After 10 years of Ashtanga yoga… I left.

And I didn’t leave because I stopped loving it.

I left because I pushed it until I stopped listening to my body

Ashtanga was my life. My anchor. My identity.

Six days a week. Before sunrise. Discipline like a religion.

Even when I moved from Slovakia to Sydney and all was way too much to handle…
I woke up at 4 a.m. in Sydney, practiced advanced series, worked as a therapist, studied, moved countries, fought for visas… and told myself:

“This is devotion.”

But it slowly became something else.

My body started speaking — and I didn’t listen.

Fatigue. Exhaustion. Slower recovery. Subtle hormonal shifts I didn’t yet have language for.

And I kept going.

Because in Ashtanga, you don’t stop.

You push through.

Until I burned out.

That was the moment everything broke open.

Because I started asking a question that many yoga systems don’t want you to ask:

What if the practice isn’t wrong… but the way we’re told to do it is?

I discovered Vinyasa Krama — and more importantly, I discovered something even bigger:

And women’s bodies are not linear.

We move through cycles. Energy rises and falls. Hormones shift everything. Life changes everything.

And no one taught us how to practice with that reality.

Instead, we were taught consistency over intelligence.

Effort over listening.

Form over feeling.

I don’t believe in that anymore.

Now I teach a practice that adapts to you — not the other way around.

Strong when you are strong.

Soft when you are depleted.

More independent.

If you’re a woman who loves to move, who loves discipline, who loves strength and independence — but you’re tired of pushing yourself into burnout…
Maybe You’re ready for a different way?

You can join my online classes or come to our retreat in Girona this October.

A few years ago, I found myself standing where many women eventually do.

Exhausted.
Overwhelmed.
Emotionally sensitive.
Not feeling like myself.

I was entering perimenopause, but at the time I didn't fully understand what was happening. Like many women, I searched for solutions everywhere. I tried the advice, the supplements, the herbs. Some things helped for a while, but eventually I realised I was looking outside myself for answers that my body was asking me to find within.

So I returned to the practices I had been teaching and studying for nearly 20 years.

Breath by breath.
Movement by movement.
Practice by practice.

Qi Gong, yoga kriyas, nervous system regulation, self-Shiatsu, meditation, breathwork.

What surprised me most wasn't that my symptoms improved.

It was that I began to trust my body again.

I stopped fighting the changes and started listening.

I discovered that this transition is not something to "fix." It is a passage that asks us to slow down, reconnect, and learn a new relationship with ourselves.

That journey became the foundation of this 6-week course.

A gentle, practical and deeply nourishing space where I share the tools that helped me navigate hormonal changes, stress, overwhelm and the demands of modern life.

Together we explore ancient practices that help you:

- Regulate your nervous system
- Restore energy and vitality
- Release tension held in the hips and pelvis
- Support hormonal balance
- Feel grounded, calm and at home in your body

Whether you are navigating perimenopause, feeling disconnected from yourself, or simply longing for more ease and balance, this space is for you.

Come exactly as you are.

I wasn't always a yoga teacher.
I started out as a textile designer — creating clothing and jewellery, living through beauty, colour and form. I was an artist. And artists feel everything deeply.
But beneath the creativity, I was searching. For meaning. For something that felt true. For an anchor.
I found yoga myself. and then a dear friend introduced me to Shiatsu. And something clicked even deeper. And I fell completely in love.
What started as curiosity became devotion.
Yoga, Shiatsu, somatic healing — I followed each thread with everything I had.

Because I understood something early on: our bodies carry our stories. Our tension, our patterns, our pain. The things we couldn't process with our minds alone.

As women, we know this more than anyone.
We hold so much. In our shoulders, our hips, our hormones, our nervous systems. We push through. We adapt. We forget to listen.

Twenty years later — trained across four continents, certified in yoga, Shiatsu, massage therapy and women's hormonal health — I built this work for you.

Not for the woman who wants a workout.
For the woman who wants to come home to herself.

If you feel called let's get in touch. Let's work together and let's help and s lift each other up.
