"Peace comes from within, do not seek it without." - Buddha

Julie

Julie began her yoga practice in 2003 in Boston, Massachusetts, in the United States. She studied at the Baron Baptiste Power Yoga Studios where she practiced Power Vinyasa Yoga, a dynamic flow, which synchronizes breathing and movement. Julie also apprenticed as a teacher’s assistant at Prana Power Yoga in Boston where she learnt how to guide, nurture and help students deepen their practice. It was here that she began to appreciate and understand the connection and energy between the student and the teacher.

Julie trained as a teacher in Bali, Indonesia at Shakti Spirit Yoga with Rachel Hull. Along with a strong Ayurvedic component, the course taught a much gentler form of Vinyasa Flow Yoga, focusing on safety and touching upon yoga as a form of physical therapy. Most recently, she completed an advanced vinyasa intensive under the guidance of Edward Clark and Nikki Durrant of Tripsichore Yoga.

Julie is a Yoga Alliance Registered teacher at the 200 hour level (RYT200). Today, Julie incorporates all of her past experiences into her teaching style. She teaches Hatha Yoga, Power Yoga, Vinyasa Flow and Yoga Nidra. She teaches students at all levels including those who have never practiced yoga before. She hopes that students will walk away from her classes with a sense of peace, joy and positivity.

Khoun

Luang Prabang native, Khoun, trained as a teacher in Bangkok at Yoga Elements Studio with Adrian Cox. Khoun has a love for yoga that is apparent in the genuine energy that she brings to her classes. She has practiced Hatha, Ashtanga and Vinyasa Flow, which she combines to create classes that are both strong and relaxing at the same time.

Khoun guides her students through their practice with dedication and precision, which means that while she is nurturing, she also focuses on proper alignment techniques. Students in Khoun's classes will be gently encouraged to find their edge and to practice steadily around this edge.

Khoun often makes use of props and wall exercises as tools for finding the correct alignment. Her classes are suitable for students of all levels, including complete beginners. She has played an active role in introducing yoga to the local community. Students will be challenged and energized, but most importantly, they will connect with the feeling of overall wellbeing and content.

Sansany

My name is Sansany, I am from Laos and I am a yoga teacher. My journey to yoga started in 2008 when I took my first class. Two years later I joined another class in Thailand and a few more classes in Luang Prabang, but it wasn’t until 2014, when I was in Luxembourg, that I bought my first yoga mat. I did self-practice every day with Youtube videos and I fell in love with yoga. After one month I felt stronger and I saw myself progress through new poses while I was doing 30 day yoga challenge videos. A yoga teacher friend from Egypt inspired me to study to become a yoga teacher. I did my first six day yoga retreat in Luang Prabang in 2016, then completed a 6 week teacher training program in Chiang Mai, Thailand in July, 2017. I now work as front office manager at a charming hotel, and I love my job, but I also love yoga and want to teach and help others find the same joy that I have found. My favorite style is Vinyasa flow. I hope to see you in a yoga class soon. Namaste.

Nauka

I am originally from Berlin (Germany) and have lived in Vienna (Austria) since November 2016. Since I fell in love with Luang Prabang around 2015, I am happy to stay here 2 month a year since then. In recent years, Luang Prabang has become like a second home for me. I'm excited and so happy to be able to share my passion to yoga with you! In addition to my career as a musical actress, life coach and business administrator, I have trained as a yoga teacher focusing on Vinyasa Flow and Yin Yoga.

Kim - various workshops and teacher trainings with Anton Jager, Katchie Ananda, Matt Giordano, Claire Missingham and Mark Stephens - new impulses and influences through my travels e.g. Laos, Cambodia, Senegal and various destinations in Europe - several years of self-practice With me you can find everyday yoga philosophy with varied asanas - all with a smile on the lips and always with a small wink. Because humor and curiosity are very important for me in all areas of my life. Of course, that's how I design my yoga classes and workshops.

Antje

Antje practiced different types of yoga for 15 years until she moved to Thailand for a job. In Chiang Mai she started practicing Ashtanga and Vinyasa on a regular basis and only then did the Prana really hit her and she understood what is meant by 'Yoga is something I am, not something I do'. She wanted to learn more about the philosophy behind this movement therapy and spread the Love. Numerous workshops and the iflow Teacher Training in Ubud, Bali with Amy Pastore gave her the knowledge and courage to find 'her kind of yoga' and teach it. Antje's teaching style is fluid, modern, playful and dancy, reflecting the many sports and different types of yoga that have influenced her practice. She has been teaching yoga locally and internationally since 2013. Her classes are a perfect balance between intensity and centering and will leave students feeling high and smiling for hours.
