Maria Averina
Maria Averina is a yoga & pilates instructor and a plant medicine guide.
Her yoga journey started at the age of 17 when she followed her first class and was completely mind blown by the depth of the practice. She felt she needed a few more years to be able to understand it fully and dive deeper, so she came back to yoga at the age of 21 and never left since then.
Yoga helped Maria to find the way to her true self, to see her path which was not always clear and stay connected to her body and heart in the challenging times of her life.
In her Yin classes Maria will encourage you to turn inwards, connect with your body and help you to still your mind. Maria integrates different meditation techniques into her classes, so expect seated meditations as well as mindfulness practices during the poses. Maria loves to work with different themes. So next to your physical practice expect learning about chakras, meridians and Ayurveda.
Maria has a dancer’s background. After getting a back injury, she had to stop dancing indefinitely. However, the injury helped her to gain more awareness of the body and discover the practice of Pilates which opened a new perspective on physical training. By applying the principles of Pilates Maria managed to find balance between strength, stability and flexibility, gain more control over the movement and release unnecessary tension. And now she is eager to help you do the same in her weekly Pilates classes!
