Experience

I have been teaching weekly yoga classes since 2011, sharing my passion for yoga in Estonia and around the world.

At the end of 2021 I left the corporate world, where I was working as Human Resources and Office Manager for almost a decade, to give my full attention to my yogic path and do what I love the most: teach yoga. 

 

I teach in-person, LIVE online, at festivals, and also private and corporate clients.

Classes are available in Estonian and English. 

My Story

I was born and raised in Tallinn, Estonia. I have been a seeker all my life, being drawn to mysteries of life beyond the visible world already at a young age.  I always wanted to know, what else is there, being curious to discover the tools that help me to live fully, that help me to discover my Purpose...

​

The seeds of my interest in Yoga and Tantra were already planted in my teens when I discovered some interesting books that contained hints about these topics on my mother's bookshelf. At 18, while living in Germany, I bought my very first book about Tantra. It became clear to me that this is the path I want to discover. Still, it took me many more years to fully set out on the journey of deep Self-discovery through Tantra and Yoga.   

 

My yoga journey started in earnest when I began practicing Ashtanga yoga in 2007.  That was also the first time I felt the calling to teach yoga. During this period of time in my life, which was also full of personal challenges, I was constantly looking for a higher guidance, a teacher, or a sign, which could help me to get clarity, and move forward from a stuck place.

I studied Holistic Therapy and was passionately searching tools that could bring more balance into my life. 

​

In 2009, I participated in my first Tantra workshop in Estonia, where I also found out about the profound teachings of classical Hatha Yoga. It was a deep recognition from the first moment – the sign I had been looking for.  It led me to Agama Yoga school in Koh Phangan, Thailand in 2010 where I started my intensive studies of Yoga and Tantra. This was the beginning of a new chapter in my life. 

 

In 2011, after three months of intense studies in a tropical paradise of Koh Phangan, I became a certified Hatha Yoga Teacher (500 hrs). I loved the spiritual yogic community of Koh Phangan, which I called “my spiritual home.”  I returned annually until 2018 to teach and study, obtaining my certification with more than 1,000 hours of training.  

That was a time of intense transformation, self-exploration and spiritual awakening, that brought a lot of insights and healing and gave my life a totally new direction.  

 

My path to inner freedom and following my truth has not always been smooth and easy. I have stumbled, fallen and risen again countless times. But the practices of yoga and Tantra always give me inspiration to evolve, learn from previous experiences, and let go of that which no longer serves me. It has been and continues to be an adventurous journey of self-discovery.  

 

I have always felt in me the passion and strong aspiration to understand more about the mysteries of the feminine essence. My aim has  been to live a life as an empowered woman, deeply connected to my femininity.  My interest in a holistic approach towards women's health and wellbeing guided me to study with Uma Dinsmore-Tuli, one of the pioneers of yoga tailored for woman's body. I finished "Yoni Shakti Well Woman Yoga Therapy Teacher Training" at 2022 and now holding monthly womens circles and Womb Yoga classes.

 

Over the years, following my calling and my inner guidance I have had the blessing to study with many inspiring teachers in the fields of Yoga, Holistic Therapy, Conscious Relating, Massage, Sacred Sexuality, Tantra, Holistic Dance Language, Kundalini Dance, Self-Mastery and Empowerment and many other topics.  I have attended numerous workshops all over

the world, including Tantra and Yoga Festivals, always feeling drawn to communities of like-minded people. 

 

At the beginning of 2024 I felt inspired to go deeper in my studies of yoga and I decided to enroll in a 500 hr yoga teacher training of classical breath based Hatha Yoga at Akasha Yoga Academy. 

I love the path of self-discovery. Still on it daily, embracing this adventurous journey with full curiosity..

​​

My Greatest teacher has been Life itself.  The mysterious and ever changing journey of womanhood, the path of motherhood, and of course LOVE…
