About Yownn Yoga

Bonolo PhaladzeBonolo is the founder of Yownn Yoga and a certified yoga teacher from One Yoga Thailand, with over 5 years of experience. She specializes in curating transformative yoga experiences, often in collaboration with like-minded businesses. Bonolo has successfully hosted multiple yoga safari retreats in various regions of Botswana.As a seasoned professional banker, Bonolo understands the high-pressure demands of modern life and the importance of unplugging to refresh and recharge. Whether you're looking to deepen your practice, experience the serenity of nature, or simply take a much-needed break, Yownn Yoga Safari is designed to help you unplug, refresh, and cultivate sustainable growth for both body and mind. Kristen KerecmanKristen took her first yoga class at 18 and was immediately drawn to the energy and rhythm of Jivamukti and Vinyasa. Through years of a fast-paced career, yoga became her medicine—a way to channel anxiety into movement, reset, breathe, and stay grounded. Over time, her practice has evolved—just like life. After earning her teacher certification in 2011, she taught on and off while working in communications and social impact, and living across the U.S., Southeast Asia, and now Southern Africa. These days, her focus is on slower, grounding practices that create space for stillness, restoration, and breath.She believes yoga offers what we so often forget to give ourselves: a moment of calm, a deeper breath, and the reminder that it’s okay to slow down.
