About

Gayatri

I was born in Istanbul, Turkey. I graduated from Science Faculty Istanbul University. I worked many years for several IT companies in 15 years. I had some health problems due to long hours working with the computers so in 2005 I started to do yoga and my yoga journey has started.

My first teacher was a very special person who showed me that yoga is there for everyone, no matter how old you might be or what kind of body shape and condition you might have. After practising regularly for a number of years, I studied with a lovely Dutch teacher in South Korea who really helped develop my confidence and understanding of how, with a little perseverance, anyone can benefit from yoga. Later, I received further training from a teacher of the Bihar School of yoga while I lived in Kolkata, India. She taught me how yoga gives people happiness. I then did my formal training to become a yoga teacher at Shivananda Ashram in Kerala, India in 2011.

Here I am in the UK since 2011 and teach yoga in different places.

I completed a Yoga Therapy Diploma course with Yogacampus in 2021.
