Ready to level up your practice? Whether you are an artist, a corporate group, or our country’s next top athlete, yoga has the potential to improve your experience and performance. When it comes to climbing, yoga helps with flexibility, strength and most importantly, our breath.
Through regular practice and thoughtfully set intention, you will find your own benefit. I offer group yoga classes at Cape Town’s top climbing gyms or private sessions held in nature or at your own home.
About
I am a yoga instructor offering private and drop in classes in Cape Town. My understanding of human biology, Vinyasa yoga, and my passion for rock climbing guide my practice to strengthen and find balance.
BSc.
Fascinated by human biology, sports, and healthy living, I studied a BSc. majoring in Human biology, Psychology and Microbiology. These crucial years of study grounded my belief in the benefit of activity and movement.
Yoga
Completing my 500 hours teacher training in Vinyasa yoga prepared me for my role as an instructor. The poses, or Asana, are a physical moving and breathing practice of mobility. I dive into more about yoga on my blog.
Schedule a Private Class
Outdoors
In Nature
Allowing us to move with the sun on our skin, to feel the breeze across our hair, and to breathe fresh air. From the mountain, to the leafy parks, let us meet and practice somewhere public
At a Retreat
Practising yoga at a retreat in Rocklands is a unique opportunity you’ll want to try. The natural setting and the combination of activities make it one of my favourite experiences. Doing yoga at retreats, festivals, and trail running weekends/races is what I look forward to.
Indoors
Yoga Studio in a Climbing Gym
I offer group classes at the top climbing gyms in Cape Town. You can drop-in for a class, or purchase a membership at the respective gym.
