Shona Vertue, Personal Trainer and Yoga Teacher, embodies an irresistible fusion - the ancient tranquillity of the Pacific Islands with a sun-kissed, Australian life of healthy, vigorous activity. Shona has trained as a classical dancer and elite gymnast, in strength and conditioning with world-renowned coaches and in yoga / meditation practice with acclaimed international teachers. In 2014 Shona moved from Australia to England, where she has helped the overstressed of London keep fit, unwind and spiritually evolve ever since. In 2015 Shona created a pre-flight yoga routine for London Gatwick Airport - still shown on screens across Gatwick's South Terminal. Shona fuses her expertise together in her teaching of The Vertue Method - combining yoga, weighted resistance training and meditation. Shona is now an ambassador for New Balance and teaches The Vertue Method in their flagship store in London.
