FLORA KARANIKOS

Flora’s yoga journey started almost 20 years ago in her late 30s whilst raising children and running a cake business. It was a way to come back to ‘the self’ or ‘check in’. Now it continues to be an anchor to more self discovery.

The Iyengar practice relationship has been pivotal in understanding yoga asana and philosophy at a deeper level. This supported style of yoga became crucial to healing an unwell phase of her life, both on an emotional and physical level. It has a therapeutic aspect to it that she continues to explore.

Her decision to partake in the teacher training was to not only deepen her practice, but to fulfil and an underlying urge to share what this wonderful modality has to offer to others. She is grateful for being given the opportunity to continue to learn and to pay it forward. Off the mat she helps her partner run a local eatery and enjoys spending time with grandchildren, family and friends.

Flora is currently undertaking Iyengar Yoga Teacher Training as part of Yogaville’s in house program with Senior Teacher Bronwyn Rust
