My name is
Koula Kyriakidou

My yoga journey started long before I even realized, just as I had taken my first steps.

Since then, I have been constantly moving. My passion unquestionably began with gymnastics and a fascination with inversions and acrobatics. As I grew older, I realized that this was my own way of concentrating, slowing down, and hearing my own voice in order to begin discovering who I was and to develop the capability to view the world with compassion and understanding. It was as if there was an innate wisdom whispering to me in my tiny body, still only a child, that at the centre of our being is joy, the pure and radiant truth... that can only be discovered through movement, the flip side, and the unique.

As a result, everything I had experienced since I was a little child began to take shape; gradually and intuitively guiding me along the path of yoga. Through the daily practice of yoga you begin to get to know parts of yourself. By putting the pieces of who you are together you create the puzzle of your life. Each piece of you, big or small, corresponds to one of your feelings.

This is how you begin to hold in your hands your own personal map, a manual of the anatomy of yourself. You discover who the self is, how to continuously grow and that's where transformation begins.

Yoga is a voyage to the essence of who you are. A journey which starts from the external body and gradually continues inwards.

Yoga teaches acceptance, tolerance, perseverance and consistency, and it requires a sense of humour, trust and unwavering faith. Without a doubt, my own practice taught me to be joyful, to smile from the heart, to accept myself, to change, and to strive to be the best version of myself.

My objective is to be able to offer a small taste of my own little paradise to those of you who choose to accompany me on this journey; the journey of self-discovery that some call yoga, while others call life.
