About Us

A Space for Self-Discovery and Exploration

beyondbeing yoga is proud to represent an all-levels, ever-expanding family of practitioners as they learn to step into the flow of grace—and to tap into their full physical, spiritual, and healing potential.

Hayley Schmidt, owner and creator of beyondbeing yoga, was first introduced to yoga at the age of sixteen, as a part of her training as a professional dancer. Initially drawn to the physical aspects of yoga, Hayley used the asana practice to help condition the body for the rigour of her profession. It wasn’t until some years later, when faced with severe hardship and loss, that Hayley began to discover the authentic spirit of yoga.

At beyondbeing, we believe this spirit of yoga is a deep, inner wisdom of the true nature of the Self and the world.  This understanding is revealed through the cultivation of mindfulness, self-awareness, and compassion.  It is a holistic approach to living that encompasses the physical, mental, and spiritual dimensions of being.

Testimonials

What People Are Saying

“For years I have dabbled in yoga but I’m finally starting to properly engage in the breathing and the mind aspect of it, and not see it as an exercise class or something I should do because I know it is good for me. I look forward to classes and  I am very grateful, thank you.”

Katherine, 54

Doctor

“The sequencing and flow of your class is amazing, very creative and challenging. After class I could feel the serotonin restoring my whole body, giving me a sense of calm and wellbeing. I have practiced yoga all over the world but nothing quite like beyondbeing, so thank you!”

Gary, 41

Special Council Corporate Lawyer

“I have always used yoga as a tool to maintain flexibility and strength. Beyondbeing classes provide an abundance of this, but Hayley has also succeeded in helping me realise the importance and benefits of stilling the mind.  This has been a discovery I have greatly enjoyed.”
