My yoga journey started while studying a business science degree at UCT in 2001 when I attended integral hatha yoga classes with my parents at a small nearby yoga studio. I immediately fell in love with the practices on a physical, mental and emotional level and completed my teacher training in 2003 to further my interest and knowledge in the art. I had no intention of teaching, I was planning on going into the corporate world. Yoga had other plans for me and I’ve been teaching and traveling full time since 2004. My yoga journey and teaching has transitioned through many different phases but my true passion is gentle, slow, restorative and healing yoga. I seem to attract students who struggle with stress, anxiety, burn out, back problems and low self-esteem, all conditions I have journeyed through as well.

Teaching Experience

I truly believe that the universe guides you to where you are meant to be, and it did exactly that with my yoga journey. I had practiced and enjoyed many styles of yoga but when I discovered Hatha Yoga, I realised it was exactly what I always needed. Coming from a fast paced, stressful corporate environment, Hatha Yoga gave me the tools I needed to create calm, regain balance and focus, in my practice and in everyday life.
I enjoy sharing a traditional practice in an environment that cultivates self-acceptance, peace, and balance. A practice of gratitude.

Welcome to Sacred Spiral Yoga
Paul facilitates Yoga on a multi faceted level. Classes focus on Asana and Pranic Breathing and usually include Meditation and Sacred Sound.
Sacred Spiral Meditation is based in the Yogic technique of Samyama (Concentration - Dharana, Meditation - Dyhana, Absorption - Samhadi) to gain spiritual knowledge and bring one's life into a more harmonious alignment with one's soul and spirit.
The practice is available and suitable for all levels of abilities and age groups.
Sacred Spiral Asana is based in classical Yoga Postures and Sequences. Alignment and development of body awareness is key. Watch demonstrations by Paul Carlos of a beginner level sequence below.
From over 30 years of training in Tai Ji, Qi Gong and Yoga, Paul has developed a breathing system - 'Pranic Breathing' incorporating these disciplines with traditional Yogic Pranayama.
Deep Relaxation, Meditation and Contemplation is the main core practice of Sacred Spiral Yoga supported by Asana and Pranayama.
