Jean is an associate of mine whom I happily refer for ongoing maintenance and balance/strength building for my older clients once they are cleared from a Physiotherapy point of view. Jean is professional, prompt, compassionate and incredibly easy to work with. I have heard great things from my clients. Highly recommend.

Jean is a genuinely kind and caring yoga professional. She has extensive knowledge and perceptiveness, enabling her to teach the deeper aspects of yoga. With her persistent attentiveness and unique sense of humor, beginner and experienced yoga practitioners can only improve. Thanks to Jean's expert teaching, I am becoming more in tune with my body and have developed greater self-awareness and appreciation of the natural world.

A balanced yoga experience. Jean is demonstrably a very experienced guide along the yoga journey. Jean keeps an eye on each student and seems to be always there to adjust the pose when necessary. The exercises are tailored to the group and those which initially appear will be challenging, turn out to be quite achievable. The session ends with a short meditation, leaving you feeling energised and relaxed. Highly recommended.

As a senior in my 70s I was looking for something to help improve my flexibility. After joining Jean's class I have found what I was looking for and more with her great tuition and knowledge. Jean is such a pleasant, caring and well trained yoga teacher who adjusts movement and positions to suit everyones individual needs. I look forward to each and every class as I always come away feeling refreshed both physically and mentally. Thank you Jean.

Jean Leow is a excellent Yoga teacher. she is patient, conscientious, and caring. She teaches us various yoga poses according to our abilities and needs. It benefited me a lot. Ever since I took her class, I found my tendons were stronger, my body is more resilient, and my balance improved. I feel very happy. Thank you Jean.

I found Jean when I retired. I have always had an interest in yoga and tai chi. I do the Restorative Yoga class with Jean and have done so for the past year. She is incredibly caring, explains all the moves we are doing and their effect on the body and is mindful of any issues that you might have. The classes are very good for your mind and body.

I’m a sixty-three year old senior who’s been enjoying Jean’s Chair Yoga and Gentle exercise for a while now. An excellent class with a truly dedicated teacher, who also provides an encouraging and safe environment for pupils. The chair is used as a genuine prop - equal to the block or strap - and I’ve not felt this in other chair yoga classes I’ve taken. Making progress with muscle strength, flexibility and balance

About me


Profile photo Jean Leow

Hello there, my name is Jean Leow and I’m the founder and owner of Yoga Ink.

I started Yoga Ink in 2020. Coming off what feels like a lifetime in corporate work, I made a decision to start something that would hold meaning and purpose for me. I had spent 5 years volunteering in an aged care home for dementia residents and what I saw touched me deeply. I realised how important it is to maintain physical independence and mental agility as we grow older. We may not be able to control many things in our lives, but we can at least nurture our bodies and minds and take care of these precious gifts for as long as we can.

It was my Dad who first suggested that I try yoga. When I started yoga in 2009, I had an irregular heart beat and couldn’t touch my toes. I tried different yoga schools and after my first Iyengar yoga class, I knew this was the one for me. The sense of focus, compassion and inner strength that Iyengar yoga cultivates has helped me face numerous challenges along the way. I am very grateful for the experience and I hope to facilitate some of what I have learnt to those who may need it most.

I have always been surrounded by women who were strong, kind, smart, and fiercely independent – my beloved Grandmother, my best friend and my dearest Mum.  Sadly, they each faced grave illness and tremendous pain at their journeys’ end. I am inspired by their courage to walk their paths bravely and for everything they have taught me. Yoga Ink is dedicated to all these wonderful women.
