Yoga for Hope Sponsorship

My name is Buhle Ndawonde, and I live in Diepkloof, Soweto. As a recovering addict growing up in the townships, I believe that our kids need role models and the right guidance to help us navigate our world. I believe I was born to heal others, and I found that I can be of service to humanity through yoga.
Yoga helped me with healing spiritually, mentally, and physically as well. I would love to help heal people through yoga, as I know first-hand how it has worked wonders in my own personal journey to self-discovery on the road to recovery. Due to bad life choices and finding myself abusing substances, I went into rehab, and I was chosen to facilitate our yoga classes.
I would love to attend this training, as I feel there's a need in the townships that are plagued with depression and addiction. Yoga therapy will help manage our day-to-day struggles. Through these teachings, I'm able to ground myself and find the faith within to make it through. Community building and outreach will allow us to pay it forward to those who need it most. These funds will cover in-depth training. Each module weaves together perspectives of Yogic philosophy and Western science to create a future where the intermingling of indigenous healing systems and contemporary healing systems takes place for the greatest good. Every module contains foundational (theory and philosophy) knowledge and application methods (how to use the theory and philosophy to heal illness) embedded within it.

I really enjoyed sharing my story, we gravitate to stories, we relate and see ourselves in them.

We are actualizing our vision.
We need have to have a space to work out this vision of where we want to be, how we want to be. Who we want to be.
Culture requires space. thank you for answering the call and making all this happen.

I will be teaching in Switzerland for the summer in collaboration with as I get back into the flow of things, this is happening at the right time as I explore bringing more African traditions into my teaching, as a former dj I always found that dance played an important role in my life, all i wanted to do was dance to release and dormant energy or emotions and when I found Yoga they met in the form of chanting , however I would later experience dancing with tribal African sounds and how deep into myself I would go internally , this is how the Afro Movement Yoga came about for me. Think of how you feel after a good dance off, now add meditation into that and voila...

The goal of both music and meditation is to create a powerful and positive shift in our mental state. Music is a reliable source of transformational experience for many, and we are attracted to music for the same reasons that meditators meditate. Music and meditation both allow a fuller and richer experience of our emotions: They stop our incessant and often negative mental chatter and offer us an opportunity to inhabit the present moment more fully and meaningfully. These are all important for good health and happiness in human beings.

I will also be talking about creating spaces for the African Diaspora and why it's important and how we can make it possible for our communities.

So catch me teaching Yoga and Afro Dance Meditation while I'm in Laussane, I will also be giving a few free Yoga Classes in and around Lausanne.

It's been a min, been hibernating on myself, gathering strength for the next phase of my life.
Visualising where I want to be, the work I want to do, this is an exciting and scary time for me. But I'm loving how alive I feel.
