A Little
About Me
Born in the Philippines, I moved to Australia with my family at the age of eight. My incredible single mother, who courageously brought us here on her own, while raising two children, her parents, as well as supporting the extended family in Asia, taught me the values of courage, kindness and resilience. From her, I learned early on the importance of fighting for something meaningful.
As a very sensitive and nervous child, I was adept at hiding my anxiety. I was drawn to ancient practices because they offered me a way to manage my anxiety and do the inner work necessary to let go of aspects of myself that no longer served me. This journey of self-discovery and healing is ongoing, constantly evolving as I grow.

My personal
journey
Adjusting to a new country wasn’t easy. I often felt different and constantly driven to prove myself. Recognising the opportunities I had, I pursued careers in nursing and banking to support myself, yet I constantly felt a disconnect between my body and mind. It was my lifelong passion for dance that I discovered my true calling.
Dance, creativity, performing, and staying active taught me the value of movement. After studying dance at Queensland University, I moved to Sydney to become a professional dancer, eventually working in musical productions and acting on stage and screen. I built a successful career in dance and acting, and I still enjoy performing when the right roles come along.
From an early age, I was drawn to the spiritual path.
I had many questions about life, and a book by Louise Hay “Heal Your Body” set me on my personal development journey long before it became as popular as it is today. In my mid twenties I attended a 30-day silent Vipassana meditation retreat in Thailand. Entering with curiosity I emerged transformed. The person I was on day one was completely different by day 30. Returning to Australia, I knew my path had changed.
MEET JEMMA
A lightbulb had been switched on inside me.
I travelled far and wide, seeking wisdom from the best Masters in various traditions. I studied qigong and yoga—both forms of dance in their own way—and became a certified teacher. With this newfound fire, I delved deep into self-enquiry, self- discovery and healing, making it my core focus for over three decades. My studies include Ayurveda, Tantra, Reiki, Pranic Healing, Massage, Soul Voice, Buddhism, A Course In Miracles and years of personal development with wonderful teachers in Dr. John de Martini, Dr. Joe Dispenza, Esther Hicks and many more. I’m passionate about sharing my journey and the wisdom I’ve gained to help others find their own path to balance and fulfilment. Let’s embark on this transformative journey together!

Professional Experience
Combining a rich array of tools and practices, I’ve dedicated my life to helping people neutralise emotional and physical imbalances guiding them towards a life filled with inspiration, joy and grace.
I’m fortunate to teach courses, classes, and coaching sessions at award-winning resorts, present to thousands at global festivals, and lead seminars and workshops for corporate clients, including Richard Branson’s Virgin Active. I work closely with busy, hard-working women to reconnect them with their feminine essence, inner beauty and vitality, and with everyday businessmen and women on stress management, mindfulness and mindset mastery.
Every day, I feel immense gratitude for the opportunities that have come my way. These doors opened because I listened to my inner voice.
When’s the last time you listened to yours?
MEET JEMMA
From Borneo
to Bali
As a lover of life and wanting adventure, I began exploring other cultures in 1995. I assisted a documentary maker on the deforestation of Borneo and lived with the Panan Indians to tell the story of their loss of natural habitat.
My quest for knowledge led me to study with great masters and teachers worldwide, from Master Yuan in the foothills of Mt. Wudangshan and Dr. Xu in Beijing Hospital, to Master teachers in the jungles of Bali, and many exceptional teachers in Australia and the U.S.
These experiences and teachers have shaped who I am today. As I’ve gained personal healing, deep knowledge and experience, I felt a profound calling to share the gifts of ancient wisdom with the world.
I understand what it’s like not to belong. I know what it’s like to feel different. I’ve felt lost on my journey. I’ve faced hardship, stress, and even infertility.
Through authenticity and connection, I aim to help others find their voice, their path and their freedom. Let’s embark on this journey together, embracing the unique experiences that shape us and finding strength in our shared stories.
