I am a yoga and sailing instructor in Wanaka, New Zealand, although I am originally from Ireland. I have been teaching yoga for 3 years and sailing for 20 years and now combine my two passions with my Yoga & Sailing Retreats. I came to yoga in 2009 after suffering for several years with chronic back pain, yoga has changed my life and it something I am a huge advocate of for anyone else suffering. I teach yoga classes locally each week and watching my students gain strength, flexibility, calm and acceptance of themselves and their bodies through this practice has been such a pleasure and honour to witness.
