My Story
I have been studying movement for over 35 years, first through dance and later Pilates and Yoga.
Born and raised in Ex-Yugoslavia, I danced ballet and contemporary dance which brought me to the Netherlands. I graduated at Rotterdam Dance Academy (Codarts) where I discovered the beauty and authenticity of the Classical Pilates method which I’m teaching ever since.
My Yoga practice helped me to find the balance and keep the focus in the most challenging situations in life. I had the honour to study and practice with many wonderful teachers from all over the world and I’m grateful to be able to share this magic with others.
My classes are based on mindful movement, alignment and flow. They are playful and uplifting, yet meditative. Inspiration I find in music, dance and nature. My practice is also influenced by Vipassana Meditation, Ayurveda and Thai-Yoga massage but the biggest inspiration to me are my students of all backgrounds, shapes and sizes.
I am a Shiatsu masseur and I am continuing my education for Shiatsu Therapy at the Zen Shiatsu Opleiding in Amsterdam.
