My Yoga Path and Training
For years, I believed that yoga was nothing more than stretching for people who were too lazy to work out (I know, I cringe when I think about it). And it’s with this judgmental mindset that I attended my first yoga class in Bali back when I was 25.
I didn't even buy that class, I only went because it was gifted to me. And honestly, it didn't take long that day to completely change my mind!
It was a 90 min class of what appeared to be all-leves but was clearly out of my reach. I spent most of the class trying to get the pace, breathe through it, stop starring at the senior ladies who were not only flexible but stronger that I thought possible past age 45 (still cringing).
I used to believe I was young and healthy, but I soon realized that I was barely just alive in a body that felt stiff and weak.
Yoga has completely transformed my life, both physically and mentally. It humbled me because I thought I had all the answers, only to realize I knew nothing at all. And helped me discover my true strength, both on and off the mat, and realize the true meaning of holistic wellness and strength.
Now I'm passionate about it and determined to share yoga and ayurveda for empowerment with as many people as possible.
Why I Teach
Teaching yoga is not just my baby project; it's my way of adding value to our lives. Every class, every session is an opportunity to explore new strengths, gain fresh perspectives, and give you the tools to navigate life with confidence, calm, resilience and a smiling heart.
I love that feeling when I think I can't possibly do something, try it then succeed. And I want my clients to feel this way every time they join me on the mat. It's a safe space where we are free to reshape all of our belief system.
Why 'Yogi Now'?
The concept of 'Yogi Now' sparked during a 10-Day silent meditation retreat in 2020.
The idea of creating a platform for yoga, ayurveda, holistic health, and empowerment has always been resonating within me, it had been lingering in my mind but only began to take shape on that retreat.
During one of the meditation sessions, the name 'Yogi Now' just suddenly popped in mind, and it was so loud and clear I literrally kind of heard it in my head. I knew I had found my new path (and a name for it!).
Since that moment, 'Yogi Now' has been a commitment, a vision I've chosen to bring to life. This brand represents our journey – one of growth, empowerment, and community. It's a promise to offer a space where we can all gather to practice, grow, fuel, and glow together.
Online for now and soon in person with our first ever studio!
My Teaching Philosophy
As a 400-hour certified Yoga teacher and Ayurveda practitioner, my aim and goal is to make holistic health enjoyable and accessible. Each class is tailored to strengthen the six dimensions of human experience: body, energy, mind, heart, awareness, and soul.
It's my way of hopefully helping you peel off those layers holding you back from shining your true light.
Flow with me!
I am looking forward to meeting you once day, whether it's through our classes, workshops, or even in person retreats.
Here's to making every moment count, to living in the now, and to enjoying this beautiful thing we call life.
