Hannah
For Hannah, yoga is more than time on the mat — it is a way of moving through the world. A Minnesota native currently based in New Zealand, she is returning to a community that already feels like home after teaching here last year.
Hannah completed her yoga teacher training in Rishikesh, India in 2023 and has since taught yoga in Indonesia, Minnesota, and New Zealand. Alongside her teaching, she is a passionate solo traveller who has backpacked through 17 countries, practicing yoga in each one and gathering inspiration that she weaves into her classes.
Her classes are rooted in vinyasa-style yoga, connecting breath to movement and guiding students toward that effortless “flow state,” where the mind quiets and the body moves with intention.
Off the mat, you’ll usually find Hannah reading a good book, surfing, painting, working in the garden, or having a proper boogie.
Hannah teaches all levels, from complete beginners to experienced yogis, and her goal is always to create a welcoming space where everyone feels supported and empowered. She is overjoyed to be back sharing yoga with the Raglan community.
Abby
Yoga, to Abby, is an illuminated path to the Self. It is a gateway to understanding our divine essence and highest truth. Through moving with the wisdom of the eight limbs of yoga, she recognizes that everything we do is in preparation for this arrival home. After formally completing her training, Abby feels as though she has walked this path before; that she knew of this lifestyle long before she had the words to describe it. She remains forever a student of yoga and of this earth, and holds this philosophy as the greatest tool in her life for cultivating equanimity and understanding. She is beyond grateful to be a vessel in sharing this truth.
Abby completed her yoga teacher training in 2025 in Tofino, British Columbia, Canada. Teaching primarily in a vinyasa style, she integrates pranayama and dhyana into each class, offering opportunities to move through both body and mind in devotion toward samadhi.
Abby’s love for creating music, art, and poetry has deeply influenced the way she facilitates classes and welcomes in intention. She feels deeply blessed to be welcomed into the Raglan community and to openly share her authentic truth.
