Experience Brisbane Rooftop Yoga: Elevate Your Mind, Body, and Spirit
In today’s fast-paced world, finding peace and clarity often means stepping above the hustle and bustle and getting closer to the clouds. Brisbane Rooftop Yoga was born from this very need—created by founder May Yuen to provide a unique, elevated yoga experience that fosters relaxation and social connection right in the heart of Brisbane.
Originally from Hong Kong, May moved to Australia in 2012 to study Media and Communication at Queensland University of Technology. Her experience as an immigrant, far from her family, helped her understand the value of community and connection. “In Hong Kong, we often live in high-rise buildings, yet we barely connect with each other, leading to feelings of isolation,” she shares. May’s vision for Brisbane Rooftop Yoga is rooted in this desire to build community and promote well-being.
After graduating, May worked for four years as a marketing specialist in property investment. However, the corporate lifestyle wasn’t fulfilling for her. “Despite the financial stability, I felt a lack of purpose,” she says. Seeking a meaningful change, May left her job to complete a six-month Yoga Teacher Training course at the Biomedical Institute of Yoga, where she honed her skills in meditation, breathing techniques, and various yoga philosophies.
Drawing inspiration from her hometown’s rooftop culture—where, in the 1950s and 60s, Kung Fu masters practiced with students on building tops to foster community—May envisioned a similar setting in Brisbane. Surrounded by the city’s high-rises, she saw an opportunity to create Brisbane Rooftop Yoga as a modern sanctuary where residents can come together, elevate their well-being, and build connections. “With Brisbane Rooftop Yoga, I hope to create a platform that encourages community, meaningful conversations, and a healthier lifestyle,” she says.
