Simone MacKay

Raised and educated in Switzerland, Simone began her life of service in early childhood, saving up her monthly allowance and sending it to international aid organizations. After years of working as a counselor specializing in women’s issues, she trained with Yoga Arts in Australia before teaching throughout the greater Asian realm, enjoying the simple, free and romantic life of a traveling Yogini. Initially inspired by Ashtanga, she moved on to study Vinyasa Flow, Yin Yoga, and Yoga Therapy before founding the School of Sacred Arts (‘SOSA’) in order to share the gift of yoga more deeply.

Increasingly drawn to nature-based spirituality, that speaks to the indigenous soul within us all, she brings this essence into her yoga practice and teaching, holding space with a gentle grace in her trainings, workshops and retreats around the world.

She is passionate about the practice of Yoga Nidra, having worked with it for numerous years and more recently completing her level 1 & 2 iRest trainings with Richard Miller.
