About the teacher
Faye started yoga 12 years ago and very soon has decided to fully dedicate her time and energy to her yogic journey.
Having completed her first training in India, she has been practicing for over a decade several types of yoga (especially Vinyasa and Ashtanga) and started teaching seven years ago.
After attending numerous workshops and classes with great yoga teachers (Kino MacGregor, Dylan Werner, Laruga Glaser, Iain Grysak, Savvas Giantsis and many others) she has created her own personal style of Vinyasa, which is based on the structured and anatomical approach of the asanas and her own unique creativity.
