Bianca first began yoga in 1989, whilst studying for a Bachelor of Science (majors in Human Psychology and Biology) at the University of Sydney. After her first eye-opening trip to India in 1990, there has never been a moment’s doubt or faltering in her commitment to the practice of yoga. Bianca has trained with Simon Borg-Olivier (Sydney), Shandor Remete (Sydney), BKS Iyengar (Pune, Rishikesh and Sydney), Sri K Pattabhi Jois (Sydney), Clive Sheridan (Sydney, India, France).
After completing her BSc, Bianca worked at the University of Sydney as a research assistant in Microbiology and at Sydney Water as an algal taxonomist, while co-directing the then Newtown School of Hatha Yoga (now Yoga Synergy Newtown).
In 1993, Bianca qualified as an ACHPER-certified physical instructor and a certified masseuse. During this time many trips to India to study Yoga, inspired Bianca to return to university in 1994 to study Physiotherapy. Bianca studied Physiotherapy (University of Sydney) to further her knowledge of the human body and western medicine in order to enhance her yoga teaching. In 1998, Bianca and Simon took over the Hatha Yoga Shala from Shandor Remete in Bondi Junction and opened Yoga Synergy Bondi. Together, with Simon, she has organized and taught in workshops on Yoga, Anatomy & Physiology and Nutrition throughout Australia and also in Europe and India since 1990.
As co-director of Yoga Synergy, Bianca teaches and is responsible for administration and organization of the school’s daily running as well as co-teaching the Teacher Training program at Yoga Synergy.
