Rooted & Radiant - Yoga with the Flowing German

Hi, I’m Elena, a passionate yoga teacher based in Cape Town. I have been teaching yoga for 5+ years now and through The Flowing German, I bring together my love for movement and mindfulness, offering therapeutic, power and Vinyasa yoga to support your well-being from the inside out.

I’m a 500-hour certified yoga teacher specialized in Vinyasa and therapeutic yoga, with a master’s degree in psychology that deepens my holistic approach. My journey includes a 200-hour multistyle yoga teacher training in Dharamshala, India, and a 300-hour therapeutic yoga training through a school based in Rishikesh.

My passion lies in using yoga as a tool for building strength, increasing flexibility (mind & body ;-)), and supporting healing. By blending ancient yogic wisdom with evidence-based psychological insights, I guide you in cultivating a deeper connection to yourself. My absolute favorite is building a wholesome morning routine with my students, something they usually think cannot be squeezed into their already busy days..but you might be surprised.

For me, yoga is about flow, presence, and growth. I love helping others to reconnect with what they truly love and listen to their inner guides . Let’s explore this journey together.
