Iwona Lenartowicz
Iwona belonged to a Polish folk song and dance group, Karolinka for 16 years whilst maintaining a full time position in the Fashion industry. Eventually she decided to go travelling in Asia where she first stayed in a Sivanandha Ashram in India during 1995. Here she developed her passion for yoga and opened up an intrigue into another philosophy and culture. In England she tried various styles of yoga and finally settled with Ashtanga, Dynamic and Yin.
On numerous occasions Iwona returned to India and trained in Brahmani Yoga in Goa. She decided to complete a teacher training course at Himalaya Yoga Valley, Arambol in 2009, out of interest, to discover more about yoga philosophy and lifestyle; thus enhancing a real passion and understanding for teaching.
What does yoga mean to Iwona?
"It's a voyage of self discovery, appreciation and openness to being
in tune with ones body, mind and thoughts. A lifestyle compassionate with nature
