Hello!
I’m Yanna, and I’m passionate about creating spaces where you can slow down, reconnect, and experience deep release and relaxation. My classes are a blend of meditation and tension release practices, all designed to help you clear physical, mental, and emotional blockages to restore energetic flow. I believe in letting go of the superficial expectations society places on us, and instead, focusing on our internal worlds to discover who we are truly meant to be outside of the social program. Every class is an opportunity to raise your awareness and release what is holding you back.
Her Story
Like many who have found the path of being in service, I am living a completely different life than the one I first envisioned. After spending years working in biotechnology research in Boston, I felt a persistent pull to begin again in Amsterdam. What began as a horizontal career shift eventually became something far more radical. Within a year of teaching yoga alongside pursuing a neuroscience degree, I left academia behind entirely. I sought more somatic-orientated training and dedicated myself to a completely different lifestyle. One with sovereignty, awareness, and deep connection.
​
My path has taken me from analyzing disconnected data from scientific experiments to exploring patterns within the cosmos, linking astrology with everyday life. I bring elements of my personal practices into my classes, including techniques involving fascia, the lymphatic and nervous systems, as well as accessing the body’s innate intelligence to heal beyond the mind. I prioritize understanding through feeling, bypassing societies bias to over-intellectualize.
​
My intention is to empower others to free their minds from the constructs of social programming and to bring connection and compassion back into daily life through deep release and relaxation. My empathic intuition guides each class to be rooted in the present moment as students are invited to slow down and notice subtle shifts of energy as they recalibrate through moment to moment awareness. My teaching style is laidback yet profound as we explore the depths of our being outside of syntax.
​
I specialize in guided meditation, myofascial tension release, and Reiki healing, weaving together my favorite techniques drawn from my diverse training. My hope is that you discover the peace, clarity, and joy that arise when you consciously shift your perception away from society’s embedded biases and toward empathic communion, contributing to the evolution of our collective consciousness.
