Yoga Teacher – Reuben Murray

Who are you? Tell us a little about yourself and your story.

I’m a Runner, CrossFit enthusiast with a background in martial arts. When I was 18 I played Australian Rules Football for the Brisbane Lions Reserves following in my uncle’s footsteps who won a Brownlow Medal for Fitzroy. Due to some football injuries life took an unexpected turn and I ended up living In New York City for three years.

How and why did you choose to enter the world of Health, Wellness and Yoga?

I began studying Vipassana meditation and discovered Yin Yoga as I was rehabilitating from my ACL operation. I noticed that my knee was responding well to the long hold stretches that are accustomed in Yin, but I was also unlocking deeper parts of myself that were previously only accessible in deep meditation. This is when I knew I wanted to study Yoga so I could share this gift with others.
