Hello!
Who we are
Founded in 2020 by Dan and Nic, Gold Coast Meditation is all about sharing our passion and knowledge of traditional meditation, breaking misconceptions along the way.
Life is about having fun, and practicing meditation is no different!
We are both teachers of the effortless 1 Giant Mind Being Meditation technique. We’re passionate and committed to cultivating a community of like minded people to make meditation more accessible. You don’t need to be a monk on a mountain to feel the benefits of meditation.
Having experienced first-hand the many benefits of meditation in our own daily lives, it wasn’t until we discovered the effortless Being technique that we truly understood how profound meditation can be. We both knew immediately that if we were experiencing such significant personal shifts, then we could help others benefit from the increased peace and resilience we felt.
The easiest way to learn with us is to attend a free intro talk, which we hold online or at our space in Kirra. When you learn with us we provide continuing support with your meditation practice, in the form of drop in group meditations where you can meditate with your fellow community, or private consultations if you require further assistance.

From monkey mind to meditator, it’s been quite the journey to becoming a meditation teacher. Like so many others I found meditation via my yoga practice. The time I spent meditating after yoga increased, and subtle changes were quickly noticed by those around me. A dedicated practice was formed when I completed my yoga teacher training in Bali in 2015. I noticed a huge shift very quickly and started to investigate all sorts of different techniques. It wasn’t until I guided my closest friend towards meditation, that I realised this was what I needed to do. Learning how to teach the effortless 1 Giant Mind 3-Day Learn Meditation course was the next step in my path. Being able to bring this graceful practice to others is joyful and humbling.
Enough about me, because this experience is all about you! I am here to support you on your journey to less stress and anxiety, better health and increased vitality.

Having travelled extensively with my passion for surfing I’m now based on the Gold Coast of Australia with my wonderful partner Nic. I feel more at home than ever in the Sunshine State.
I’ve had a host of various vocations in my life, from working as a DJ around Australia in my twenties, to being a Senior Wine Broker for one of Australia’s leading retailers in my thirties. It’s only when I found myself burnt out and suffering from a build up of stress and fatigue, that I figured there was more to life than what I was experiencing in the corporate environment.
It was Nic who actually introduced me to a daily meditation practice, and it changed my life forever. The benefits were so profound that I immediately saw it as my life’s purpose to help share this knowledge with others, and become a meditation teacher myself. I am now dedicated to providing my students with a life filled with more joy, awareness, clarity, fulfilment and purpose.
I am qualified to teach the 1 Giant Mind 3-Day Learn Meditation course, and am a certified Holistic Counsellor.
