Cassandra has been practicing yoga for close to 30 years beginning her journey with Mysore Ashtanga Yoga and teaching Hatha, Yin and Slow Flow since 2015. Since completing her teacher training 9 years ago, she has continued to study, and over the years has been fortunate enough to train with some of the world’s top teachers including Rod Stryker, Bernie Clarke and Kavitha Chinnayain. Since 2020, her studies have focussed primarily on Ayurveda including Ayurvedic Yoga trainings with Brad Hay and Ayurvedic Therapy training with Lydia Rega.
She feels that the West is often so focused on movement based yoga with most classes focussing on only asana or postures, that much of the depth and real meaning of this ancient Vedic practice has been watered down until it’s barely recognisable. She is therefore committed to teaching all three ancient streams of Vedic knowledge – Ayurveda, Yoga and Tantra (not the weird neo-Western sex based version, but the householders path of spiritual awakening). When they are weaved together as they should be and as they are intended, true magic happens.
This is what she wishes to share, so that we can all grow, become more aware of ourselves and our connection to each other and all things, and perhaps most importantly to remember who we truly are – brighter than 10,000 suns – fierce, courageous and powerful as well kind, loving and full of grace and sweetness.
