NAOMI GIVAN (THE UK)
Hi I’m Naomi, I’m your teacher. I’ve practiced Yoga for over 15 years now and the benefits it’s brought to my life have been huge. It’s from this place that I wish to share what I’ve learnt and experienced with you. This practice in it’s various forms has helped me shift through stress, anxiety & depression. From working in a demanding career where I struggled to have any kind of work life balance, I moved into a place within myself where I could juggle career life as well life’s other ups & downs in a much more peaceful way. It is not one specific yoga practice that has helped me, but many. Through learning these many tools, we start to understand what we need better and how to use these to serve us as we continue through life.‘’ABOUT MENaomi is from Belfast.

NAT JEFFERIS (AUSTRALIA)
I can't remember my first yoga class. While I know it was at a gym & I was super confused about all the weird names for the poses, there was nothing magical about why I started yoga. The magic came much later. Before yoga became a significant part of my life, I was angry, irritable, dissatisfied & I had no idea why. Yoga has taught me about the importance of presence. How, when we pause, we can take time to respond rather than react. I have become more self-aware of my body, but also of the language I use towards myself & others. I find myself becoming more comfortable in stillness & quiet - just being. There is so much more joy in my life now & how could I not want to share that with others!? Now with 500 hours of teacher training, I have been teaching for 2 and a half years & what's amazing is, I never stop learning & growing. I want people to understand the power of moving, no matter what it looks like. Yoga is not just about the asana.@itsnatayoga

BEV LINDLEY (AUSTRALIA)
I am a mother and Grandmother,an Emmett Therapist and Yoga teacher from Sunny Townsville Nth Qld.. I began practicing Yoga after finishing up a 30 year career in the fitness industry due to exhaustion and Stress. After 18 months of practicing Yoga I completed my 200hr YTT with Santosha on Nusa Lembongan (Bali). I started teaching yoga on return and soon realised I wanted to learn even more.. Sept 2018 I completed my 300hr YTT in Bali with Pranaluz Conscious Living . I have been trained in Vinyasa and Hatha Yoga and have a passion for Yin Yoga and meditation practices. I found yoga to be so much more than a form of exercise or stretching routine. In my experience Yoga is a form of recalibrating your mind breath and body and the evolving of one self into a Calmer more mobile and stronger version. Yoga brings a sense of well-being and genuine happiness... I teach from Lighten Up studio and The Hub Strand Fitness in Townsville Nth Qld Australia.... join me ! Email: Bevy.lindley@gmail.com

JOSHUA WOOD (U.S.A)
Hi my name is Joshua, I have been practicing yoga for around 2 years now. I started doing it when i got into rock climbing, they offered some vinyasa classes at the gym i went to. It helped a lot with breathing and mobility, which are important in climbing and i realized in life as well. When i started doing yoga it was more for the work out and a good stretch before i would go climb but the more i got into it i realized how little i actually knew about what was inside my body and how my breathing helped to regulate it. I think yoga is important to me because it means taking time for myself to breathe and really look inward, it means letting go of all my problems for an hour and just being in the moment. It has also helped me to stop worrying about what other people are doing or where they are at in life and just focus on myself and my own path.

DANA NICULA (RUMANIA/SINGAPORE)
Dana’s first encounter with yoga was in her early teens when she accidentally found and read a book about it. Years later in life she decided to start practicing asana purely to stay healthy and active. In 2015 she completed her 200hr YTT in Thailand trying to deepen her knowledge. Fully aware that yoga is beyond knowledge of the books or various texts, but understanding the role they play in one’s life and their importance, Dana went on practicing and teaching in Singapore for a few more years revealing for herself and others a simple truth: always be prepared to understand the limitations each person has and that not every posture is suitable for all individuals. In September 2018 she embarked on a new journey with Pranaluz, under the guidance of Analu Farina - wonderful teacher and friend and became a 500RYT. Analu and the talented co-teachers Katya Primorskaya and Matahi Lefevre, helped Dana understand herself better and better herself. After the training, Dana took a new approach towards yoga, combining her love for dancing, yoga and meditation into a therapeutic, artful and magical act - all her classes happening in unconventional, always different ways.

HALEY WALL (CANADA)
I found yoga for the first time in October 2013. I remember it vividly because at the time I was struggling to manage the stress of starting university, and was looking for a way to cope. Little did I know at that point I would end up studying it and making it my full time career. I have now been teaching full time in Toronto Canada since early 2016, at a number of studios in a variety of styles. Many of the styles I teach are variations of traditional forms of yoga (Hatha and Vinyasa), that have been altered to meet the needs of busy city people, while maintaining the fundamental significance of traditional styles by incorporating aspects of pranayama and mindfulness. I am just now embarking on my adventure in leading workshops, retreats and trainings and look forward to seeing where these new endeavours take me. Instagram @Wallspace_yoga / haley.wall@icloud.com

LAURA BROUSSAL ( FRANCE)
Certificated 500h ytt and 25h Ayurveda for yoga teacher.
I'm teaching yoga vinyasa and yin during surf and yoga retreat. And teaching hatha, vinyasa and yin few times a week.
I love talking about anatomy during my class and take time to be sure that everyone understand what is going on in their body to practice in the safest way and to enjoy all the benefits of the practice.
I believe that by Trusting your body, loving it and taking care of it help to release the mind from some (a lot sometimes) negative thought and help to go deeper in the meditation and the spiritual path.
I also use asanas and pranayama to help some of my students to go through menaupose.
I'm currently in a pre and post natal training.
