Personal Philosophy

For Samia, yoga is not just “exercise” but rather a way of living life.  As a yoga instructor, Samia strives to transmit her passion for yoga to her students and share her enthusiasm and knowledge to help others improve both their physical and emotional well-being.

Practicing yoga means learning how to look inside ourselves, notice our feelings and sensations, know our inner truth, and also be aware that happiness is inside us.

If you know how to look inside yourself, you are already practicing one of the fundamentals of yoga.  Your yoga instructor can guide you to this inner awareness along with both physical and mental strength through pranayama (breathing techniques) and asanas (yoga postures).  The beauty of yoga is that although the asanas may look different in different body types, yoga is truly for everyone.  Yoga is for you and you are unique and precious.

 

Along with yoga, Samia uses Ayurveda to help her clients understand how we as human beings relate to the natural world around us. We are the five elements: fire, water, ether, air and earth and it is prana (life force energy) which allows us to live.   The way we receive and relate to this life force energy determines the state of our overall health.   With this understanding, we start to develop a different relationship with nature and our own body constitution in order to improve our quality of life.  Ayurveda is for everyone. It is never too late to start taking care of your body and mind.  Ayurveda is for you and you are unique and precious.
