My journey with yoga began 13 years ago after the birth of my first child, and for the past 10 years I’ve had the privilege of sharing this practice with others. I’ve completed more than 500 hours of Yoga Alliance–accredited training across Ashtāṅga Vinyāsa, Ghosh, Restorative and Yin Yoga, and continue to deepen my understanding through ongoing study with respected teachers from India and around the world. My teaching is deeply influenced by the structure and discipline of the Ashtāṅga tradition while also drawing on contemporary approaches that make the practice accessible for every body. I aim to create classes that feel grounding, intentional and welcoming, offering students the opportunity to build strength, cultivate awareness and experience yoga as more than just physical movement. Alongside studio teaching, I facilitate trauma-sensitive yoga at two local prisons. This work is incredibly meaningful to me and reflects my belief that yoga should be accessible to everybody, regardless of their circumstances. In addition, I’ve completed the comprehensive STOTT PILATES® Matwork certification through Be Pilates New Zealand, allowing me to expand my offerings to include Mat Pilates classes alongside yoga.

Hello, I'm CT. Teaching has always been my passion as I enjoy sharing my knowledge on anything related to our wellbeing. Yoga started off to be a challenge for me, as it requires stillness and keeping a clear mind while being on the mat. Over the years, I've grown to enjoy the discipline of the sport as the benefits could be seen in my fitness routine and my mental health. Now I would take any chance to advocate about yoga, even if it's just 1 minute of breathing exercise! I often tell people that yoga is not just about arm balances or inversions; it is about connecting within yourself, moving your body and being present. So let's flow and unwind together.
