My first encounter with yoga decades ago awoke an immediate passion and a deep knowing that I had found my way to&nbsp;well-being in all aspects of life. That first pivotal step on to a yoga mat was the beginning of a long dedicated journey and continuous exploration of yoga. On my path I have been fortunate to practice and study a variety of yoga styles and philosophical traditions with many wise and inspiring masters and teachers here in Sweden and around the globe. I am forever grateful for the insight and guidance that I have been given and continue to receive, study and integrate in my practice, teachings, and lifestyle. The deeper I go, the more awe and reverenceI I feel for this ancient tradition and it’s timeless wisdom and transformative power.&nbsp;



Yoga helps me stay present and aware. Through the practice I have become strong and flexible in body and mind. It has also taught me to listen inward and trust my inner knowing. But above all, yoga opens the heart. And an open heart wants to give. My experience and the benefits from yoga is simply too good to keep to myself. It is a pure joy to share my knowledge and be of service for others in discovering yoga and their true selves.&nbsp;



I am a full time certified 500+ teacher with extensive training in hatha, ashtanga, rocket vinyasa, yin yoga, mindfulness and more.&nbsp;My job as a teacher is not to point out how something should look or be exactly, but to guide students in exploration, awareness and to gain trust in their own inner teacher. Yoga is not about conforming to a certain shape or ideal, we have enough of that already. It is to bring forth each individual’s unique essence and creativity. My intent is first and foremost to inspire this process. That could be through self observation in a more or less challenging posture sequence, by breathwork, reflection or meditation. All this can be an intense experience in many ways, but it is never about accomplishment.&nbsp;



There are many ways to reach a state of yoga and as each individual is unique with unique abilities, needs and life situations, so I strongly feel that the practice works best in humbly adapting to these circumstances – not the opposite. My classes are known to be intuitive, playful, and dynamic, but not demanding. Allow and trust are key aspects, as is exploring different entries and variations. I love to weave in philosophy, sometimes a poem or a story from the mythology mixed with the flow of postures and exercises.&nbsp;



It is a gift we have been given, this wonderful system for transformation and its methods to help eliminate blockages, patterns and beliefs and come back to our natural state of balance and harmony. To feel true peace and freedom to be who we so perfectly are already.&nbsp;

“ My own encounter with yoga was life-changing. In a time of illness, pain and grief, yoga helped me regain my energy and vitality and a deepened awareness in relation to myself, my body and life. Through breathing, movement and a more conscious presence, I was able to loosen tension and release difficult and stuck emotions. I found through yoga, within myself, tools that I use daily and that make me feel more equipped to face life with a little more equanimity, awareness, and gratitude. The beauty of yoga's tools is that we all have access to these within us. As a teacher you sow a seed, get the opportunity to show the way to this power we all possess.” /Maria Strand

With over 500 hours of yoga teacher training, and many years of personal practice. I experience yoga as a source of stability in an ever changing world, a journey, and a reconnection to my authentic self.



We each have our own journey, with our own obstacles and for me yoga provides for a safe platform to work through those obstacles, giving an opportunity for growth.&nbsp; As we dedicate ourselves to the practice we gain strength, we increase flexibility, and we develop insight. It is when the lessons we learn on the mat begin to reflect in daily life that we truly see the practice taking form.



I lead a mindful Vinyasa flow with focus on intelligent sequencing and practical alignment. The practice provides a wonderful platform to explore the relationship between breath, body, and mind, and allows the space to go deep into the practice on all levels.

Her background comes from the fitness industry, as an aerobic instructor, personal trainer and running coach. She has also played tennis since she was a little girl.



Yoga was the thing that came last among all her many skills in training. It was yoga, that glued everything together and also where she depened her understanding for the body as a whole. &nbsp;She also works as a personal trainer and a journalist. Shirin recently started a podcast called #tränamedshirin which can be found everywhere that you can find podcasts.



She is focused in teaching you to be more mindful with your body, a way to get to know yourself better. To build strength from the inside and out and combining it all with the breath. Shirin also lets humor take place in the class. She compares her classes with a feel good film.



The warm up, the peak, as well as the cooling down. Translated into the introduction of the characters, and the most exciting part with love, betrayel, humor, relationships and challenges, where everything eventually ends happy. You will leave the class feeling happy, relieved and relaxed.
