Hi, Iâm Genevieve (Gen), founder of Harvest Yoga Rutherglen.
I didnât set out to build a yoga studio. I simply followed a path that, over time, felt impossible to ignore.
Iâm a scientist on paper, my work is grounded in a Bachelor of Exercise Science and over 10,000 hours of teaching experience, but my greatest teachers have always been the people who walk through the studio doors. Their stories, challenges, growth, and courage continue to shape the way I teach.
Alongside yoga, I work as a Bowen Therapist and am currently studying Somatic Movement Exercise, deepening my understanding of how the body stores, expresses, and ultimately heals through movement and awareness.
Like many women, I juggle the beautiful chaos of family life, business ownership, and the endless balancing act of trying to do all the things well.
I know imposter syndrome like an old friend, I know perfectionism. I know the feeling of wondering whether Iâm doing enough.
But I also know this:
Teaching yoga is the thing that consistently brings me home. itâs a calling, I am meant to be doing this.
Not because I have all the answers, but because I get to witness something extraordinary. I get to watch people reconnect with themselves. To see confidence grow. To watch someone realise they are stronger, softer, more capable, and more whole than they believed.
My classes arenât about perfect poses or performing on a mat. Theyâre about creating a space where people can breathe, move, feel, and remember who they are beneath the noise of everyday life.
If thereâs one thing I hope people leave with after practising with me, itâs not greater flexibility or a more advanced yoga pose (although you will likely see this too), Itâs a deeper trust in themselves.
Because in the end, yoga isnât about becoming someone else.
Itâs about discovering a version of yourself that feels like home.
