A Canberra competitor prepares for the world stage
Jayson Perrin is preparing to represent Australia at December’s yogasana championships in Italy.

Canberra Daily’s November 14 profile follows Jayson Perrin, a 54-year-old tradesman from Charnwood, as he prepares for the World Yogasana Championships in Italy.
One particular path through practice
The report dates Perrin’s first yoga classes to 2012 and his start in competition to 2021. It describes a December trip to represent Australia, followed by his stated ambition to become a judge.
The International Yogasana Sports Federation lists the championship in Marina di Camerota from December 4 to 6, 2026. That confirms the event’s planned place and dates; Perrin’s participation and personal plans are reported by Canberra Daily.
Competitive yogasana is a specific setting for practice. The newspaper describes judges assessing postures for difficulty and execution, rather than a general class in which every participant works toward the same result.
Perrin’s account includes personal injuries and training experiences. Those anecdotes do not establish medical benefits or a safe routine for someone else. The narrower story is a person finding a place in a particular sporting community, then considering another role within it. The championship is still ahead, so no result can yet be reported.
