About Robyn
Robyn previously owned two Physiotherapy practices and values this background, a specialised practitioner in the promotion of safe physical activity, her aim is to promote ‘Movement for Life’, restoring independence, helping you breathe, improving your sports. Robyn has always encouraged people to be pro active in their health and fitness. Mindfulness is the key to our long term function and wellness.
Robyn began to teach yoga in Ngunguru Hall at the beginning of 2013 ‘this has been such a gift, a privilege and I have learnt so much’. She continues to take classes on Tuesdays and Thursdays.
Robyn also introduced Nordic Walking to the Tutukaka Coast in 2010, now lead by Linda. What a wellness treat that is!
Robyn offers Mindful Movement Therapy including both Individual Exercise and Yoga therapy sessions. Her point of difference is teaching people to learn about their body and the reason for their injury or ‘weakness’ – encouraging self awareness and acceptance with modifications and appropriate levels of exercise for the individual right now.
