Meet Monique Carroll
Hi, I am Monique the Island Yoga Girl on Eleuthera!
I have been practicing and teaching Yoga for over 30 years. Island Yoga is a wonderful practice for everyone, every level, age and gender.
It’s a wholesome, unique Island experience!
Beneficial for your body mind and soul, including breathing techniques and meditation.
Practice with me privately at your home, rental, the magnificent beaches or join our seasonal community open class on Saturday mornings at the Levy Preserve. The park has a big covered pavilion, ideal for Yoga surrounded by nature.
For those that prefer a fitness class, I got you covered. Build muscles, abs and strength with my core strength classes using a fitness ball, weights, bands or just your bodyweight, let’s go!
As a personal trainer, I love to put together practice programs for clients that are on the Island for a longer period of time. Guide, support and cheer them on to become the best version of themselves.
If you desire a practice that is more calm and helps reduce stress, tightness, pain and promotes health, well being and longevity then I welcome you to my Qi Gong class. Where we work with energy and tap into flow state.
And if you would like to receive healing energy, then a Reiki session is for you. Settle in comfortably on a massage bed and receive Reiki.
As a complementary therapy, Reiki works on 4 levels of healing:
physical, emotional, mental and spiritual.
It always goes where it is needed.
A little About Me:
I came to Yoga after having major injuries on my ankle and I wasn’t able to perform and work in the sports anymore that I was pursuing at the time.
My physiotherapist said Yoga would be O.K. to do and I spontaneously checked into an Ashram, studied Yoga, Breath work and Meditation while healing my ankle. I completely fell in love with the practice and started connecting with my body in a whole different level that was beneficial for everything. On my return, friends and people from the community wanted to learn and practice as well and I became a certified Yoga Teacher. I’ve been practicing, teaching and studying ever since, filled with gratitude and passion.
My injury was healed as good as possible and I was able to start building muscles and strengthening my core with the fitness ball, weights and all the fun props that are out there to make it efficient and fun.
So what did you do when Covid hit and we all were in isolation? I immersed myself in studying online everything that possibly interested me. Lots of health, exercise, yin/restorative yoga and well-being practices.
I was thrilled when I came across a Qi Gong course that was offered. Isn’t there a little Bruce Lee in all of us? I didn’t study with Bruce Lee, but with Lee Holden, a most amazing Qi Gong teacher!
I saw so many benefits from the practice bringing it to my yoga students as well and seeing the change in them, that becoming a certified teacher was a desire that I completed in 2022.
So when did Reiki come into my life? It was actually long before the Yoga.
I had many bad allergic reactions to Western Medicine and antibiotics at a young age.
So I was drawn to natural healing methods.
I traveled a lot before I settled in Eleuthera and the gift of Reiki in our hands, we have with us always. It is my constant healing and maintenance practice for everything. And I love to share it with everyone that would like to receive Reiki or learn it.
