Having drifted, directionless through life, Reg was lured away from his hometown, Edinburgh, with the promise of beaches and the easy life across the globe in Melbourne.
Here, he discovered the benefits of yoga as a means of relaxation and de-stressing whilst working in Community Services and Welfare. Weekly classes turned into more serious yoga as a regular student and the years of pain and aches from tour managing Scottish musicians around the UK and Europe (and all associated bad habits!) began to dissipate. His body feeling as fit as it had when he was playing football (soccer) as an undergraduate Law student.
Reg found himself propelled into an intensive Knoff Foundation Yoga Teacher Training in Wellington, New Zealand with master teacher Nicky Knoff, (www.knoffyoga.com) “the most challenging, and equally, most rewarding experience that I have ever had!”
Within 2 days of returning from Wellington, Reg began his yoga-teaching career at BeachYoga. He has since completed his Intermediate Level Yoga Teacher Training (Pregnancy / Therapy) with Nicky Knoff. To compliment his continuing knowledge, he enjoys practicing Iyengar, Yoga Synergy, Ashtanga and Power Yoga.
He is continually immersing himself in the great Melbourne culture, especially music and the arts and has replaced his love of football with a love of Aussies Rules Footy, swapping Partick Thistle for the Saints! He delights in hearing of the Saints players practicing yoga to supplement their training regime, a continuing direction for many elite athletes. He would be even more delighted to get the likes of Rod Stewart & Ronnie Woods onto a yoga mat!
Reg can be contacted at BeachYoga (Hampton) at www.beachyoga.com.au or on 0402 961 066 for more details and current class times, and looks forward to sharing with you the fantastic bay views from your yoga mat.
