Yes. Classes are guided with options and clear cues.

All sessions are recorded. Recording access depends on your package.

Group classes build rhythm. The 1:1 session helps you personalize the practice: posture, pacing, focus, and habits.

A yoga mat is enough. Blocks or a strap are also nice-to-have but you can use anything similar to blocks (thick books, pillows) and strap (thin towel, belt,..).

No. Each month is a standalone program. You choose if and when you join again. Movementum Monthly is happening every second month.

I was living in environments, relationships, and habits that drained my energy and blurred who I was.

Leaving a four-year toxic relationship didn’t mean I was healed — it only showed me how disconnected I had become.

But first, I had to spiral deeper — through all the distractions, coping mechanisms, and heartbreaks — before realizing that pain was my teacher, not my punishment.

I started with yoga…

Between 2020 and 2022, I tried everything — reading, journaling, working more, dating more, numbing more.

I told myself I was growing, but I was still running from pain.

It took many repetitions of the same patterns to admit I was deeply hurt and that no external thing was going to fix that for me.

Around that time, I met one of my teachers, Talia Sutra, and yoga became the daily bread of my life.

In 2022, I began to travel with one clear intention: to get to know myself again.

Through silence and solitude, I met the rawest parts of who I was. It was messy, honest, and real.

I saw the parts of me I had been neglecting — the ones that were simply me.

Somewhere in the stillness, I began to understand what self-respect actually feels like — not as an idea, but as a daily choice.

I kept practicing…

In Sri Lanka, I made a big decision: no more dating, no more searching. I learned to care for myself — not perfectly, but consciously. It felt good.

When I returned home, our dog — my biggest love — passed away. Another heartbreak.

That loss softened me. It stripped away my need for control and taught me the power of surrender.

It was the first time I felt everything fully, without trying to fix it.

It reminded me that life isn’t something to control — it’s something to meet, moment by moment.

Later that year, I travelled to India for my 200-hoyswaaqur Yoga Teacher Training at Sarvaguna Yoga School under Dr. Keshava, who became my teacher in both philosophy and life.

Through philosophy and meditation, I learned to be still enough to hear my own clarity.

After two months, I knew it was time to go home — not out of fear, but out of alignment.

In 2024, I was back in Slovakia — grounded, calm, and ready to start fresh.

I travelled short-term, built new connections, and focused mainly on my career.

Later that year, I began teaching yoga — not as something to perform, but as something to live.

As I changed, everything around me shifted — my community, my habits, my relationships.

Slowly, I gave up drinking and stopped performing at work.

My marketing career, which had once defined me, had become the source of my anxiety.

Early in 2025, I travelled to the Philippines and Nepal — for the first time, to places I wanted to return to, with people and routines that felt right.

It helped me fully surrender to the present moment, and I had never felt more alive.

During a hike in the Himalayas, I realised that peace was within me. I had been living in constant stress for almost ten years.

After removing myself from toxic environments and relationships, I saw that the last thing still draining me was my job.

I made a huge decision — to stop shrinking, to stop living for others’ expectations, and to walk away from what no longer aligned.

That included leaving my 3.5-year marketing job after eight years in the field.
