About

Purpose driven yoga sharier and a holistic (Ayurvedic) nutrition specialist striving to help people optimize their lives for happiness. Spent some quality time in India training and learning from truly talented yoga and meditation masters and am so grateful now can share this knowledge and practice with anyone and everyone who is interesting to learn traditional yoga that will help you balance your mind, body and spirit. Been so fortunate to have opportunities to work with people from different backgrounds such as kids camps, senior homes, American cancer society , military personnel and their spouses, international summer camps, and many others (back pain patients, post surgery patients , mental health awareness org. etc). I truly believe that yoga can benefit and bring awareness to everyone and help us all develop a lifestyle that leads to a healthier, happier and more balanced life, help us live our best, authentic life and reach our full potential on personal as well as professional level and more.

I started practicing yoga with Elena two years ago with exceptional results. By the time I began with the classes, I had mayor physical limitations primarily due to suffering from Lupus and RA for the past 10 years. Elena listened and kindly understood my medical conditions. She created and developed an individualized plan to help me overcome the limitations I had and achieve my health goals. She helped me understand the principles of the yoga practice and breathing techniques with patience, love and compassion. She is always guiding me towards improvement while at the same time telling me to understand and listen to my body. She is deeply involved in her own personal development as well as with me as her student. Her vast knowledge in aryuvedic nutrition adds a holistic approach to her lessons, which has helped me improve tremendously my symptoms and health conditions. She shows authenticity in her personality, energy and a true passion for her teachings. Always wanting to educate, empower and inspire others with her positive attitude. I am extremely grateful and sincerely appreciate her guidance, teachings and commitment to my progress as a yoga practitioner during the last two years. Today, I feel better and I can say I have a better quality of life because of her. She has become an essential part of my healing path. She has earned my strongest recommendation to anyone interested in an amazing yoga instructor or an aryuvedic nutritional consultant. Thanks for becoming an inspiration and a role model to my weekly yoga practice. Thanks for being my beautiful warrior-like yoga teacher.

Details: 1 student (one-on-one with instructor) • 51 - 60 years old • No yoga preference • Beginner • Increased flexibility • Help with injury/pain • Relaxation • General fitness (e.g., weight loss, toning) • Meditation • My home, venue, etc.
