ABOUT
My name is Bongekile Nguza and I was born in Pietermaritzburg, KwaZulu Natal. I relocated to Johannesburg in 2009 to pursue studies in Office Administration at Vaal Technikon and I graduated in 2012 with a Certificate in Office Administration. My cousin’s interest in yoga, sparked my own and we attended classes regularly at the 4Living Guesthouse. I moved back to KwaZulu Natal in 2014, however my love for yoga stayed with me and I kept in touch with Yoga4Alex throughout my stay at home. I returned to Johannesburg in 2015 and continued with my practice and started training to be a Kundalini Yoga teacher, which I completed in June 2017. I completed training as a Kiddies Yoga instructor in 2017. Since 2016, I have been pursuing training in my first love, which is drama, at the Market Theatre Lab. Over and above that I have done the following courses to enhance my effectiveness as a yoga teacher:

- Emotional Freedom Technique (EFT)/Tapping with Pritam Khalsa 
- Balance the mind with Tatjana Hayward 
- Beyond addiction with Ita Roussos 
- Transactional Analysis with Karin Pratt

In 2017 I was part of the Yoga4Alex Team that gave daily classes to Grades 11 and 12 in the 5 high schools in Alexandra, where we reached over 2,000 learners each week for a period of 6 weeks. I taught Kundalini Yoga at Two High Schools in Alexandra over 4 years. My classes had an average of 20 students per class.

Due to the love and passion for yoga myself and my partners in 2021 we have decided to open our own company (WeflowFoundation)that offers, inter Alia Kids yoga, Wellness, health, community. Adults yoga and Mentorship.
