About the yoga instructor
Magenta starting practicing yoga in 2013 whilst recovering from a serious dancing injury. She started her teaching journey in 2018 by completing her 200-hour teacher training and has since completed an additional 300-hour advanced training, both at The Shala Cape Town Yoga School.
By fusing knowledge gained through studying a physiology course with her yoga framework, she offers classes that consist of accessible movements that aim to affect both the physical and subtle body. Her teaching focuses on alignment and precision to ensure safe practice whilst accommodating different body types, needs, and capabilities.
“Whether you practice regularly or are embarking on a new journey, yoga is about practicing intuitively, consciously with breath, finding the tools that work for you, and integrating them into daily life,” says Magenta.
