Athena started her yoga journey at the age of 17, due to her passion for dancing and has continued the spiritual upbringing that yoga embodies. She finds serenity and peace while on her mat, and she hopes to impart the same tranquility, knowledge, philosophy and of course, alignment of asanas she has learnt while completing her 500 hour teacher training in Rishikesh Yog Peeth, India in August 2015.
After backpacking through 21 different countries, in the last 5 years, Athena was introduced to numerous cultures and styles of yoga and hopes to continue to inspire and motivate her students with body positivity and self love, which was what made her fall in love with yoga in the first place.
Her classes are specifically tailored to her students’ needs and progress, involving gentle adjustments and positive motivation, to help them go into their asanas deeper while maintaining a safe alignment.
