Louise Thompson is a life coach, yoga teacher and corporate escapee. Born in England, Louise moved here in 2004 and became the first Certified Martha Beck Coach in New Zealand. She also has a B Sc. Honours degree in Psychology and is trained in Myers-Briggs Personality typing.
In 2005 Louise trained to be a yoga teacher with the Sivananda Yoga Vedanta Centre and now runs classes at her Auckland Positive Balance studio. She teaches yoga so that others can experience the benefits in mind, body and soul. Louise expanded Positive Balance in 2010 to offer wider wellbeing services, in addition to the yoga classes. She now shares her knowledge in the areas of Life Coaching, Weight Loss Coaching and Career Coaching.
Having worked in numerous senior commercial roles in the newspaper and magazine industry for 17 years both here and in the UK, Louise knows all about the challenges of corporate life. At age 37, she collapsed at her desk and ended up bedridden with extreme fatigue for many months. She worked through a series of life-coaching techniques to heal her body and mind, and now has a happier, more balanced, more energetic life than ever.
Louise lives in Auckland with her husband Forsyth and three cats. Her mission in life is to show others the secrets to living their best life.
