Charmelle is a devoted practitioner and teacher of Ashtanga Yoga. Her teachings are delivered with compassion, clarity and attention to detail. Charmelle is deeply respectful of the Ashtanga Yoga practice, as she believes that the many benefits of this method are available to all students with an interest and eagerness to learn.

Assisting in the main shala in Mysore has given Charmelle the opportunity to work with hundreds of students from all over the world, while receiving close and direct guidance from Sharath Jois on when and how to offer her assistance. Charmelle carefully observes the individual body of each student, and acts with awareness of their mental and emotional state, to connect with them and inspire the openness that allows the practice to reveal it’s magic. Having opened and run Mysore programs in Bali and Dubai, Charmelle is grateful to now have the honour of holding this space and offering the Ashtanga practice to the yogis in Cape Town.
