Lynda Miers-Henneveld

Lynda has been teaching Hatha yoga in Wellington since 1996. She was initially trained in the Iyengar style of Hatha Yoga, which helped her to develop a thorough understanding of the alignment principles of the practice. Lynda draws inspiration from the teachings of Simon Borg-Olivier, Judith Lasater, Donna Farhi and Nicky Knoff. She aims to create a safe and supportive environment in which students are free to explore their own experience of yoga.

Lynda’s personal teaching style combines active and restorative sequences to create a balanced and rounded practice for students of all levels.

Lynda completed a two year teaching apprenticeship through the New Zealand School of Yoga in 1999. She holds a Certificate of Fitness Management from the University of Otago (2001), as well as Nicky Knoff’s Foundation Certificate (350hrs – 2005). She attended Judith Lasater’s Yoga Therapeutics teacher training in Restorative Yoga postures in 2006 and in 2008 attended another 20-hour teacher training with Judith.
