I have been practicing and teaching yoga for more than 15 years. It has helped me in my life in so many ways: it healed my back, improved my posture and breathing and made me calmer and more centred.
In a way yoga practice feels like coming back home, into a place of calmness and peace within me.
At the same time yoga allowed me to experience a greater sense of connection to the outside world: nature and people.
My teaching approach has been influenced by Vanda Scaravelly and Donna Farhi
as well as the Shivananda and Integral Yoga traditions.
In 2009 I completed my Yoga Teacher Training with Unity School of Yoga and for many years have been a student of Marc J Aquaviva, participating in a number of teacher training and practitioner courses.
In the recent years I have been exploring a variety of methods of regulating subtle energy flow in the body: prana or chi (in Chinese medicine). I have been learning from Donna Eden and Lauren Walker many hands on techniques that can enable us to balance energy flow through the subtle channels. These techniques can be successfully integrated into yoga practice.
Other energy healing modalities that I use in my yoga classes are: Chi gung, Do-ing, pressure point massage and EFT (Emotional Freedom Technique) tapping.
My yoga practice is continuously developing and it is reflected in the way I teach. I’m very grateful to all my teachers and students who over the years have enable me to learn and evolve as a human being.
I am a member of Embody and am fully insured to teach Yoga. I have done training in Trauma-sensitive yoga. I also hold a First Aid Certificate.
