ABOUT IDA
I’m Ida Farneman; a certified yoga teacher, physiotherapy student and a yoga therapist in training. It was when I did my yoga teacher training in India I quickly noticed how the practice affected me, not only physically but also emotionally and spiritually. My experience is that through the daily practice of movement, breath, stillness, as well as sharing and reflection I started connecting to myself in a different and more holistic way, tools I knew I had to share with the world and the people around me.
It is this understanding and exploration of how healing and grounding yoga can be that we will work with in our sessions together.I’m a firm believer that yoga is for everybody and can help us feel more centered and connected to ourselves and the world around us. All you need to do is book a time and show up as you are, and we start from there.
Sessions can be held in Swedish or English.
