Simmy
Meet Simone (Simmy) Lawry grew up in a rural small town Greenhithe, exploring the forest with her cat, rabbits and goat. Eating the peaches from the neighbour’s trees. The eldest of 3 girls. Listening to the sounds of Deep Purple, Simply Red, Fleetwood Mac & Margret Urlich.
Obsessed with dance, movement and music at the age of 4. Expressing herself through rhythmic gymnastics and ballet. Representing New Zealand at the Australian Championships. Winning the New Zealand Rhythmic Gymnastic Nations at the age of 12.
At the age of 19 she left for North Carolina, USA to work as a Camp Counsellor. Which then took her live in Sydney, experience London, Spain, Paris, Italy, Thailand, Bali, Peru, Bolivia, Ireland, Amsterdam, Dubai.
Her career as a carer and creative artist always came back to matters of life, spirituality, movement, health and wellbeing. It was always asking her to let it become ALIVE. So in 2017 she started her journey of becoming a yoga teacher. Studying Baron Baptise and Meghan Currie. Being lit up by Denise Ferguson, Michelle Allen, Nicky Harris and Kirsty Van Dergeer. The learnings of her own journey has enabled her to witness the effects on her mindset, soul-set and heart-set. Knowing that the skills and education she has absorbed and experienced on herself work and have saved her in many ways.
In her own words she is adaptable, moody, fair, honest, determined, creative and a rebel. Her highest of purpose is to be of service to all the beings.
