Ayurveda - the science of life

Ayurveda is a living science, rooted in simplicity yet rich with meaning. It teaches that all matter, including our bodies and food, arises from the five elements: ether, air, fire, water, and earth. The unique dance of these elements within us makes each person distinct. Some individuals hold more fire, while others have more earth; this elemental composition shapes our nature. 

Ayurveda & Hatha Yoga — A Living Integration

Ayurveda and Hot Yoga are not separate paths. They are one system of rhythm, heat, and healing. Both are rooted in nature’s intelligence, in the way the body holds memory, and in how energy flows through us. Ayurveda helps us understand how the five elements shape our digestion, energy, and emotions. Yoga brings this into motion through breath, form, and stillness. When practised together, they become a map for restoring balance. Not just any balance, but your balance.

Rhythm. Fire. Structure. Stillness.

Together, Ayurveda and Yoga offer tools to clear what’s heavy, calm what’s chaotic, and reconnect with what’s essential. That is the foundation of every offering I share with yoga teachers — ancient, honest, and entirely personal.

Foundations of Ayurveda

We are part of nature

Mind and body are not separate

We have different needs
