Yogafundi Defined
Namaste (Num-uh-stay)
Welcome YogaFundi Friends
I wanted to pay homage to my birthplace and my roots, which are deeply and firmly seeded in Africa, while still keeping with the age-old tradition of India and Yoga.
Yoga, (Yo-gaa), which is a Sanskrit word, translates to the union of mind, body and spirit. Through Pranayama (breath work) and Asana (postures), the union of Yoga manifests to become a physical practice of enlightenment.
The word, "Fundi," (pronounced Foon-dy), is derived from the Nguni tribe (Southern Africa), used to describe someone who has expertise in a particular field or vocation.
Nguni Group of Languages: umfundisi: a teacher. (South Africa, Zimbabwe, Bostwana, Namibia)
