DUNCAN

Founder of HOV. Philosophy obsessed. Anatomy nerd. Music junkie. Vinyāsa addict. Lover of Meditation. Duncan is your loud, sometimes quiet, always vibrant yoga and conditioning teacher. With a background in dance, yoga, meditation and fitness since young, Duncan has been teaching for more than 15 years and runs yoga teacher trainings around the world.

Duncan noticed that he was strongest in his yoga practice (and his body felt the best) when he did specific forms of fitness in conjunction with his ashtanga vinyāsa practice. He created HOV to share his love for yoga and pilates based conditioning that strengthen and balance a yoga practice. Originally from Canada, Duncan now calls Byron Bay, Australia his home where he films all his online content and runs his advanced vinyāsa yoga teacher trainings.

WHAT PEOPLE ARE SAYING ABOUT DUNCAN...

"Call it a yoga crush at the highest level of ‘om’ if you will, and perhaps why it resonated with me above other moments of platonic amour is because meeting Duncan made me fall in love, not just with him, but with my yoga practice as well."

MEGHAN MARKLE - DUCHESS OF SUSSEX

"I love Duncan's intenso classes, not only are they an incredible workout but Duncan makes them so fun with his humour and impromptu dance parties. I have become so much stronger in my yoga practice, I held my first handstand yesterday!"

LEANA K - AUSTRALIA

" I started taking your amazing vinyasa classes in Toronto, and when you moved to Australia, I couldn't find a similar teacher. I was so excited when you launched HOV, because I love your vinyasa classes and now it feels like I get private lessons with you in my home."

MICHAEL C - CANADA

WHAT PEOPLE ARE SAYING ABOUT CASSIE...

"There are no words emotive enough to express the level of guidance, truth and support this woman encompasses. She is all heart. Intricate cueing, strong asana, genuine connection, light and funny... an essential experience.”

EVELYN S - AUSTRALIA

"Cassie's advanced vinyasa classes are so fun, and really smart. I have done some really cool things in her class that I didn't think I could do. Also, her practice is amazing, sometimes I just watch haha. I love her honesty and straight forwardness. "

TAMARA B - GERMANY

"Cassie's yin classes are out of this world - she knows so much about Chinese medicine and fascia. I learn so much in her classes, and don't even get me started on the wise philosophy she drops throughout class."
