Yin Yoga Africa was founded one morning in 2019, in the redwood forests of California, surrounded by friends, laughter and a lot of inspiration.
I was training with my mentors Paul and Suzee Grilley, founders of yin yoga, and the most awe-inspiring humans I have the pleasure of knowing and studying under. Their trainings for me were life-changing, often bringing together like-minded individuals that eventually grew to become part of my family. Together we spent time learning, growing and evolving into better human beings. Every time I left I felt so incredibly grateful and full of potential.
The yoga community is still growing and evolving in Africa and teacher trainings are few and far between. I set out to bridge that gap by bringing those experiences and that knowledge home. Yoga should be accessible to all, it should be functional and your practice, individual and ever evolving. What I offer are tools and techniques to help navigate this journey, some of which will be helpful, some not. Your job is to test these things for yourself and hopefully find some peace and ease along the way.
As Dr. Hiroshi Motoyama would say
”You must proceed with courage and self-confidence”
