Fiona was born, and grew up, in South Africa.
It was there that she discovered yoga through an old book of her grandfathers in
1994, and this marked the beginning of her exploration into the limitless world of yoga and holistic well being.
Through her profession as a teacher, she was motivated by her desire to support children with learning and behavioural problems, and to inquire more deeply into yoga and body work.
She left South Africa in 1996, and moved to the UK where she studied the Bowen technique, and continued practicing various styles of yoga, through different teachers. She discovered how the body work and yoga practice started to leave an imprint on all aspects of her life, deepening her love and respect for life, herself and others.
She now teaches yoga to adults and children primarily with the inspiration of vinyasa free flow.
She trained in Vinyasa Yoga at the Yogaloft in Cologne and is a registered Yoga Alliance member.
This flow feels, to her, like a creative unfolding of ones Self through the practice.
The fluidity of the vinyasa mirrors our daily lives – dealing with constant change, enriching and challenging surprises and humble beginnings.
More about Vinyasa Yoga:
The meaning of Yoga is to unify - that is, to unify all of what we consist of into wholeness. In the practice of Vinyasa Yoga, we achieve this unity through the unfolding of a clearly outlined sequence of poses, linked by the breath.
The cycle of the vinyasa mirrors our lives and brings us into a more balanced state, through the use of our body movements, the breath, sound and silence. There are no special requirements to join this flow - just be open and willing.
