FLORA
YOGA INSTRUCTOR
What is the best thing about teaching Yoga?
I discovered yoga after having children and fell in love with how it made me feel connected to my body and in tune with my thoughts and emotions. I found this great balance between physical strength and flexibility while learning how to be more focused, calmer and have much (much!) more patience.
I love that when I teach can empower students to find that mind-body connection. I also believe it is so important to learn to find time for yourself, to nourish your mind, body and soul.
Coffee or tea?
Both! Depends on the time of day
What is your favourite Yoga pose?
Warrior 3 is one of them. Perfect combination of flexibility, strength and the ability to focus and balance. Love it!

Night owl for sure
