My name is Jolanda Cristiano, Yoga teacher and co-founder of Yoganda.  My yoga journey began in the living room of my London flat, with books and online tutorials.

It was 2011 and since then, it’s been love!

I’ve always been passionate about wellness, sport (I was a volleyball player before ending up in an office), so I started practising yoga more often, in a local studio, at the park and at home, discovering that yoga is not a sport, it’s a way of life!

I felt that I was happier, stronger and the more I practised, the better I felt. I was becoming a “yoga addicted”

A few years later, in 2017, I decided to quit my job as event manager, hang up my high heels and move to a place where I didn’t need them anymore: India.

A fantastic experience, studying Traditional Hatha yoga and Ashtanga yoga with extremely knowledgeable yogis and gurus. They inspired me to be a transformer, not a teacher, to share not to teach.

I learned yoga asanas, pranayama, yoga philosophy, meditation, all most of all I learned to be happy with small things. All these are powerful tools that everyone can use for living a healthy and happy life.

Today, I am a happy yogi and teacher. As a natural seeker, I devoted my life to studying and experiencing yoga, to learn and share my wisdom for everyone to enjoy.

It is pure blessing to share my journey with you.

Much love,

Jolanda Cr
