Thank you for being here.
Hello,
I am Pari and I am so happy you’ve found my page.
I am a yoga teacher, mother and space holder with over a decade of experience teaching in studios, on retreat and online.
I first found yoga 20 years ago after losing grip of reality during a low point at university. The practice was my saviour. Since then, yoga has punctuated the various chapters of my life: my stress reliever after a full day in the city, my travel companion across 14 countries and then into motherhood - my guide, my anchor and my solution to a happy healthy pregnancy and support during the rollercoaster of postnatal life.
I became an accredited yoga teacher at Sampoorna Yoga in Goa, 10 years ago. The experience I had here was life affirming, I knew I wanted to be a yoga teacher. Since then I have completed my 50 hour adjustment and alignment course, my pre + postnatal trainings and am currently working on my Yin Yoga teacher training.
But what does it mean to teach? To me, it’s creating space for people to journey into the true self, a daily practice to connect mind, body, soul. I also think the practice gives us a moment to feel unity with community - which in a world dominated by AI and social media, feels more important than ever to me.
I am currently living in Portugal, teaching Vinyasa yoga, pre/post natal yoga, slow flow, yin and yoga nidra at retreats and in studios around the Lisbon area.
Previously, I worked as a teacher in london at Hot Pod Yoga, More Yoga, East of Eden and ran my own retreat days at Wild Roots in Hackney.
“I attended an online pregnancy yoga class with Pari at a tricky time of my pregnancy, I work in the NHS and it was the peak of Covid-19. Pari guided me through a meditation class with care and I left feeling so blissfully relaxed it was great! I also found the breathing techniques and meditation visualisation vital tools for before, during and after labour ”
