Lynne Abrahamson and Teaching Yoga to Over 60’s

24/01/2024

An Interview with Nina Saacks

In this conversation we go back… back to the early days of my Yoga Journey as I get a chance to hangout with the beautiful and delightful Lynne Abrahamson.

Lynne shares her journey – from practicing Iyengar Yoga for 20 years, to exploring Hatha Yoga with my first Yoga Teacher Joke Spijker at Shanti Cottage in Muizenberg (unfortunately not open anymore due to her passing), to having her horizons expanded as she travelled to Calgary and met some amazing 60+ year old Yogis.

We explore many themes in our conversation, but the one that stands out the most is the fact that you can start Yoga at any age, at any stage of your life – it’s never too late.

You may just need to find the right place and the right teacher. Enjoy our heartfelt conversation, our laughs and reminiscing.
