Body, Mind, Breath
ॐ
Hello. I am Johann, and I love to share the understanding that when we manage our breath, we manage our lives. I will help you experience how your breath brings dynamic balance to your body and mind, and raise your quality of life. Then your breath can add punch to any activity, and unwind stress from everything you do – so that your breath is your direct route to high frequency living.
I joined the Real Success Network in December 2025. This our first online retreat of the year. Read more here.
“To be a human being is to be a breather. And breath has a direct route of influence over body and mind. Conscious breath helps ground body, mind, and breath integration into conscious living.” Read more about Body, Mind, Breath – for an understanding and practice.
All sessions are available online, and in-person at Johann’s studio with a sea view of Muizenberg Beach, Cape Town
About
I started my yoga practice in 1990. I am a Sivananda/Integral yoga therapy trained facilitator (200 hour teacher+300 remedial). My therapeutic yoga and creative way of being naturally flow together in my practice and training courses.
Yoga
My classes are accessible for beginners, but also include advanced practices that are simple to do. My ideal is an easy and effective practice, in understanding of yoga. This helps students of any level to leave a session feeling great, and grow a consistent, conscious way of everyday being, in body, and mind.
Music
Music for yoga and meditation to help create more expansive, focused states, and activate bodymind states of mindful awareness. Playlists with my compositions and performances may be streamed online on all the digital services. includes relaxing music, power flow yoga music, mantra and music for nidra. There is chill out music for yogi’s, surf music, and ambient music; tranquil, evocative or cinematic.
