Ruth's yoga journey began In the summer of 2016 at a shala in the Caribbean and continued into 2018 when she took her first yoga teacher training in Greece. She continuously attends courses to further develop, deepen, and formalize her practice with the teachers who have inspired her, wherever they may be. In the summer of 2020, she started a new 300 hours certified yin yoga education with Kathy Páez and has coordinated several certified teacher trainings in Tromsø together with her. Ruth is also certified in advanced Vinyasa Yoga in the Xuan Lan method. She has been living in Tromsø since 2003 and is proficient

For Ruth, yoga is a journey inward. As a result of the union between the breath and your movements during practice, she believes yoga is the path to learning how to live a grounded life in the present.
In Ruth's yoga classes you will come just as you are, having the opportunity to know yourself, connecting your breath and movements to feel grounded. The main focus is to guide you to experience a conscious practice. Her interest in the anatomy of yoga makes her unique teaching style inclusive for everyone. As no two people are the same, their practice should reflect their individual needs.
"Our practice should be alive and adaptable to our needs as we go through the seasons of our lives".
