Yoga Lova

After 2 years of study, practice, teaching, growth and countless hours on the mat, I am so grateful to officially be a Level 2 Iyengar Yoga Teacher.
This journey has reminded me that yoga is never a solo endeavour. It is built on the guidance of teachers, the support of friends, the encouragement of community, and the willingness to keep learning.

A huge thank you to my teacher, mentor and dearest friend, Carla Rech, for guiding me to this point on every single level.
Thank you also to Dize Watson for her guidance and generosity along this journey. Thanks as well to Yvonne, Rhonwen, Paula, Carla and the assessment committee for their endless hours of work and dedication that have helped all of us reach this point.
And what a privilege it has been to share this journey with Allison Van Veijerenx and Lizzy Ntuli. We have been a wonderful team, supporting, encouraging and learning alongside one another.
To Brendi and my beautiful Yoga Lova community — thank you for standing by my side over these past few weeks, listening to endless discussions about finals, assessment sequences and yoga philosophy!
Feeling deeply grateful today to be part of the Iyengar Yoga community. This is not an end point, but the continuation of a lifelong journey of learning.
🙏❤️

Standing tall, moving with intention.

This week’s focus is Standing Poses, the foundation of a strong and balanced practice. Through grounding, alignment, and stability, we cultivate strength from the ground up while creating space for greater awareness in both body and mind.

A reminder that sometimes the most powerful growth comes from simply learning to stand steady.

See you on the mat🩷🧘‍♀️

• Intentional, Grounded, Aligned, Stillness •
The four pillars of our studio🧘‍♀️🧘‍♀️ A space designed to slow down the noise, reconnect to your body, and move with purpose. Every class is an invitation to breathe deeper, soften inward, and return to yourself — stronger, calmer, and more centred than before.

✨ Final Fridays are Restorative✨
A gentle invitation to slow down, breathe deeply, and restore before the weekend begins. Join Nadine this Friday morning from 7–8am for a calming, restorative practice. Rest your body, soul, and mind. 🤍 Book now via Octiv or Discovery, before all mats are taken!!
