In case you ever wondered what yoga teachers / Thai massage therapists do every day! This is a typical week in my life.

We don't live in a bubble. Although yoga gives us a sense of calm and sanctuary, we can't deny that the world is in a mess.

Our yoga practice and the sense of community thst classes create are more needed than ever.

But we can't deny the fact that the escalated violence and abuse of power by thoughtless politicians goes completely against the principle of ahimsa, one of the central precepts of yoga.

This is the concept of non-violence that governs the way yoga practitioners behave towards other human beings and the way we treat our own bodies.

Can we pretend its not happening? That we don't feel powerless in the face of this chaos?

When we recognise that we are all interconnected, yoga and politics can't be separated.

Instead of wobbling in a balancing pose for a few seconds, using a wall as support can allow us to hold the same pose for a few minutes.

Our muscles work for longer to hold us in position and we need to focus our minds for an extended period, so we build our stamina. We also get the feel of the pose without struggling not to fall over.

We feel safe there, we can breathe for a while and our brains start to associate that balancing pose with an enjoyable experience rather than something scary.

Half moon pose (ardha chandrasana) can be supported in a multitude of ways, with each variation giving us a subtly different awareness and sensation.

I love using the wall in my classes for all of these reasons. Join me on Mondays and Wednesdays or visit my membership site to find an on-demand yoga package to support your home practice.

My Yoga Journey

I was drawn to yoga in my teens because I felt it would focus and calm my mind for studying at school. It became a constant that accompanied me through university. At that point I was introduced to Scaravelli-inspired yoga in Brighton. It resonated so deeply with my whole being, like a sigh of relief for my body. This was a practice that embraced our imperfections, allowed creative exploration, but most importantly prioritised what felt right above achieving a perfect shape in space.

After graduation I immediately embarked on a yoga teacher training and have been following this calling ever since. After moving back to South Africa at age 29 I started teaching a weekly class at first in Storms River. I have now been teaching yoga in beautiful Plett since 2008.

In 2009 I went to Thailand and trained in Thai Yoga Massage. This has been a wonderful complement to yoga. I find I understand the body more deeply with touch and through movement. Balancing and working with Sen, Thai energy lines, has added a whole dimension to my practice. This gentle dance of therapist and receiver can give the calm, blissful experience of yoga to those who, for whatever reason, dont go to classes.

Aerial Yoga was a new passion that I discovered in 2015 and have been teaching for a couple of years. How incredible to feel the spine elongate and release through the support of this beautiful fabric. It makes once inaccessible poses very tangible and brings in a new sense of movement and momentum. Students have often exclaimed: “I feel like a kid in a playground!”
