This curiosity is the heartbeat of every training she runs and every class she teaches.
She is often described as authentic, transparent, open, and discerning — someone who makes those around her feel safe, worthy, capable, seen and heard. She usually has a big smile on her face and a laugh that can be heard from miles away.
More About Darci“Yoga saved my life. It enables me to find peace, gratitude and understanding in
even the darkest moments.”
“The thing that has always struck me about Darci is her authenticity. Her words and even the way that she’d go about saying them would have me nodding, "yes that’s totally it", while lying in Savasana. Darci has the ability to relate to all members of the class because she is the essence of REAL. There’s no BS. This has benefited me greatly.”
