About Eon Swiegers
I’m Eon, an experienced registered yoga teacher 500 hours (E-RYT500). 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.
As an alignment-based yoga teacher, I’ve trained Olympic gold medalists, professional golfers, ballerinas, competitive horse riders, track and field Olympiads, and the South African Cricket team. I run my YTT200 yoga alliance accredited school (est. 2016) in Austin Texas, 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!
