Gerdus Oosthuizen

Gerdus discovered yoga in 2007 during his university studies in South Africa. A deep calling drew him to that first practice; he has been a devoted student ever since. As with most, it started with Āsana. The aim was to touch his toes, but little did he know the practice would hold the key to understanding the nature of the self and the universe.

He holds deep gratitude to all the teachers who have shone light upon his path to liberation, especially Anja Kühnel, under whose guidance he is currently completing the Three Boons 500h mentorship program.

Gerdus is a multi-instrumentalist, film music composer, and a ceremonial musician, facilitating sound journeys and medicine music ceremonies with his associated collectives Astra Laguna, Keropii, and Soneiro Collective. He also produces dance music under the moniker Bummela. A bhakti at heart, Gerdus believes the highest function of music to be celebrating the wonder of creation, bringing us to the ultimate realisation of the non-dual nature of reality.
