Yoga allows us to find the light within and let it shine.

Having spent decades in the corporate world, I understand how stress impacts us and the benefits of yoga, meditation and mindfulness to create a balanced life.

I believe that Yoga is all about connection, to oneself and to others.Yoga, for me has always uplifted me and enabled me to thrive and become more in flow with life, able to meet its challenges with greater ease.

I am a 500Hr RYT certified yoga teacher, having trained with Blissologist founder Eoin Finn in Bali and Canada from 2017-2019. The style I teach is Vinyasa Flow, which connects breath with movement to calm the nervous system, create body awareness and improve energy flow.

Founded by yogi, surfer and Blissologist Eoin Finn in 1999 Blissology is a yoga system which explores strategies for bringing more joy, awe, love and bliss into our lives.

I run corporate yoga programmes either as one off workshops or as a regular practice - contact me for further details on how I can structure something to suit you and your team.

I currently also teach classes in my home city of Nelson and run retreats. For more information click below:

This will be the fourth Find Your Flow Retreat at Mana and each year it is refined to reflect what people say they need, to get the most out of their time here. The focus of the weekend is rest and connection: exploring wellbeing practices that allow you to destress and connect to yourself, each other, and Nature away from your busy life so you can feel grounded, nurtured and centred.

It’s a weekend for you to explore yoga and meditation practices through daily guided meditations and Yoga. Being at Mana means you are immersed in Nature and you will have plenty of time to explore and enjoy the stunning surroundings. We will also explore some different meditation and breathwork practices so you can perhaps find something that works for you that you can incorporate into your life.

Each day you there will be a guided meditation, Vinyasa Flow yoga practice and an evening Yin/restorative yoga session.

Everything is optional and all you need to do is decide the flow of the days that will help you relax, recharge and reconnect. The classes are for all levels, please be mindful that if you are an experienced yogi wanting a challenge then this probably is not the retreat for you.

I look forward to welcoming you.

Testimonials from prior retreats:

“This retreat was just what I needed – it was the perfect length, in the perfect location. Jo’s teaching style is so inclusive and non-confrontational. She brings yoga back to what it should be, which is enjoyable and what is comfortable for you. I would definitely come again!”

“The yoga retreat was epic. Jo is a fantastic yoga instructor and guided me with ease to find my level of ability. No pressure, my pace and a fun retreat. I highly recommend you put Jo + The Flow Co on your bucket list !!”

Sandy, Nelson

I am a regular attendee at Jo’s Vinyasa Flow class.

I have learnt so much from Jo in these classes. She is warm and encouraging, explains the postures with calm and gives plenty of options for each one. There is no judgement or comparison in Jo’s classes.

Recently, Jo has introduced outdoor yoga and it is lovely connecting with nature as part of the practice.

Jo’s special Savasana is a highlight and you leave feeling your body relaxed and your mind at ease. I always look forward to the next class!
