ELOISA ISKANDAR authorized teacher KPJAYI level 2
Eloisa is a dedicated practitioner and teacher of Ashtanga Yoga. Originally from Venezuela, Eloisa extensive experience as a Mysore lead teacher in several shalas around Europe while she returns to Mysore every year to study the Ashtanga Yoga system with Sharat Jois.
Eloisa was born and raised in Caracas Venezuela, she started to practice ashtanga in 2011 and since then dedicated her life entirely to it, not only to the asanas but to the whole spiritual aspects that it involves. Yoga helped her to become a more centered and focused person, cultivate healthy relationships with her family and friends, having a peaceful routine with less stress and see every part of her life as a whole in order to understand how one thing can affect another allowing her to find more emotional stability and share it with those around her.
Before Yoga, Eloisa was a preschool teacher in a constructivist school where teachers and kids builded the knowledge together by creating meaningful experiences that allowed the kids to apply what they were learning to real life and adapting every activity to their particular needs and interests, that’s why she fell in love with Mysore Style, because it is a place to build a practice which adapts to everyone’s particular need and help them develop and thrive with a personal focus allowing the practice to mold to every person different body and mind.
She has had the amazing opportunity of learning by teaching with very experienced teachers like Laruga Glasser, Przemek Nadoldy, Steve Laphan, Ricardo Martinez. She also assisted Sharath Jois in KPJAYI this year in February. But the most important for her is that she is married to the practice, she does it every morning without excuses, because she’s convinced that to share yoga with other students the most important is to have enough experience which is given by the self practice, this meaning not just the asanas but the practice of having a clean body a clean mind and a healthy lifestyle. Every year the she is in Mysore she assists to Philosophy and chanting classes with Dr. M. Jeyashree and Prof. M. Narasimha in Anatha Research Foundation, thanks to this she learned to see reality in a more clear way and to find peace in the most difficult moments.
In her free time Eloisa loves to cook and share with her friends, write romantic things about her life, watch stand up comedies, go the nature and enjoy a nice view, go for scooter rides and eat peanut butter with dates.
