Quiet, attentive yoga in small groups. Riga.
I teach because I needed someone to slow me down — and I want to be that for the people who come to my mat.
I started practicing yoga more than a decade ago, looking for something to balance out a fast life. What I found wasn't a workout. It was a way to listen to my body again — and slowly, to my mind.
These days I teach small group classes in Riga: never more than six people in the room. The format is intentional. With a small group I can actually see how each person is moving, where the breath is held, where to soften and where to support.
My classes lean slow. We warm up gently, move through deliberate sequences, and always finish with a long, real savasana. Beginners are welcome — most of what we do is approachable on day one.
Outside the studio I travel when I can, drink a lot of tea, and keep notebooks. If you've come to one of my classes, I probably remember the corner of the room you sat in.
If you'd like to come along on a Monday evening or Saturday morning, the schedule is on the sessions page — RSVP to save a spot.
