What people say
about us:
Facilitators & Yoga Teachers
Over the last few years, we have held over 55 Retreats in Sri Lanka and many workshops throughout Europe.
Our mission is to share the power of the breath, mind and body to create awareness for ourselves and others.
Alex
Alex's passion is discovering the power of the breath, emotions, mind, and anything our bodies consume. He spent more than 14 years practising meditation, which, for him, is the foundation for almost everything. He is a certified yoga teacher in different yoga styles, and to deepen his knowledge of working with the breath and the body, he has completed the Breathwork Teacher Training under Anthony Abbagnano at Alchemy of Breath School and further studied with other breathwork schools (BioDynamic Breathwork(BBTRS), Wim Hof and Dan Brule).
Alex worked for many years in hospitality and as a chef for a restaurant in Germany, specialising in dishes for people with food allergies. His passion for healthy food is always part of his retreats.
He has also studied computer science and business informatics twice and has run his own web and IT service company for the past ten years. He knows the challenges of a busy and stressful life. For him, meditation and using the breath are the foundation for dealing with nearly every situation in life. From attending many retreats, workshops, and courses worldwide, he combines everything he learned and will share from these traditions, which have further developed through his practice.
Isayaka (Jess)
Isayaka is a student of life, a very experienced yoga teacher and a medicine Medicine Womban (Women) carrying cacao, kambo, mellipona, song and prayer in devotion to the good of all life. She shares the practice of embodied yoga from an intuitive place of deep personal study that has spanned 12 years of traditional Hatha yoga, Yin Yoga, meditation, Bhakti/devotion, vinyasa flow, womb yoga, traditional Chinese medicine, tantra, philosophy, free form movement, ecstatic dance, somatics, trauma release therapy, mind-body centring and somatic psychotherapy. She has a passion for movement & is grateful to her body as one of her greatest teachers in this life. She bows to all the teachers on her path, and believes you cannot repay a teacher in 10000 lives.
Her classes are carried by her love of music and through movement, music, poetry, imagination, sound and song, through which we can inner-stand so much of the mystery. She invites you to get lost and found and find new embodied pathways of relating to life through the practice. Moving with the cycles that weave us all, Isayaka embodies earthy wisdom and believes all things lead back to simple truths that the earth herself reveals to us when we move at her pace and listen with reverence. Her own business “Wild Medicina” is an outpouring of the teachings and practices that have supported her journey towards wholeness.
Dushyantha
Dushyantha is a dedicated yoga teacher with a rich background in diverse styles of yoga and a deep passion for holistic movement. His spiritual journey began over seven years ago through Vipassana meditation and an exploration of Buddhist philosophy, which laid the foundation for his mindful approach to teaching and practice.
He embarked on his yoga journey with a Yoga Synergy teacher training at Lanka Yoga, a modern fusion of Qi Gong, Vinyasa, Hatha, and Iyengar yoga. This integrated approach resonated deeply with Dushyantha, aligning seamlessly with his prior experience in meditation and sports. The dynamic yet balanced methodology of Yoga Synergy allowed him to deepen his understanding of movement, mindfulness, and the connection between body and breath.
Under the mentorship of Simon Oliver Borg, the founder of Yoga Synergy, Dushyantha developed a profound appreciation for yoga's anatomical and physiological aspects, with a particular focus on spinal health and movement. This passion led him to further his studies last year with a 200-hour Hatha and Yin Yoga training, broadening his expertise in slow, intentional practices that support balance and restoration.
Marilena
Marilena is an experienced yoga teacher with a passion for sharing the transformative power of yoga and movement. She discovered yoga through training as an Ayurvedic health consultant, igniting a deep interest in Eastern philosophy. She completed a 200-hour Yoga Teacher Training in Sri Lanka, specialising in Synergy Yoga, which profoundly shifted her understanding of the modern human body and highlighted the uniqueness of each individual. This insight led her to cultivate a teaching style that embraces exploration and free movement. Additionally, she enriched her practice by completing a 300-hour teacher training in Ashtanga Vinyasa in Bali, allowing her to incorporate traditional elements into her teachings. Right now, Marilena is teaching Yoga Teacher Training in Sri Lanka and is focused on sharing her knowledge to help others grow within the yoga community.
Alex & Martina are both certified by
Alchemy of Breath.
The retreat is organized
and facilitated by “husma breathwork retreats”:
Breathwork
Breathwork can be described as a portal and door to our internal and external worlds. In one session you can give space, expansion, and opportunity for shifts, movement, insights, and change. You have the chance to come back to your body that holds you so dearly and works non-stop so that you may exist here and now.
Let us say thank you by giving our bodies their most nutrient superfood… air.
