Yoga Theory
Christopher is a really passionate yoga teacher and fitness professional. I have worked with him in a professional capacity for over a year now and he is very reliable and a great person to work with. He is always on time and completes the duties required and loves to help people and make them feel welcome.
Ann Lang
Manager
Fitness on the Park
Chris came to us with a wide range of skills with his first love being Yoga. In no time had introduced a Chair Yoga session and offering other Yoga classes. He has been adept in combining his skills with floor exercises, balance and strength programmes for the older adult. Chris is interested in our members and follows up their medical and exercise needs on our fitness floor. He has a pleasant manner and is enjoyed by both the groups and individual members. Chris has always been willing to help out with emergency shifts and for this I am most grateful.

The Y - Purruna Spencer Newton Centre
Chris is a warm and friendly instructor, who is passionate about his commitment to teaching. I have found that Chris has good communication skills and is responsive about requested class covers and extra one-off classes which require an instructor. Chris fits in well with the team at The Y and is building good rapport with members of all ages.
