As a high level executive, Chris has a consistently full work schedule but still manages to maintain an extremely active lifestyle, spend quality time with his family and follow a nourishing wholefoods diet. Somehow in his busy schedule Chris works out everyday (some days twice) and goes on regular surfing trips and the occasional heli-skiing trip all while running one of Australia’s largest boardsports retail brands.

Yoga at Lunge according to Frank
Frank, a regular Lunge yogi since 2005, avoided crippling back surgery at 18 and these days experiences zero back pain at 62.
Regular golf, racket ball, soft sand runs and long walks? No issue whatsoever.
The evolution of Yoga for Surfers at Lunge Yoga and Health
Yoga for Surfers’ humble beginnings
13 years ago back in 2002; Louisa founded Lunge Yoga for Surfers in Manly at Queenscliff Surf Club. While Louisa was embarking on her solo-professional teaching career she began working with a small group of friends, helping them to repair their surfing and other sport-related injuries. In just a short time, her friends were feeling stronger, healthier in general and some were getting back in the water and surfing better.
Yoga and weight loss
Yoga has been a great way of ironing out my body’s creaks from becoming more sedentary. I hadn’t realised that I could regain a better body shape by doing yoga more regularly. I had put on a few kilos, looking after family and becoming more deskbound with my publishing career, but I started attending classes at Lunge yoga that a friend recommended. My initial participation was attending one class a week, but after some time, I had a goal to get fitter and help improve my health. I especially wanted to help work on niggling back pain.
