      'My yoga journey with Ivana started just 14 months ago at a time in my life when i was feeling anxious, without focus and was deeply unhappy. I soon realised from my once a week class that yoga was beneficial in so many ways, great for both the body and the mind, and that it is virtually impossible to be unhappy whilst practising or whilst around Ivana, who can only be described as like a ray of sunshine!

After a while, I decided to do Ivana's Delve Deeper, which she tailored to my needs and involved weekly one-to-one lessons, specific flows, pranayama and meditation practices. It was the step I needed to take to fully commit to my practice and the results have been life changing. 

I now attend pretty much every class I can and through Ivana have become involved with other yogis in Kirtan and Satsang sessions. I am even going to be attending a yoga Ashram later this year. 

This is a truly wonderful journey and I am grateful to Ivana for her support and encouragement. Not only have I gained a wonderful teacher, but also a good friend.'

'Not only is Ivana a wonderful teacher she is also a wonderful person. Her teaching is clear, calm and allows the student to learn at their own pace. But in addition what sets Ivana apart, I believe, is the care and compassion she gives so generously. I began my work with her during a time of some worry and she adapted some of our sessions to meet my needs at that time. Whether in a group session or one to one and whatever the stage of your yoga journey, I highly recommend Ivana.'

Delve Deeper
Yoga & well-being through the lens of Ayurveda

Private Tuition, Mentoring with Ivana , Norwich

Ayu (Life) Veda (Knowledge) is the combination of balance and harmony of the body, senses, mind and soul.

Ayurveda is the most sacred science of life and sister science to Yoga.  Ayurveda's concern is alleviating both bodily and mental diseases, and promoting both physical and psychological well-being. Yet, the ultimate goal of classical Ayurveda, like classical Yoga, is Self-realization - the highest form of Self-healing.

Ayurveda shows us how to attain optimal health as a wholesome foundation and sufficient energy to pursue the yogic quest.

 

Ayurvedic Yoga - a more therapeutic approach to practice.

There will be four primary goals:

 1. to balance the doshas (doshas are what causes things to spoil or get imbalanced)

2. to improve the structural condition of the body

3. to facilitate the movement and development of prana (life force/energy)

4. to calm and energize the mind

These practices and mentoring will be all about adapting your asana (physical postures), pranayama (breath work), relaxation and meditation to your unique constitution.  You will gain insight and, most importantly, learn how to apply the 4 pillars of health according to Ayurveda to your daily routine, diet and lifestyle.

4 pillars of Health:

1.  Ahar - Diet (in Ayurveda we look at all that we consume through our 5 senses and nourishment through them)

2. Vihar - Ayurvedic lifestyle & routines

3. Nidra - Appropriate sleep

4. Brahmacharya - Management of our energy - both in our physical actions and in our minds

My deepest intention behind this offering of commitment to yourselves is that you gather knowledge and tools of knowing how to reclaim your time and, through it, reclaim your life full of vitality, radiance and sweet remembrance of your sacred Self. (read here about some of my Morning Routines)

What to expect:

  • 1  Ayurveda Consultation (90 minutes) 

  • 1 private class (75 minutes) a week, 12 in total

  • Home practice/homework (depending on the individual)

  • Handouts available upon request

  • 3 free entries to any of my weekly classes (excluding the special events and workshops)

Investment: £750

Please get in touch for a discussion/meet-up to get to know each other a little before deciding if we would like to share our time, presence and commitment over the period of 3 months.

  'I undertook a series of one to one private yoga classes with Ivana from January this year, after attending ‘Soulful Sunday’ classes for over a year. Ivana taught me to feel at ease within my own body much more than I thought was possible. Her positive energy and quiet spirituality sustained me through the winter months and an extremely hectic work and family schedule. Ivana is completely accepting and non-judgemental. She quickly ascertained that I needed very gentle instruction (physically and mentally) in our weekly workday sessions and was a consistent source of strength, calm and wisdom. She also has a very good sense of humour and fun which means the classes are not overly serious or dull. Alongside the physical yoga (which was amazing and easy to follow, but also just enough of a challenge) the breathing techniques and routines (body brushing, mindful eating, practising gratitude and mindfulness) have lasted way beyond the actual sessions. This represents amazing value for money. I can honestly say that Ivana’s sessions are like a form of 21st-century magic! You emerge feeling like you can face the world again. Whilst I haven’t practised yoga during ‘lockdown’ (I’m a bit too clumsy and unbalanced to do it without guidance!) I have managed to keep up the breathing and mindfulness Ivana taught me. This has contributed to my losing 2 stone and finding a sense of equilibrium and peace which Ivana planted the seeds of this winter. If you’re thinking of trying a class but are a bit self-conscious or worried about not being ‘good enough’ or ‘fit enough’ then Ivana is the teacher for you! Her classes are way more than just yoga; they’re life affirming, accepting and incredibly rewarding.

