The interlocutory injunction was refused because the plaintiff failed to show an arguable case that the restraint was reasonable to protect a legitimate interest: there was insufficient evidence that a yoga master in Hong Kong commands client loyalty; the 3 mile geographical restriction and the 1 year post-employment prohibition were excessive and arbitrary in relation to the asserted interest; the prohibition on share ownership did not protect the legitimate interest; and the defects could not be cured by excision alone.
