About Us

“True yoga is not about the shape of your body, but the shape of your life. Yoga is not to be performed; it is to be lived.”

Get to Know Us

Chu Yoga is your space for yoga and mindfulness — the synergy of Eastern philosophy, spirituality, mindfulness and Western science, brought by Christine (Yoga Teacher, B.App.Sc. Physiotherapy) and Crystal (Meditation Teacher).

Christine

Yoga Teacher · B.App.Sc. (Physiotherapy)

Christine's journey with yoga began at just 14 years old. Quietly, within the confines of her room, she experimented with asanas (yoga poses), mudras (hand seals) and bandhas (energetic locks) — stumbling her way through what she felt was an intuitive practice. Over time, she saw how determination, curiosity and deep presence with breath and body were all that was needed to move beyond limits and difficulties. What began as the excitement of meeting playful physical challenges became a lifelong fascination with how we not only meet but exceed our perceived limits. To her, yoga was proof that the human soul is capable of so much more than one may initially believe.

Eventually her practice evolved, and she earned a Bachelor's degree in Physiotherapy. Now she promotes health and holistic integration with the Self through yoga, supported by the scientific precision of her physiotherapy studies. Christine blends the ancient art of yoga asana with modern biomechanics, helping you move with intention, safety and grace.

In her spare time, you'll find Christine at the beach, or experimenting with natural, eco-friendly and Ayurveda-aligned meals, remedies and lifestyle items.

Crystal

Meditation Teacher

As Christine was exploring yoga postures, her sister Crystal was drawn to the subtle side of yoga — meditation, and a growing curiosity about spirituality and the subtleties of the human body. While Christine took to physical postures, Crystal took to internal ones: practising meditation and exploring the body's subtle energy channels and traditional healing methods.

Through deep practice she experienced a profound sense of inner peace, confidence and clarity, and learned to influence her heart rate through breath — which she later realised was known as breathwork, or pranayama. Feeling that the body held secrets that could only be unlocked through deep harmony with the self, nature and the greater source, she studied the energy systems (chakras, nadis and the nervous system), herbal medicine and Samkhya philosophy.

In her spare time, Crystal can be found hiking, or in a quiet place studying and meditating over Eastern philosophical texts.

Now, after years of spiritual cultivation and deep practice that took them from practising as therapists to managing ashrams to facilitating workshops, courses and retreats, Christine and Crystal continue to learn, develop and share ancient wisdom combined with modern science in corporate, wellness and spiritual settings.

At Chu Yoga, we believe that all beings deserve to live their fullest, happiest and most purposeful life; one that is deeply aligned with our true inner Selves (the atman in traditional texts). Chu Yoga is a space to reconnect with yourself, a space to understand the open secrets of nature, body, mind and soul, and a space to remember to always expand to meet and exceed your hidden potential.
