Marlborough Yoga Retreats and Events was founded by Anne Brooker after moving to Marlborough in 2011. Born in the UK, Anne spent 20 years working and living in Asia, mostly Thailand, Hong Kong and Japan. Having a background in wellbeing and fitness she was drawn to, and fell in love with yoga, initially to work on muscle tightness and some injuries.
Feeling there was a gap in the Marlborough region for a yoga retreat she decided to organise her first weekend event inviting four teachers. Eleven years on, many retreats have taken place, hosted by New Zealand and International teachers. The retreats incorporate different aspects of yoga and tools to promote a healthy and positive lifestyle. We showcase beautiful venues and stunning scenery around Marlborough and sometimes further afield including the Tasman region and also Rarotonga. These events have brought together communities, local businesses and life-long friendships have developed and flourished.
Anne continues her own yoga journey completing 200 hour plus 50 hour teacher training courses with retreat hosts and maintains a desire to deepen her knowledge with further courses ahead.
