Paige is a national surfing champion, fully qualified yoga teacher and fitness instructor, carer for people with brain injuries and one of the most vivacious, inspiring and grounded girls you will ever meet. Paige's great love for health, well being and sport saw her complete her certificate III fitness in 2008 and in November 2010, Paige followed her passion for Yoga by completing her yoga teaching training with Australia’s Master Duncan Peak at Power Living, Sydney. She went on to teach at Hot Power Yoga Newcastle for nine months, then migrated to the Hot Yoga Studio at Fitness Revolution Gateshead for 1 year, and The Yoga Loft Newcastle for 6 months, gaining a pretty fabulous reputation wherever she goes. Paige also completed her advanced Yoga Teacher’s Certificate at Byron Bay in 2011. Paige is a much loved local girl; she grew up by the lake at Coal Point with her parents, two sisters and brother. The youngest of her family, Paige left high school after completing year 11 and took to the Junior Professional Surfing Tour for two years, with her parents by her side. Within the six years of Paige’s competitive lifestyle in the sport, she travelled the world to many events and was crowned under 18s Australian Champion in 2008. She then went on to represent Australia at the ISA World Juniors event in Ecuador, where she placed 20th, a remarkable result. Paige returned to Newcastle in 2009 to settle down into her first job with ‘Headstart’ where she was caring for people who suffered from acquired brain injuries. She began this job to support her surfing, but after seeing how much she enjoyed helping others, she began to leave the surfing career behind. She started her yoga practice not long after and fell in love with it straight away. After growing up training for sport after sport and living such a competitive active lifestyle, she loved how yoga was a place of no judgment, no expectations, and was able to balance out her busy lifestyle finding peace and calmness.Yoga taught her to have patience, acceptance and love towards herself and everything she has achieved and really enjoy those moments of letting everything go. March 2011, Paige shaved her head for the Leukaemia Foundation’s ‘World’s Greatest Shave’, raising a whopping $11,400 towards research, and found herself in the newspaper many times!
