YOGA JOURNEY
I am a 500-hour level Purna Yoga professional based in Helsinki, Finland. I started my yoga practice at the age of 18 due to lower back pain and have ever since trained both in India and in the West. I completed my first 200-hour Hatha Yoga Teacher Training in Rishikesh, Northern India, also called the ‘‘birthplace of modern yoga’’. This was an immersion into the land where the practice of Yoga has its roots.
In 2014 I further educated myself in Helsinki, Finland, where I am from. With the guidance of Tove Palmgren, I completed a 200-hour Purna Yoga Teacher training. Then in 2015, I graduated from a 500-hour Purna Yoga Teacher Training taught personally by world-renowned Yoga Master Aadil Palkhivala.
I continue to further educate myself on a daily basis. I study weekly with my teachers and am passionately interested in psychology and cutting-edge research on holistic health.
I have in-depth Purna Yoga training in the following areas:
- The lower back & SI-joint
- Neck, upper back & shoulders
- Recovery & health of the nervous system
- Pranayama (breathing practices)
Since 2015, I have been teaching Purna Yoga in Helsinki and online. I teach both in English and Finnish.
I teach weekly Yoga and meditation classes open to everyone as well as monthly workshops, private classes, and lectures for companies.
