Yoga with Mexi is a yoga teachings company operating in Limpopo founded in 2018 by Melba Tsholofelo Ramadibane.
Tsholofelo started the company when she was diagnosed with clinical depression and she says that yoga helped her cope with the mental health illness. With yoga Tsholofelo hopes to help individuals that suffer from similar mental health issues and to get more people excited about yoga and aware of the health benefits it has to offer. With the help of social media, lets people know the positive effects yoga has on the mind and body “to be “good” at yoga you have to be your messy human self, open to work through stuff and willing to take a moment to focus on your breath”.
Two of the most crucial things in business she says is consistency and patience, “you have to be consistent with your practice and patient with yourself”. Being dedicated and open-minded is Tsholofelo’s secret to excellent client service, she furthermore explains that it is crucial to be dedicated in your craft and to be as open-mined as possible to everyone’s needs, “clients will come to you with different things and, you have to be able assist them”.
Tsholofelo’s motivation is hearing positive feedback from her clients and knowing how much she has helped them cope with their mental health issues. She hopes to continue doing so in her first ever yoga studio in Limpopo, which she is planning of opening in the next 5 years or less.
