Eleven years on, she runs her own classes at various venues in Johannesburg. She did classes for some years and in 2011 went to train as a yoga instructor at Africa Yoga in the Eastern Cape. She now teaches group classes, where she says she says she guides and encourages students to become conscious of their bodies and own their yoga practice.
