Meet Tereza: Children's Yoga Teacher at BEAM ACADEMY

Namaste,  I’m Tereza, 26 years old from London and living in Camden. I teach Yoga to children ranging from 2.5 years old to adults in their 70’s. I completed my 200 hrYTT in Rishikesh, India on the holy River of the Ganges in 2018. I’ve been Practicing yoga since I was 17 years old, My first yoga experience was a Hot/Bikram Yoga class and from there on I fell in love with the practice and way of life it encouraged me to lead.  

My Favourite Yoga pose is Navasana (Boat Pose) this has always been my fave asana because of how many variations and challenging it was for me at first to conquer in my practice. It's also works the core which I think is the most important part of your body to discipline as it protects your spine.

Three things I always have in my fridge and  are probably my essentials are; oat milk, Vegetables and Hummus. I lead a veggie/ Vegan lifestyle as I love anything to do with health.

5 things i would bring to a deserted island would be: 

1. Music 
2. My Yoga mat
3. Unlimited Hummus (Im obsessed with hummus)
4. Coffee!!!!
5. My fave book Diamond Heart by A.H. AALMAS
