Yoga
I've been practicing daily for 17 years, and share a weekly yoga stretching session..
Wednesdays at 6pm, at Kommetjie Wellness centre.
The practice is fairly vigorous, but accessible to anyone prepared to get sweaty, focusing on foundation awareness of strength, stretch and space.
My gateway teacher was Viktor van der Kleij, a Dutch Hatha yogi who shared a very deep and traditional understanding and practice of Yoga, and lit the fire!
I was then introduced the flowing Ashtanga style of Leora Liebovitz and her Teacher Shimon Ben Avi, from Israel.
In 2011 I completed a 200 hour Anusara teachers training with Patrick Creelman in Hong Kong.
Along the way i’ve had the pleasure of practicing with Dharma Mittra, Maty Ezraty, Andrei Ram, Rinat Perlman and many others, who have influenced my appreciation and purpose of yoga.
