Namaste
Canadian born, Debbie (Divya) developed a daily practice in yogasana with Swami Shivanandaji in Goa, India. Swamiji's gentle and spiritual approach encouraged her to travel to the Himalayas to learn more of yoga philosophy and build a foundation with these teachings.
This journey led her to the teachings of the Sivananda style of yoga, a system stemmed in traditional Hatha yoga. She has been teaching since 2008 and continues to develop practice along her yoga journey.
Sivananda's teacher training course was a profound, life changing experience for Debbie, inspiring her to transform her lifestyle and continue along a yogic path, honoring her teachers by learning how to guide others in the hope that they too can enjoy the lifelong wonderful benefits of an holistic yoga practice.
Encouraging students to enrich their experience with all aspects of yoga, she teaches with openness and compassion, all are welcome. Her techniques are inspired by the wonderfully diverse teachers she has been fortunate to learn with along her journey. Her classes focus on breathing, meditation, mantra, self reflection, along with philosophy and postures.
Benefits of these ancient practices include self awareness, clarity of mind, increased willpower, improved wellbeing as well as developing balance, flexibility and strength. She invites students to reconnect with yogic teachings in everyday life, nurturing a peaceful personal life and society.
Debbie travels to India most winters to nurture her practice with her master teachers. She also lives in both the UK and Canada.
