Studio Owner
Ilya
I completed my Teacher Training in 2023 with Yoga Sports World, hosted by Bikram Yoga Fitzroy.
I’ve been practising Bikram Yoga since 2015, and it has completely changed my life. It’s taught me discipline, patience, compassion and the power of acceptance, and ultimately gave me the opportunity to teach this practice.
Bikram Yoga has strengthened my health, improved my longevity, and brought balance to my body, mind and spirit.
