About Eon Swiegers
I’m Eon, an experienced registered yoga teacher 500 hours (E-RYT500) and a teacher trainer. After completing my two degrees I was immediately drawn to the health, wellness, and fitness industry which in turn led me down my yoga journey. For the past 15 years, I’ve trained and focused on vinyasa, ashtanga, alignment-based movement, posture corrections, and wellness solutions that promote a healthy balanced body and mind.
I have trained Olympic gold medalists, professional golfers, dancers, gymnasts, horse riders, track and field Olympiads, the South African Cricket squad, corporates, embassies, and government. I run my 200- and 300-hour yoga alliance accredited school (est. 2016) in Austin and Cedar Park, Texas, as well as Cape Town, and Pretoria, South Africa. I have traveled across 20 countries to teach workshops and loved all the experiences that have allowed me to share specialized strengthening, mobility, healing, and recovery practices.
I love passing on honest advice & knowledge, making yoga accessible for students of all abilities, and providing detailed adjustments to deepen the practice and optimize body movement through correct science-based alignment. I love helping others feel like their best selves. I hope to see you on the mat soon!

Completing a 300-hour training counts in a student’s favor as more time is spent with a master trainer. To help our studio takes several measures:
- We schedule community classes taught by our graduates.
- We give priority to our graduates as substitute teachers for classes taught by other teachers when they need substitute teachers.
- When a teaching position becomes available, given everything else being equal among all applicants, our graduates are given priority for the position.
Even though we strongly encourage students to attend all classes, there is an online YTT200 program on the EonYoga platform to catch up on workshops and lectures in the event that a student miss hours that need to be made up.
There will be a set of recommended books and reading assignments. If you like to own the books you will need to buy them at your own cost.
