I began practicing yoga in 2000 after relocating to London from my native Macedonia, but I only truly began to understand its power when I was diagnosed with breast cancer eight years later. I made a complete recovery and yoga was an integral part of the healing process, which took me to a higher holistic level.

In 2009 I travelled to India and completed Iyengar training at the Yoga Gang Centre founded by Swati and Rajiv Chanchani in Old Rajpur-Dehradun. This only invigorated my passion for yoga and I continued to study with many renowned teachers in a variety of styles. I have enjoyed learning from the best. Most recently I was certified in Vinyasa Flow RYT 200 after training with Vidya Heisel and Jennifer Yarro at the Frog Lotus Yoga International School in Costa Rica, 2012.

The sessions I teach are energising, non-competitive and relaxing, creating a practice which detoxifies both body and mind. My own yoga path is ongoing and I will continue to develop new understanding, not only through my teachers but also from my students. In my classes, as in my personal practice, I want people to find a peaceful and calm healing space, protected from the pressures and stresses of modern life.

I feel blessed that yoga showed me the path of life and light and I hope to continue to share it with the world.

This experience has given me incredible amount of knowledge which I am excited and looking forward to sheering it with you.
