KICK ASS YOGA
Hi! I'm Jelena, a handstand enthusiast with heart and soul
My yoga career started practicing with a yoga book from the 70's when I was 12 years old. The lady in the book wore those exciting see-through tights and back then, lotus pose was the most impressive to me.
And it still is. Today I live and work in Berlin as a yoga teacher, writer, naturopath, singer, actress, speaker, presentress and fulltime mom. In 2009 I took the Yoga Alliance certified teacher training at Spirit Yoga in Berlin, after which I took additional teacher trainings with Max Strom, Duncan Wong and Ana Forest. Since then I have been teaching private and group sessions, focusing on powerful, honest and touching vinyasa style classes.
After my training as Heilpraktikerin in 2012 I found my way on a holistic path where I learned more about the Dorn/Breuss method, Tibetan Massage and Hypno-Therapy. I started a new teacher training in Osteopathy in 2019. Since then I have embarked on a journey to more power by combining yoga, high intensity and bodyweight training in my KICK ASS YOGA style: yoga for non-yogis, athletes and yoginis-to-be, who benefit from incorporating yogic 'mobility' with graceful movements, and gaining more strength, endurance and awareness of their alignment and posture.
