Andrea White
About:
Andrea is a Well Woman Yoga Therapist and Menstruality Leader. Her teachings focuses on cyclical living, self acceptance and empowering women of all ages. She teaches classes, workshops, courses and retreats in Well woman yoga, Prenatal Yoga, Postnatal & Baby Yoga, Menstruality, Cycle Awareness, Self-Care and Female Empowerment.
"My passion is to empower and support others to connect with their own inner wisdom, find their own personal healing journey and inner power. Using compassion, creativity and authenticity, I aspire to help you create nurturing awareness to yourself and your life."
Andrea originally trained in Ashtanga Vinyasa in 2009 in Thailand which set her on her teaching career. She loved the dedication and authenticity of Ashtanga but her body sometimes didn’t agree especially at certain times of the month. She saw this in many female students too.
After training in London with Uma Dinsmore-Tuli in ‘Postnatal and baby yoga’, Andrea was awakened to the world of honouring the body she had. This was deeply profound in self acceptance and feeling rejuvenated by subtle feminine practices. Andrea has followed Uma’s work over the last 10 years training in also pregnancy and well woman yoga.
"I love guiding women through fertility, pregnancy and into motherhood as well as supporting women as they move through their menstrual cycles and into menopause.
As a mother to a young toddler. I understand the need for flexibility and importance of bringing yoga and self care into your life. "
Andrea is proud that she is the first to bring Well Woman Yoga and Menstruality to South Africa. In addition she holds monthly Women's Circles, courses in Self Care as well as Mentoring for Menstrual cycle health and awareness.
