Yoga in the Park - Johannesburg

Most amazing experience to join Steven from Yoga Works on our 5 day Mindfulness hike in the Greater Kruger Area. Wonderful mindfulness guide and yoga teacher!! I also subscribed to his online yoga classes so that I am able to bring his wise and soothing guidance into my home practice.

These are the best yoga classes for all levels- with careful consideration towards each individual practice. Steven is kind and intuitive, guiding everyone through the most incredible flowing session each time. I highly recommend Yoga Works.

Such a beautiful experience to do yoga in our gorgeous park, and now that we can’t go there, so kind to give us a class at home. It was a real reset and relief. Just for an hour I didn’t feel so alone even though we are in isolation.

Thanks for the free/pay what you can online yoga classes. I did my first one today and really enjoyed it, especially during this lockdown period. This is really a kind gesture which I’m sure many people appreciate 🙏🏼

After a busy week in the hustle-and-bustle of Johannesburg, I craved nothing more to move my body and be immersed in nature. The Yoga Works Yoga-in-the-Park at Emmarentia Dam proved the perfect opportunity for this. Upon joining the 30 or so Yoga in the Park group members, I was greeted with friendly smiles and a bright yoga mat. What followed was a 90 minute yoga flow class, kicking off with a gentle warm up, core work, active sequences with standing and balancing poses, and concluding with a final relaxation session. From downward dogs to curved cobras, I was pleasantly surprised at what my body was able to achieve when guided correctly. It was clear that any age and strength level was welcome, with a separate class being conducted not far from us for kid yoga! The glistening Emmarentia dam proved the ideal studio for a yoga class focused on the practice of mindfulness. The 9am timing was perfect with the sun’s rays lightly warming my body as I strengthened and lengthened under the guidance of international yoga master Steven. This is a definite new element to my weekly routine - absolute bliss!

Steven's positive personality and approach to life is contagious. I may feel sluggish and overwhelmed when I start his class but by the end I'm light as a feather - filled to the brim. He knows how to help you stretch and strengthen your body while at the same time easing your mind. wonderful yogi!
