50+ Years of Combined Expertise

It’s a rare offering to find two expert practitioners in complementary specialty fields on one platform. 


Through their distinctive methodologies - holistic physiotherapy and spiritual-based psychotherapy - Carla and Jonni bring people into a deep and stable awareness of the intelligence within us all by reconnecting the body and the mind through movement and meditation.


Together they guide members through a system of awakening to uncover a deeper experience of ourselves, what we really value and how to embody this in everyday life. 

"We wanted to create a new context for unifying the physical, mental and emotional, with the bridge connecting our work being deeper self awareness. Through our practical systems of healing we reconnect members to who they truly are and the power within each of us to serve the greater good of our world, while standing taller, moving stronger, and embracing life with grace, clarity, and ease.


Working in combination is the fastest and most effective way to get there."

Jonni Pollard

Jonni has been studying, practicing and teaching within the Vedic tradition for over 30 years.


After a series of powerful spiritual experiences in his late teens, he travelled to India to make sense of what was unfolding within him. In the coming years, he realised his deepest spiritual nature. Under the guidance of great masters he trained the ability to guide others out of suffering into their power.


Jonni is most well known as the founder of 1 Giant Mind, having taught over 1.7 million people through their ‘Learn to Meditate’ app. In the last decade, Jonni has mainly occupied his time in private practice as a Spiritual Mentor and Therapist.


During this time he has refined a system that he refers to as ‘Veda Therapy’, a spiritual based psychotherapeutic approach to healing trauma and awakening the authentic spiritual experience. It is an elegant fusion of ancient yogic practices, Vedic knowledge and modern psychology models, creating a practice that is deeply relevant for the challenges and demands we face in life.

Carla Dimattina

Carla is a Holistic Physiotherapist with an artful focus on functional movement and the integration of the spiritual and emotional layers that present in the body.

Graduating from Melbourne University, and going on to specialise in clinical pilates, Carla has worked around the world honing her unique approach and elevating her clients to new levels of physical and emotional wellness.


Eternally curious and committed to her own personal growth, Carla has studied under many masters of movement within the martial arts, yoga and clinical pilates arenas.

For over a decade, Carla ran her own private clinic in Manhattan, quickly earning a reputation as one of the most sought after practitioners in New York. She became renowned for getting incredible results where other practitioners and pathways had not been successful. Carla worked with the biggest names in business, film and music often traveling with them across the world as an integral part of their team.


Carla's has forged her own methodology, a unique movement system she calls 'Chain' - the culmination of 20 years of practising and observing how to cause powerful healing and transformation.
