Sèlia Dos Santos - Lead yoga teacher
Sèlia (@selia_surya) based in Belgium and has been teaching since 2019. Mixing my passions with gardening and my love for secondhand things with yoga trying to transmit my love for nature to students by being the change I want to see in the wold. Half Portuguese, I travels a lot and like to dive into new cultures.
Expect laughter and passion in my light-hearted yoga classes, where I will help you find the internal & external balance of effort & ease. My teachingstyle is strongly rooted in Ashtanga Yoga.
With over six years of dedicated practice and teaching, I offer a grounded and traditional approach to yoga. Rooted in the wisdom of Ashtanga and Vinyasa yoga, my teaching honors the depth and lineage of this ancient practice. I aim to share yoga both on and off the mat, as a way of living with awareness, presence, and integrity. My classes emphasize individual attention, creating a safe and supportive space for every student. I believe in meeting each person where they are, guiding them with care and respect. This is a space for connection, growth, and returning to the essence of the practice.
The surf instructors are local and professional. With their extensive knowledge of the Moroccan coast years of expertise, you can trust that you are in safe hands.
