Words on teacher Svetlana from her teacher:
`Svetlana is a fully certified Yogic Arts teacher of the Vira Vinyasa, or Warrior Flow style yoga system, as taught by myself, system creator, Duncan Wong.
I have personally trained her over the past decade to what I consider to be an advanced level, with a personal note that Svetlana has an inherent gift to excel in the healing field and an impressive ability to pierce through the outer limitations of structure and penetrate the deeper meaning and connection between movements and theory.
I recommend her with my full authority as a respected teacher in the global yogic field during the past three decades.
Thanks,
Duncan`
