About:

Nthupula has an embodied love and appreciation for yoga, having journeyed from a dramatically disconnected relationship to their body (not being 'athletic' or having an interest in physical movement) to a daily hot yoga practice as a qualified yoga teacher.

At the tender age of 17, Nthupula literally stumbled upon a gym yoga class, and has been lured into the life-altering experience of the incredible union of yoga's eight limbs for over 10 years  –   yoga has been the entrepôt for Nthupula to sit in (and lovingly heal) decades of trauma lodged into the body, and yoga continues to be an incredible container for play and growth.

Nthupula fundamentally understands (and appreciates) asana as non-performative and healing, for a sustained life practice, and loves to weave their intuition and innate gifts into a safe, evocative, and guided self-exploration for students of all bodies.
