Meeting at the Yoga Studio
Ian stumbled into Viv's hot yoga studio in January 2018, seeking flexibility and unknowingly finding love. Despite the sweltering 37-degree heat, he kept coming back, completing nearly 500 lessons in a year. By 2023, they weren't just friends but also partners in life and business, teaching side by side at the studio.
From Friends to Something More
Their first date, a wet and windy walk on Waihi beach with Ian's dog, Willow, solidified what they both felt brewing. It was a natural progression, with Ian feeling it especially during their long walks.
Love Blossoms
For Ian, being away in Bali for training made him realize the depth of his feelings. Viv, on the other hand, felt a growing love from the start, deepening with each passing day.
