Gather, Connect, & Celebrate


I have spent my whole life involved exploring the relationship between the body, mind, heart and spirit sheaths. Movement and the body/mind/ heart as an embodied practise of transformation has been the central thread of my life tapestry.

Initially my training as a dancer turned choreographer, yoga teacher and Yoga Therapist, evolved into working for a decade as the Movement Lecturer at the Drama School, UCT. I established the Santa Sarana Yoga Centre in Hout Bay and was based there for 15 years, now living in the little village of Mcgregor where I have opened the Stillness Centre.

A few years ago I had the wonderful opportunity of working closely with Donna Farhi, completing her intensive advanced Teacher Training course in Wales and then worked as her assistant in Frankfurt focusing on the fundamental importance of the SI (sacro-iliac) joint as a basis for asana practise. Her ground breaking approach has informed much of my work.

Buddhism continues to be a powerful influence - having been seeped in Buddhist practise and having done many retreats over the last 20 years with very fine teachers - with much gratitude to Thanissara, Kittisaro and Ringu Tulku.