 SWASTHA -
One year-long journeying and guidance towards true health

 

Sunrise Yoga with Ivana, Norwich .jpg

‘Swastha’ – abiding in one’s natural state or true health ~ Swa - my own self,  stha - to be situated

 

Welcome to the introduction to  Swastha – a one-year-long journeying and personal guidance towards true health.

What inspired me to create this year-long journeying are two things. The first one, is hearing from my students, friends and even yoga teachers how difficult is to maintain a sustainable practice and to evolve with it. Despite all the great benefits our practice provides us, we may still experience resistance or lack of will to do it.

My desire is that this offering will help you to rekindle the fire of inspiration, willpower and trust (sraddha).  

The second one is my own yearlong commitments and explorations. I have so far done 5. Committing to certain teachings, practices and to my own intentions. This had a significant effect on all levels of my being (physical, mental, emotional, and spiritual). In my opinion, this is where the ‘progress’ lies. It is in our intention and commitment. No one else will do the ‘work’ for us. You will create and establish a meaningful self-regulatory framework that allows you to grow holistically in all areas of your life. This is an opportunity to take a conscious charge of how you want to feel and be in Life.

Recognise these processes of everyday living as opportunities and the way to help us become established in our true Self. Truly know how to look after our physical body, point our energy in the right direction, attention to our senses, contentment of mind and desire of our soul. These are the requirements of being in our balanced natural state – Swastha.

This is the promise and process of embodying this year-long offering. The commitment is YOURS.

 

It would be my sweetest honour to inspire and guide you on this journey of healing and self-expansion through the practices of Yoga and Ayurveda which I have been studying, living, and authentically sharing over the last decade. 

What is included:

4 x 3 month long modules – Body, Prana, Mind & Soul

12 x 90 minutes private Yoga practices ~ we meet on a monthly basis

4 x Ayurvedic consultations, first one 90 minutes, 3x 60 minutes follow-ups scheduled throughout the year

 

At the beginning of each module, you will receive a handout of asana practice and a recording of the pranayama and meditation so you can continue to practice at home. The next two sessions of the module will be all about delving deeper and refinement.

 

You will be introduced to Ayurvedic lifestyle and wellness practices to support your health, practices and day-to-day living in four Ayurvedic consultations spread throughout the year ~ we go with the pace that suits you.

 

My intention is that you commit to these practices and build up your own daily sadhana – a spiritual practice, that brings inner and outer evolution in the direction of true health and self-knowing – ‘swastha’.

 

Module 1 

Body – Heal 

Therapeutical ayurvedic asana practice is used to reduce all doshas and use our life force (prana) in healing pranayama and tantric meditation practice to enhance the greater health of your physical vessel.

Module 2

This offering will be filled with self-exploration, acceptance, releasing our limitations and conditioning, truth, the wisdom of lived experiences, deep listening, embodiment, and devotion. Ideally, you have a minimum of 3 years of yoga experience.

 

Investment in full is £1,108 upon your booking or 2 instalments of £650; the first is paid upon booking and the second needs to be paid before entering into module 3. The last option is to pay quarterly, with  4 instalments of £350, which would have to be paid before each module. 

Express your interest by sending an email and feel free to reach out with any questions. I'm here for you and more than happy to schedule a brief phone call or meet-up to explore together whether this offering aligns with your needs and aspirations. Looking forward to connecting with you!

'Ivana is an amazing soul to work with and gets you to exactly where you need to be by guiding you in the right direction. So intuitive.

Thank you .'

Commit to your practice again and again.....

To know yourself as the being underneath the thinker,

the stillness underneath the mental noise, the love and joy underneath the pain,

is freedom, salvation, enlightenment.
