E-RYT500, YACEP
After four years of committed practice across a range of yoga traditions, including Ashtanga, Vinyasa, and Iyengar yoga, Tamsin completed her first teacher training in 2004 with Louisa Sears at Yogarts. She then undertook an intensive two-year Bihar teacher training with Carly Louw at Yoga Connection in Pretoria, and later travelled to Kerala, India, to study Sivananda asana, chanting, puja, and philosophy. In 2009, she completed further teacher training with Shimon Ben Avi, followed by her 300hr Advanced Yoga Teachers Training with Patrick Creelman and Rinat Perlman in Hong Kong between November 2016 and March 2018.
Her work is deeply rooted in yoga as a pathway for healing and repair on every level of being. She finds her most inspiring role in teaching on The Shala’s Teacher Training programmes, while workshops and courses often focus on lymphology and digestion. Tamsin opened The Shala – Cape Town Yoga School in 2007.
