Discovering Yoga: A Lifelong Journey
My connection with Yoga began at age 10 when my grandmother introduced me to her daily practice. It all started when she returned from India, bringing with her a wealth of knowledge and a new routine. In the tranquil embrace of her garden, every morning, she would engage in her "daily exercises." I can still vividly recall those playful moments when she encouraged me to stick out my tongue and mimic the growl of a lion.
In 2003 I made the life-altering decision to move to Holland, that I truly rediscovered Yoga and embarked on a transformative journey. At that time, my life was in upheaval, and everything seemed uncertain. It was during this vulnerable phase that Yoga emerged as a guiding light, illuminating my path with its profound positive impact.
Intrigued and captivated by the powerful effects of Yoga, I decided to dive deeper into its practice. To my surprise, yoga became an integral part of my identity, guiding me as I shared its wisdom with others
I was introduced to Ayurveda, Yoga's sister science. In 2017, I seized the opportunity to study Ayurveda at the esteemed Delight Ayurveda Academy in Amsterdam. Over the course of five years, which included an enriching internship at an Ayurvedic hospital in India, I immersed myself in the principles and practices of Ayurveda. Finally, in 2022, I proudly graduated, equipped with the knowledge and skills to offer Ayurvedic consultations and treatments alongside my Yoga classes.
Let us strive to feel more, worry less, and empower ourselves through this transformative process. Together, we can unlock the hidden potential within and lead lives of greater harmony and wholeness. Take the first step on this empowering journey, and let the healing power of Yoga and Ayurveda guide you towards a state of profound well-being
