Cherryl Duncanis an internationally trained Yoga teacher known for her strong energy, impassioned expressiveness, and inspirational style of teaching that integrates the physical as well as the spiritual aspects of Yoga.
She is committed to keeping spirituality an intrinsic part of her classes and she makes no excuses for holding true to the original path of Yoga (Union with the divine source). She is a certified Jivamukti teacher having completed her training in New York under the guidance of her loved teachers Sharon Gannon and David Life. Her classes are given in a dynamic, flowing style and students are encouraged to engage their minds (as well as their bodies) with specific mental intention. This formula ensures that her classes are both physically and intellectually challenging! Her deepest desire is for the liberation of all beings (liberation from unhappiness, illness and suffering) and she has dedicated a lot of her energy to raising awareness and campaigning for those beings kept in captivity and used for food. As a global traveller, she has sought teachers from India, America and Hong Kong and she is especially inspired by Tibetan Heart Yoga and Buddhism.
Cherryl has written articles for magazines such as Yoga awakening and is the creator and founder of Living Yoga Johannesburg. She has also posed for a series of Naked Yoga posters in an attempt to raise money for her Animal Liberation cause.
