My name is Romana and I have been practising yoga for over twenty years. Initially drawn to asanas for the physical challenge, eventually discovering the wholesome world of yoga through pranayama and meditation. Yoga has become a vital tool for finding inner peace in this busy world.
Bala is a Sanskrit word meaning young, powerful, strength of mind, and child-like, among other things. Embracing the essence of bala, I share the transformative practice of yoga with both kids and adults, fostering strong bodies and a mindset of curiosity and inner balance.
Inspired to teach yoga more than a decade ago, I completed 350 hours of Yoga Teacher Training with Inspire Yoga and Wellbeing in 2023 and later, the Zenergy Kids Yoga Teacher Training, Foundation and Advanced, as well as Yoga Therapy Training for kids.
My mission is to cultivate self-belief and a strong sense of self in children through the practice of yoga. By providing them with tools to empower them to navigate life’s challenges with resilience, inner calm and strength. Through yoga, children can develop the skills needed to cope with stress and thrive in all areas of life.
Testimonials
"My daughter found ways to release stress"
I truly feel that it was a wonderful decision for my 10-year-old daughter to start attending Romana’s yoga classes. My daughter has a busy schedule filled with school, tutoring, and studying, and I hoped that yoga would help her release some of her stress. She has always found it difficult to express her emotions and tends to hold a lot inside, often struggling with self-confidence. We even tried counseling in the past, but unfortunately, it didn’t help at all.
However, ever since she started going to Romana’s classes, it’s clear to me that she is slowly but surely growing and changing in a positive way....
"She always comes out with a smile on her face"
My daughter has been attending the Yoga for Teens, weekly sessions, with Romana of Bala Yoga, since the beginning of this year.
Romana is an outstanding, kind and thoughtful yoga teacher who makes her students feel welcome and respected during the classes. Whilst including a variety of challenging poses and activities, her sessions are always fun and enjoyable (for all students). She has taught my daughter many useful techniques on how to relieve stress, how to improve memory and how to remain calm and focused....
