Christchurch Yoga Teacher: Pavitra of Yoga for You Christchurch Yoga Teacher: Pavitra of Yoga for You

It’s been a few weeks since The Yoga Lunchbox featured a yoga teacher from around the country, and it is my great delight to introduce you to Pavitra. Born in Germany, she discovered yoga through books at the age of 17. Already burning with a strong desire to know more about the mysteries of life, Pavitra didn’t let the lack of a real-life... [Read more of this review]


Christchurch Yoga Teacher: Kris Woods Christchurch Yoga Teacher: Kris Woods

Taupo Yoga Teacher: Fiona Links Taupo Yoga Teacher: Fiona Links

Australian-born Fiona Links fell in love with a kiwi (that’s him there in the photo with her) and as a result has ended up living and teaching in Taupo.

Extra studies also included... [Read more of this review]


Dunedin Yoga Teacher: Rachel Dalley Dunedin Yoga Teacher: Rachel Dalley

It’s been great moving down to Dunedin because I’ve had the opportunity to meet a whole new crew of yoga teachers. Rachel is one of those teachers. She first got interested in yoga at the young age of 14 years, but didn’t feel comfortable in her first class so it was many years before she went back. Now, a few decades later, Rachel... [Read more of this review]

A writer with several short stories and one poem published in literary magazines, Emma recently spent four... [Read more of this review]


Wellington Yoga Teacher: Greg Colson Wellington Yoga Teacher: Greg Colson

He’s just brought his family to New Zealand from the UK – a home-coming for the Kiwi-born Greg, but a big adventure for his English wife and son. Like many people, a bad back got Greg into yoga and the impact it had on his mind and emotions got him hooked. The former self-professed tech geek is now a Sivananda-trained teacher. You can catch... [Read more of this review]


Auckland Yoga Teacher: Sue Grbic Auckland Yoga Teacher: Sue Grbic

Sue’s yoga path started in the late ’70s in South Africa when she was initiated onto a path of meditational yoga – a path she still follows  today. Hatha yoga followed soon afterwards and happily saw her through three pregnancies. When she moved to New Zealand,  her three girls were very little, but once the youngest started school... [Read more of this review]
