Elif Karaoz Ankara
Elif has been a dedicated yoga practitioner since her childhood and a professional who is committed to lifelong learning, aiming to share the healing potential of Yin practices. Her journey started with a scoliosis diagnosis at the age of 9 as a fortunate child being guided by mother about Yoga. After some time with the regular practice, she has noticed amazing transformation not only in the physical body but in all dimensions of her life. The experienced growth and healing have brought an unbearable passion to be a part of sharing Yoga. Yin Yoga, Anatomy, Philosophy, Ayurveda, and Meditation are at the heart of her practice where she also maintains commitment to personal practice to support her continued service as a yoga instructor.
She bases her practice in the traditional approach of Yoga philosophy by gathering innovative and inclusive learning opportunities with scientific approach. For Yin Yoga, she has joined the trainings of Paul Grilley, Suzee Grilley, Bernie Clark, Diana Batts and Sarah Powers in different locations.
Since 2008, she co-owns YogaHouse. As an E-RTY500, she teaches 200hrs Yoga TT, Yin Yoga/Anatomy TT, several other workshops and weekly classes.
