My professional background
Dr Elena Voyce RYT 200,E-RYT, RYT 500, REPs Level 3, Pilates Foundation Comprehensive Teacher, NHS Approved Practitioner.
I founded Teach Yoga which was known at the time as Body Primo, in 2005 following a thoroughly satisfying and continuing career as a Pilates and Yoga instructor now spanning over 10 years. The school has evolved with the input from outstanding yogi's like Jonathan Monks and Jaqui Wan to offer something even more special!
I am very proud in saying that Teach Yoga is in the process of becoming British Wheel of Yoga accredited, and is also one of the few RYS (Registered Yoga Schools) in the UK with a Yoga Alliance teacher training registration for both the 200 hour and 500 hour courses.
I am the principal tutor on the yoga teacher training courses. I also continue to teach both Yoga and Pilates privately at home, for Teach Yoga, and for leading London Health Clubs such as Virgin Active. I am also a member of the Pilates Foundation, having trained with and a being a big fan of the grace of the teachers at Pilates off the Square!
My teachers and friends
My Students are first and foremost my greatest teachers. I learn so much from them and I feel blessed to lead a life constantly surrounded by such amazing teachers.
Bridget Woods Kramer Bridget is my current inspiration as she fully embodies the heartfelt essence that makes Anusara so special to me. In 2008 I became an inspired Anusara Teacher, and Bridget was a great influence on my path.
Shiva Rea is my greatest inspiration who I am fortunate to say has become a dear friend as well as a teacher. Through attending Shiva's retreats and workshops over the last few years we have formed a real bond and it was my greatest honour in being asked by her to become one of her global assistants. I was able to learn so much more from last December when she beautifully taught us Prana & Rasa Vinyasa Yoga in Kerala, India.
Dearest Elena:
Thank you so much for your wonderful help during the training. You are such a bouyant and radiant being. I love and trust your participation and hope that it illumines your journey which is why I never ask you to assist as I know the fullness of your life and want it to be your choice. You are welcome to everything always!!!!!!!!
The facial was lovely. I ran completely out of pounds or I wanted to treat you to a facial. You are so generous with your gifts. The next time I see you I get to treat you!!!!
So I am heading to the volcanic pilgrimage of Santorini feeling the shakti of new beginnings - full moon and solstice being windows of transformation.
You and Rod are wonderful together...I adore his joy and charm. May our paths cross again and again.
Loving You!
Shiva
Jonathan Monks saved my body!! He has an amazing personal practice, great intuition - he knows what my mind and body need, and a thorough insight into the body. He is a true healer and an inspiration to me and I am forever grateful that he has graced my life with his presence.
Dharma Mittra is an inspiration to us all as students and as teachers. During his last two visits in 2006, his gentle but frank discussions about vegetarianism and his rich experiential understanding of the chakras planted important seeds in our minds about our whole approach to yoga. His demonstration and teachings of asana left us in awe of this humble but yogically towering figure! Thank you Dharma for your guidance.
