YogaJaya Workshops -
Online Bookings

Ivafs aim as a yoga teacher is to be able to help initiate the process of transformation within every student. She invites all to participate not only in asana (poses) but also in the practice of pranayama (breath control), and Dhyana (meditation).

Ivafs interests have always been in body movement. From an early age, she explored all facets of body awareness, from ballet to jazz dance, African dance, gymnastics and yoga.

Her interest in health, nutrition and alternative medicine began when she studied Physiology at McGill University in Montreal, Canada. It was also at this time that she was introduced to Yoga by her mother 15 years ago.

Iva has traveled extensively throughout Asia, North America, Europe and Australia. These travels previously brought her to Japan, where she lived for 9 years teaching cross-cultural awareness and running a cafe lounge in the Vision Network Complex where YogaJaya is located. Her experiences opened the doors to many new healing modalities such as fasting and cleansing, which she incorporated into her yoga and meditation retreats in Thailand, Australia ,and the US.
