Sunnyside Yoga

I have always been a very active person all my life. Having grown up on the west coast of Sweden I practically spent most of my childhood spare time out-doors and developed a great love for a number of out-door activities such as running, swimming, long distance cycling, skiing and hiking. I was also involved in martial arts for many years which gave me my first insight into an eastern based philosophy and practice system.

I started attending yoga classes in the late 90's but never fully developed a regular practice. I believe that part of the reason for this was that I generally felt that the more I exhausted myself and the harder the challenge the better it was and I didn't feel that I got that from yoga at the time.

That all changed in 2007 when I was diagnosed with breast cancer. During my recovery a health practitioner recommended me to take up yoga to aid the healing process. She advised me to contact a teacher that she knew.
