    I attended a weekend yoga workshop with Monique about two years ago and really loved it. Her calm, encouraging approach is fantastic, and since attending I have wished she gave classes in the same town that I live in. So I am really pleased that I can enjoy the privilege of her online classes during the Covid Crises, she really explains everything so well. Thank you

    I have been doing Yoga with Monique for 6 years. I also attend all her Yoga Retreats. She is utterly dedicated and professional. I am profoundly grateful to her for introducing me to this life changing practice and for doing it with such gentleness, kindness and patience.
    Answer from Back to Wellness Iyengar Yoga on 11-05-2020:

    Monique is the best yoga teacher I have had. I've been lucky enough to be able to do online classes with her during the Covid19 lockdown and it has saved my sanity. She is professional, knowledgeable and passionate about her teaching. The thing I appreciate the most, is her attention to detail when doing a pose, making sure that you don't go beyond your ability and injure yourself. I come out of her class feeling like I have been turned inside out - in a good way!
    Answer from Back to Wellness Iyengar Yoga on 11-05-2020:
    Dear Claire, thank you so much for your lovely review. It is so wonderful that in among all the chaos, there have been opportunities to re-connect with people through the online yoga classes. In a sense yoga is uniting us, which is the meaning of yoga; to unite the body, mind and soul :-)

    Back to Wellness Iyengar Yoga with Monique
    I have been attending Monique's retreats for the last 6 years and since the lockdown I have been attending her online classes. Monique is an experienced, qualified and highly gifted teacher. She combines knowledge with compassion and is a sensitive and caring teacher. She is also rigorous and generous with her time and knowledge. Monique's classes benefit yoga students of all levels and her style of teaching is motivational and encouraging. I have benefited greatly from the retreats and now the online classes have been invaluable during a very challenging time. These classes have helped me remain grounded, productive and healthy during one of the worst crises in human history. A big, sincere thank you to Monique.
    Answer from Back to Wellness Iyengar Yoga on 11-05-2020:
    Namaste dear Sam, thank you so much for your amazing review. Thank you too for your commitment to yoga and your encouragement over the years. It was a real gift when you joined the first yoga retreat and I will always be grateful for your support and for introducing new people to the retreats. I am so pleased that the online yoga classes are helping you during this very difficult time and I look forward to continue to share yoga space with you, whether on retreats, through online classes or 'live' classes in Grahamstown/Makhanda. xx

    Yoga Experience with Monique
    I have been doing yoga for close to seven years now with back to wellness (Monique Weschta). It has changed my life completely from being a highly stressed tense and sometimes angry person to being calm, at peace and slow to anger. Retreats arranged by Monique or so intensive yet very restorative at the same time as she takes care of everyone's needs and wants. New people are welcomed and quickly encompassed by the group, made to feel welcome and encouraged to continue the yoga practise. I would recommend Monique as a teacher because of how she teaches, guides and cares. If you wanted to give yoga a try, give Monique a call and come to class it is magic.
    Answer from Back to Wellness Iyengar Yoga on 28-02-2020:
    Thank you so much for the wonderful review Ruth, I really appreciate all your kind words and salute you for your dedication to yoga and the changes you have made in your life. I look forward to many more years of sharing yoga space! xx
