Othene Munson

Experienced internationally recognized Registered Yoga Teacher E-RYT E500, Level 2 Usui Reiki Practitioner, Angel Therapy Practitioner®, and Celebrant. She brings a unique perspective and style of teaching to the practice of yoga, drawing upon her background as a corporate trainer, healthy lifestyle, fashion model and global yoga instructor. Othene began her practice at an early age in South Africa and has remained enthusiastic for 40 years to the teachings and linage of Krishnamacharya. She believes the physical postures of yoga (asana) help maintain a sense of youthfulness, health, and fitness and inner peace can be achieved with the practice of mediation and self-reflection. Othene is committed to all students, new or experienced who sincerely wish to dive deeper into their yoga journey to explore the many facets of yoga that will enhance their own lives and the lives of countless others.

She organizes and leads custom trips to Southern Africa for “Yoga on Safari”, a unique blend of playful touring, the beauty of her Mother City, authentic inquiry, and yoga practices.

Othene has been such a great inspiration to me in the 18 yrs  or so that I have been practicing yoga with her.  She is very knowledgeable and makes her classes fun and challenging.  Know matter who shows up she will modify the asana to your ability.  I’ve improved my practice through certification of her 200YTT program.
