Jeina’s yoga journey began in 2010 when she started to study at Iyengar Center in St. Petersburg, Russia. This provided her with an excellent understanding of human anatomy and biomechanics. In the following years, she became acquainted with other yoga disciplines such as Jivamukti, Ashtanga, Kundalini, and Chinese joint gymnastics as well.
In 2016, Jeina completed the first teaching certification, the Yoga Teacher Training for Beginners from the International Yoga Federation. Becoming a yoga instructor opened her new dimensions of self-discovery through helping others. By studying different bodies, characters, and individual traits, she developed greater respect for the body and psyche.
In 2019 Jeina delved deeper into women’s health, studying under the best teachers in Russia and earning certifications in Women’s Health Yoga Teacher Training and Prenatal Yoga Teacher Training from the Additional Professional Education Training Center, Russia. Shortly afterward, she completed courses with Françoise Freedman from the Birthlight school on Postnatal Recovery, working with scars after cesarean sections, and practices for diastasis, in England.
Her family moved to Canada in June 2022 where she successfully completed the teacher training course at Your Yoga Flow School and received the “200 Hour Yoga Teacher Training, Hatha & Vinyasa Yoga Teacher” certificate.
Having gone through two very different pregnancies and experiencing completely different births, Jeina believes that her knowledge in yoga and women’s health will be beneficial and healing for the local community.
