About:

Hanson has been practising yoga since the age of 10, when he first discovered pranayama (breathwork)—a journey that grew into a lifelong dedication to teaching yoga. As a Yoga Acharya specialising in Shastanga and Kriya Yoga, he combines traditional yogic practices with modern teaching methods, and is also certified in Pole Yoga and Rope Yoga.

His background in nursing, with experience in cardiovascular, respiratory, and neurological care, gives him a unique perspective on movement, breathing, and overall wellbeing. By integrating evidence-based healthcare with ancient Vedic practices, Hanson helps students improve mobility, manage stress, and support conditions such as anxiety, insomnia, sleep apnoea, and emotional wellbeing through breathwork and yoga.

Before teaching yoga full-time, Hanson served as a Nursing Administrator, Trainer, Educator, and Associate Lecturer at Curtin University, while contributing to the establishment of Ng Teng Fong General Hospital. Today, he combines his clinical expertise with decades of yoga practice to help people build healthier bodies, calmer minds, and a deeper connection with their wellbeing.
