YOGA OF FREEDOM

Experience liberating and radical approach to yoga that can help you deepen your knowledge and awareness of your inner and outer movement.

This style of yoga is unique and will nourish your body and soul with somatic movement, deep pranayamas and imaginative creativity. I have been teaching regularly varying styles of yoga since 2005. I call my way of teaching the Yoga of Freedom – Vapauden jooga, or Movement of the Present – Läsnäolon liike.

The emphasis can be in finding the wave and spirals of our unique spine, connecting with partner or just opening up and gently letting go. All teaching is soft and explorative. We are focusing to have a healthy spine that can express your inner world. You will always find spiral movement, playfulness, grounding the feet, liberating movement, poetry and loving touch in my yoga classes and trainings. 

“Being sensitive is being alive.”
-Vanda Scaravelli

My teaching is inspired by Vanda Scaravelli’s philosophy, loving self care, cyclical life, Feldenkrais method and other somatic approaches and imaginery creativity. And beautiful teachers like Sandra Sabatini, Helen Noakes, Peter Clifford, Angela Farmer, Ru Johnson and Kylli Kukk. 

I am trained 350h in Finland and RYT200h in India with the Health Mandala -team. And a registered Yoga Elder with the UK based Yoga Teachers Together (YTT) and a Terra Soul Jooga yoga teacher trainer since 2017.
