Creating spaces to tend to our bodies, our relationships and our place in the natural world.

ecotherapy guiding . yoga . meditation . somatic practices .

We weren’t made for this much rushing, scrolling and noise.

Through movement, meditation and somatic ecotherapy guiding, Youtopia creates spaces to move, notice, gather, play and remember different ways of being.

Life is full, fast and very online.

There’s always somewhere to be, something to respond to, another tab open, another thing asking for your attention.

Maybe you’re craving more time outside. More time in your body. Conversations that wander somewhere below the surface. More play. More quiet. More moments where nobody needs anything from you.

Maybe you’re grieving what’s happening to the natural world, or wondering how we got so far away from it in the first place.

Or maybe you can’t quite name what you’re looking for.

Just that there must be other ways to be here.

Youtopia is a place to explore them.

What’s On

Gatherings and workshops around Geelong, the Surf Coast and beyond.

Some involve yoga. Some involve wandering through the bush. Some involve sitting around talking about things we don’t usually make time to talk about.

Most involve a cuppa.

I’m a yoga teacher, somatic movement educator and ecotherapy guide living on Wadawurrung Country.

I spent the first part of my working life as a paramedic, which taught me plenty about humans, bodies and what happens when we keep going long after something in us is asking us to stop.

What helps us feel more alive and a part of this living world?

Youtopia grew from that curiosity.

It’s part yoga practice, part nature connection, part gathering place and part ongoing experiment in remembering how to be a human on a living planet we’re not separate from.

Meet Evie

G’day, I’m Evie.

"The nature immersion with Evie was such a wonderful way to reconnect, both with myself and with nature around me. In everyday life, it’s so easy to forget to breathe, slow down, notice the wind, the birds and take in the sense of wonder that is always there if we give ourselves time to notice it. Evie guided us through the experience with such a calm & thoughtful presence, creating space to switch off from everything else and be completely present. I left feeling incredibly refreshed, grounded & clear, in a way I hadn’t felt in a long time."

Sandra
Time With Trees Participant
“Evie is a wonderful guide, and her excitement and love for nature is infectious. I loved having the opportunity to slow down and experience nature with all my senses. The highlight of the day for me was the child-like excitement of finding an interesting piece of nature to give to another participant, and how hard I tried to find the coolest pebble of leaf - it felt like being a toddler again”

Brett
Time With Trees Participant
“Evie has a rare way of blending grounded practices, reflection, and honest storytelling. What she offers helps you feel steadier, more connected, and more trusting of yourself in everyday life.”

Mary
Somatic Workshop Participant
“I’ve been attending Evie’s Mellow yoga classes twice a week for over a year, and they have become some of my favourite moments of the week. I love that there is a comforting sense of familiarity and predictability in the structure of each class, while Evie still manages to keep things fresh by weaving in new mantras, thoughtful quotes, seasonal themes and small changes that make every class feel considered. Evie has such a calm and warm presence, and she creates an environment where everyone can practise in a way that feels right for them. She always offers plenty of options for different abilities, without anything ever feeling forced, overly serious or pretentious. Her classes feel welcoming, grounding and genuinely enjoyable. It’s a truly wonderful yoga experience, and one I look forward to every week.

Acknowledgement

Youtopia lives, gathers and practices on Wadawurrung Country.

We acknowledge the Traditional Owners of the lands, skies and waters where this work takes place, and recognise that sovereignty was never ceded. We pay our respects to Elders past and present, and honour the enduring connection of First Nations peoples to Country, culture, ancestors and community.

We acknowledge the generations of wisdom held within First Nations cultures, particularly the practices of deep listening, relationship with Country and understanding ourselves as part of the living world. We recognise that much of the work we offer draws upon or shares ground with these ancient ways of knowing and being.

We also acknowledge the privilege from which we offer this work, and the ongoing impacts of colonisation and disconnection from Country.

Our hope is that this work contributes, in some small way, to healing our relationships with ourselves, each other and the natural world. To remember that our wellbeing is bound up with the wellbeing of the places and communities to which we belong.

May we continue to listen, learn and care for the places that care for us.
