Eleni was born in Athens a month and a half premature and weighed 2 kilograms. She took her first breath a little bit later than the normal. Through yoga she found her breath again.
In her early adulthood, after a car accident, she was diagnosed with cervical disk herniations. She learned to live with them until pain became unbearable. At that time, in the United Kingdom, she tried yoga for the first time and realized that the body itself can heal pain through exercise, individualized practice and the right alignment.
Eleni is a modern day yogini. She graduated from the Faculty of Political Science in 2003 and continued her studies in Brunel, in London where she completed her Msc in Management (2004-2005). In 2013, she completed a 200h Yoga Teacher Training at NYSY Studios with Vivi Letsou (Anusara Yoga). Since then, she has attended seminars about various Yoga Schools such as Yoga Swings (Aerial Yoga), Yoga Kids (Rainbow Kids Yoga), Vinyasa Flow, Ashtanga(Eddie & Jocelyne Stern) and Bhakti.
Focused on her daily yoga practice, she lives on the island of Tinos with Giovani and their dog Riki. She always dreams of destinations and has an endless thirst for exploration.
